LAHM, Samuel, representative, was born in Leitersburg, Md., April 22, 181 2; son of John Lahm, a native of Germany, a mechanic, innkeeper and farmer. Samuel left home in 1830, and went to Franklin county, Pa., where he became a clerk, but returned home on condition that his father should allow him to attend school. In two years he acquired a good English education and taught school. He attended Gettysburg academy and Washington college, Pa., for a short time, and in October, 1835, he settled in the practice of law at Canton, Ohio. He was master of chancery, 1837-41; prosecuting attorney for Stark county, 1841-45; state senator, 1842-44; brigadier-general in the state militia; an unsuccessful candidate for representative in the 29th congress and a representative in the 30th congress, 1847-49. He was married in 1838 to Aimira Webster, daughter of Daniel Brown of Portsmouth, N.H. After his service in congress he retired from active politics, gave up his law practice on account of a failure in his voice, and devoted the remainder of his life to farming and sheep raising. He died in Canton, Ohio, June 16, 1876.Quality: 2
