4. Hon. Samuel Hafford was born on 6 Apr 1790 in Middleboro, Plymouth Co, Massachusetts, USA (son of Ebenezer Hafford and Priscilla Booth); died on 2 Dec 1871 in Ballville, Sandusky Co, Ohio, USA. Notes:
Fremont Journal, 8 Dec. 1871; AN OLD PIONEER GONE. Mr. Samuel Hafford, who resided at Ballville, departed this life, on Saturday last, at noon. His death had been expected for some time, owing to his advanced age, and at the time stated he passed peacefully away. Mr. Hafford was born in Massachusetts, April 6th, 1790, and he was therefore in his 82d year. In 1836 he removed to this vicinity where he resided ever since. He was a prominent member of the Presbyterian Church of this place, with which he connected himself by letter, immediately after moving here. In 1841 he was elected one of the Elders of the Church, and continued in that capacity until the time of his death, having served the church over thirty years. Notwithstanding the blustering weather of Monday, his funeral was well attended. The funeral discourse was preached by the Rev. Dr. Bushnell, at the Presbyterian Church, after which the body was taken in charge by the Masonic fraternity, and buried with the imposing ceremonies of that order. Brother Hafford was said to be one of the oldest if not the oldest Mason in the country, he having connected himself with the order in 1811, the night he was twenty-one years of age. He had therefore been a member of the order for nearly 61 years. He was one of the charter members of Fort Stephenson Lodge of this city, but sometime after the organization of Brainard Lodge, he withdrew and connected himself with the new lodge in which he retained his membership up till the time of his death. He was widely known, much loved and respected and has passed to his reward at a old age, leaving a rich legacy in his good name, to his surviving family.
