Samuel Dickens

Samuel Dickens (ca. 1775 – July 22, 1840) was a Congressional Representative from North Carolina; born near Roxboro in Person County, North Carolina around 1775.[1] He was a member of the North Carolina state house of commons from 1813 to 1815, and in 1818. He was elected as a Democratic-Republican to the Fourteenth Congress to fill the vacancy caused by the death of United States Representative Richard Stanford (December 2, 1816 – March 3, 1817). He moved to Madison County, Tennessee in 1820 and died there in 1840.
