PRESTON An Aged Resident Of Newton Township. Samuel Rigdon Preston, son of Samuel and Rachel Preston, was born 27, 1829, in Newton Township, Licking county, Ohio, upon the farm where he lived almost his entire life, all except the last sex years.

He joined the M.E. Church many years ago, while Rev. Hall was on the circuit, and during his younger years was a good help the church in its song service and also by his liberal financial support. During the last three years of his life he was stricken with blindness, which he felt was a great affliction. He died March 10, 1903, aged 73 years, 3 months and 13 days.
