Samuel Ogden : ウィキペディア英語版 | Samuel Ogden Col. Samuel Ogden (December 9, 1746 — December 1, 1810) was a businessman, developer and land speculator who fought on the side of the patriots during the American Revolutionary War. ==Biography== Ogden served as a Colonel of the New Jersey Militia during the Revolutionary War, and was later prominent in the iron business, founding the Boonton Iron Works in 1770 on six acres of land located along the Rockaway River, near Boonton, New Jersey. In 1775, he married Euphemia Morris (1754-1818), who was a sister of Gouverneur Morris. After his brother Abraham Ogden served as Commissioner to the Indians in Northern New York, Samuel and Abraham, along with Gouverneur Morris and others, purchased a large tract of land in New York south of the Saint Lawrence River, seeking to develop and then sell off the land to settlers. One of the principal settlements in this tract, the City of Ogdensburg, New York, was named after Samuel Ogden.〔
