Samuel White (December 1770 – November 4, 1809) was an American lawyer and politician from Wilmington, in New Castle County, Delaware. He was a member of the Federalist Party, who served as U.S. Senator from Delaware. ==Early life and family== White was born December 1770, in Mispillion Hundred, Kent County, Delaware, near Harrington, close to Whitleysburg, the son of Judge Thomas White. The future Methodist Bishop, Francis Asbury, hid in this house during the Revolutionary War years of 1778–1780. Methodists were generally suspected of being Loyalists, and Thomas White was arrested on this charge. While in the White home, Asbury, developed many of the ideas that would shape the future of American Methodism.〔State of Delaware; (Home of Judge Thomas White, Refuge of Francis Asbury. )〕 Converted by Asbury, the previously devout Anglican family became members of the Methodist Church. Samuel White was admitted to the Delaware Bar in 1793 after graduating from Cokesbury College in Maryland. White served two years as a captain in the United States Army, and was named adjutant general of Delaware in 1803. White's father, Judge Thomas White, was a member of the colonial Maryland legislature, the Delaware House of Assembly, the Chief Justice of the Kent County Court of Common Pleas, and delegate to the Delaware Constitutional Conventions of 1776 and 1792.
