  COL. SAMUEL RYAN was born in Killenaule, County Tipperary, Ireland, in 1789. Because of the free expression of his opinions on affairs of State, a serious offense in those days, he was impressed as a British seaman in 1809, and was wounded on board the "Shannon" when the Chesapeake duel was fought, an engagement famous in history. He escaped from the vessel "Newark," on Lake Erie, to the United States and for a time taught school at Sacketts Harbor, New York. He married Martha Johnston in 1823, and in 1826 came to Fort Howard, Wisconsin, where for several years he served as quarter-master. He was the first justice of the peace appointed by Governor Dodge in the territory of Wisconsin, and from 1852 to 1861 was United States Receiver of the land office at Menasha. He assisted in making Indian treaties from 1830 to 1840, notably at Cedar Point, April 3, 1836, and in 1836 was colonel of the Second Regiment of Wisconsin militia. He died in 1876, aged eighty-seven years, recognized as one of the foremost men of his day in Wisconsin. To him and wife six sons and one daughter were born: Samuel, Francis A., James, John C., Henry D., David J. and Martha J.
