Samuel McDowell

Samuel McDowell (October 29, 1735 – September 25, 1817) was a soldier and early political leader in Kentucky. He was the father of Dr. Ephraim McDowell.
McDowell participated in three major wars. He served under George Washington in the French and Indian War, served as an aide-de-camp to Isaac Shelby in Lord Dunmore's War, and was part of Nathanael Greene's campaign in the Revolutionary War. Following the Revolutionary War, he relocated to Kentucky and became a surveyor. Later, he was appointed one of the first district court judges in what would become the state of Kentucky. He became a leader of the movement to separate Kentucky from Virginia, presiding over nine of the state's ten constitutional conventions.
He was a founding trustee of Liberty Hall (later Washington and Lee University), when it was made into a college in 1776.〔 Williams, Richard G (2013). Lexington, Virginia and the Civil War.

==Early life==
Samuel McDowell was born in Pennsylvania on October 29, 1735.〔Ridenbaugh, p. 28〕 He was the son of Captain John McDowell and grandson of Ephraim McDowell, a Scots-Irish patriot in the English Revolution of 1688.〔Speed, p. 56〕 Captain McDowell relocated his family to Virginia in 1737.〔Speed, p. 57〕 Samuel McDowell was well-educated in his youth, at one time studying under Archibald Alexander.〔 In 1743, his father died and he inherited the entire estate, according to the tradition of primogeniture, but chose to divide the estate with his brother and sister.〔''Catalogue'', p. 67〕
McDowell married Mary McClung on January 17, 1754.〔 They had seven sons and four daughters.〔 Sons Joseph, Samuel, Jr. both served in the Revolutionary War.〔Johnson, pp. 1599–1600〕 Joseph also served in the War of 1812, as did the eldest son, John.〔 Samuel, Jr. was also the first United States Marshal in Kentucky.〔Ridenbaugh, p. 32〕 The most famous of McDowell's sons was Dr. Ephraim McDowell, who performed the first ovariotomy.〔 Ephraim McDowell later married the daughter of Isaac Shelby, his father's former commanding officer.〔Ridenbaugh, p. 31〕
He served as a founding trustee of Liberty Hall, formerly the Augusta Academy, when in 1776 it was renamed in a burst of revolutionary fervor and relocated to Lexington, Virginia.〔 Other founding trustees along with McDowell were prominent men including Andrew Lewis, Thomas Lewis, Sampson Mathews, George Moffett, William Preston, and James Waddel. 〔 Williams, Richard G (2013). Lexington, Virginia and the Civil War. The History Press, 2013. Retrieved online http://books.google.com/books?id=SnlXXMRrD3MC&pg=PA22&dq=%22sampson+mathews%22&hl=en&sa=X&ei=a_58VNDGHuHlsAS4_oKQCw&ved=0CDUQ6AEwBjgK#v=onepage&q=%22sampson%20mathews%22&f=false 〕 Finally chartered in 1782, Liberty Hall was again renamed, to Washington College and finally Washington and Lee University. It is the ninth oldest institution of higher education in the country.〔〔Waddell, Joseph A (1902) "Annals of Augusta County, Virginia, from 1726 to 1871 (Waddell's Annals of Augusta County, Virginia, from 1726 to 1871 ), Retrieved October 20, 2012〕
