Atlee, Samuel 上市 Deposited
Born in Taunton, Somerset County, England. Married Ann Poole in 1758 or 1759. They had two sons including James Falconer Atlee. Samuel left his wife and children and came to New York City in October, 1783. Married Phebe Willis February 12, 1784. They are believed to have had a son.
Atlee bought property and established a porter brewery in New York City in 1784. That business failed. He went into the coining business in 1787 in partnership with Thomas Machin and others. The brewery property may have been used for an unauthorized mint. Atlee's partnership also left him with considerable debt.
Samuel went to Rupert, Fair Haven, Vergennes, Middlebury, and finally Rutland, Vermont. He died at Rutland.
