SAMUEL J. ASHBROOK, farmer and distiller, P. O. Cynthiana, was born in
Harrison County, Ky., Jan. 13, 1831, son of Aaron Ashbrook, who had seven
children.  Our subject received what education the pioneer log school
houses afforded in the early times, and, being raised a farmer, has
followed that occupation in addition to distilling.  He began life in
moderate circumstances, and by economy and industry has acquired a
competency, he owning at the present time 400 acres of land and a half
interest in a distillery.  Mr. Ashbrook has been a director of the
Harrison County Agricultural and Mechanical Association for twenty years;
a director of Farmers' National Bank since its organization; President
and Treasurer of Ashbrook Mills Road; also Treasurer Trickum Road, and
School Trustee in District No. 7, for several years.  May 8, 1856, he
married, in this county, Susan R. Robertson, born near Cynthiana, in
August 1835, daughter of James Robertson, and from that union have been
born three children: Aaron, George and Minnie.  Self and family are
members of the Christian Church and he is a Democrat.
