EspañolSAMUEL JENNINGS
'Samuel Jennings' was born in England and died in Burlington, New Jersey, in 1708. Edward Byllynge appointed Jennings to the position of the first deputy-governor of West Jersey. In 1684, Byllynge removed him from his position as deputy.
Jennings later became involved in the controversy started by George Keith and Thomas Budd, siding with the Quakers. As a result, he was tried and convicted. In 1694, Jennings was sent to London for his six day trial. He ably defended his position, and published “The Case Stated” while in London.
He later actively sought the removal of Lord Cornbury from his position as Governor of New Jersey.
