When a young man of twenty he came to Cincinnati and entered into the drug house of Ashton, Cleveland and Co., on the south-west corner of Fifth and Main streets. Mr. Cleveland, who was a member of the firm, was the uncle of Grover Cleveland, the President, and came from that good old Democrat County of Clermont. When he became of age, Mr. Burdsal went into business for himself and was for a time on Main Street. Afterward he moved to No. 409 Main Street, opposite the Court House, and for fifty two years has occupied these premises consecutively. Five years ago he celebrated his golden wedding at which time Mr. Dunlap, now of Cedarville, who was one of his groomsmen, was present. In the early days of the Volunteer Fire Department Mr. Burdsal was an enthusiastic member and was for many years the Treasurer of the Sevens." Samuel Burdsal was the son of Joshia Burdsal (Trenton, New Jersey) and Hannah Williamson of Pennsylvania. The couple had two daughters and three sons.

Harrison (President of the US); various judges and noted lawyers, many additional generals and various governors, as well as Samuel Clemens.
