Samuel Malott, a prominent citizen of Gosfield township, County of Essex, belongs to one of the historic and interesting families of that locality, and its story is of three brothers, Peter, Theodore and David, who, with two sisters, Catherine and Deliah, made their way to Detroit soon after the close of the American Revolution.
...
     Theodore Malott came to Gosfield township in 1794, locating in the eastern part of the township on Lot 13, and also acquiring land in Mersea township... He married Catherine Wigle, a member of another of the prominent families, and to them were born: ... Peter, the father of our subject...
     Peter Malott, father of our subject, was born May 11, 1803, on Lot 13, Gosfield township, and grew up on the home place, his boyhood being given over to the clearing and cultivating of the land. He enjoyed few educational opportunities, but did, for a limited period, attend Master McMurry's school. When he became of age, he drew a Govenment lot on Talbot Street, where he resided some years. In 1834 he sold that place and bought the property where our subject now resides, consisting of 134 acres in Lot 19, Concession 1, Western Division, purchasing this property of William Hall, who had drawn it from the Government.
     On this property Mr. Malott built a log house which he occupied with his family until 1858, when he built, with the help of our subject, a larger house which was occupied until 1881, when the present handsome brick house was built. With the help of his sturdy sons, the father cleared the greater part of this farm. In 1864 he gave up active farming and moved to Cottam, where he died May 10, 1881. He took part in the military occurrences of the locality, and was present at the taking of the schooner "Ann" in 1837.
     In Gosfield township Peter Malott married Elizabeth La Marsh, a daughter of Samuel La Marsh. Her parents settled on Cedar Creek in 1806, when she was a year and a half old; she died May 14, 1892, aged eighty-seven years. Their children were as follows: (1) Henry resided at Kingsville until his death in 1900; he married Mary Ulch, and had two daughters, Mary and Elizabeth. (2) Simon lived in Tilbury East and died there in 1898; he married Maria Dustin, and had eight children, Peter, Oliver, William, Ozias, Norman, Andrew, Matilda and Jane. (3) Catherine is the deceased wife of Moses Rose, of Gosfield. (4) Rebecca is the widow of John Upcott, and resides near Olinda. (5) Prideaux died at his home near Brooklyn, Michigan, Oct. 16, 1903, aged seventy years; he married Mary Fox, but had no children. (6) Samuel is the subject of this sketch. (7) Solomon married Fanny Clark and had two children, Andrew and Luetta; they reside in Detroit. (8) Susanna is the wife of Michael Baltzer, of Gosfield South. (9) Hannah married John Hickmott, of Gosfield South, and has had four children, Ruby (deceased), Ida (deceased), Jason and Todd. (10) Mary married, first, Henry Quine, and had four children, George, Henry, Anna and Mary; she married, second, Louis Arner, of Malden township, by whom she has no children. (11) James, of Gosfield North, married (first) Annie Mills, and had two children, Melville and Flossie; he married (second) Phoebe Reid.
     Samuel Malott was born Feb. 14, 1835, on the place where he now lives. He enjoyed common school advantages, in a log building standing just east of the present stone school, and located on part of his present farm. At the age of twelve years he was considered able to do his share in teh clearing of the land, and he continued to farm with his father until he was twenty-seven years of age. He then bought 100 acres of the home place, and in 1890 he bought an additional 100 acres, located just east of the other tract. Mr. Malott has always been an industrious, careful farmer, and has met with well deserved prosperity. Although past middle life he still enjoys active work, and is ably assisted by his son Ernest, whose modern ideas and practical methods are combined with his father's experience. In addition to his large farm, Mr. Malott owns property in Kingsville, and is one of the substantial men of the township.
     On Nov. 2, 1862, Mr. Malott married Amanda McCormick, daughter of Matthew McCormick, of Colchester South. They have one son, Ernest, born May 8, 1866, who resides on the home place. He married Malinda, daughter of Benjamin Wigle, and has three children: Samuel Earl, born Feb. 11, 1888; Carl Fayette, born Jan. 1, 1899; and Gertrude, born April 20, 1901...

Among them were: Samuel, who died in Ohio; John, who died in Mersea township; Joseph, who attained the age of ninety-four years, and passed away in Gosfield township; Elizabeth, who married Peter Malott, of Gosfield township; and Rachel.
