He married Sarah J. Baugher on June 22, 1813 in Livingston County, Kentucky. In the Spring of 1829 the family moved to the Coulterville area of Randolph County, Illinois, where Samuel continued his farming. According to Portrait and Biographical record of Randolph, Jackson, Perry and Monroe Counties, Illinois, the biographical sketch of his son, John J. Woodside, states that he was a member of the Covenanter Presbyterian Church.
