Joined Methodist-Episcopal Church 1817 (Genesee Conference), received licence as preacher 1820-21, admitted into full connection with the church in 1823 In 1828* moved to Salem MI where he lived for several years and was a preacher within the Detroit Conference - In 1839 the Mich. Annual Conference under the leadership of the strongly pro-southern Bishop Joshua Soule refused to ordain Samuel Bibbins or Marcus Swift due to their strong abolitionist views. They thus left the Conf and formed a branch of the American Wesleyan Church (which was known to be very active in the Underground Railway) out of his cabinet shop in Plymouth. Samuel brought nearly half of the membership of his Northville church with him. In 1867 Samuel and Elisha Bibbins and 5 other ministers rejoined the Conf in an emotional ceremony.
lv Salina NY 1820, likely Warsaw NY 1823, Salem MI 1828*, Plymouth MI 1839-1856, Romulus MI 1856 until his death - he bought several properties in Romulus 1856-60 (he also listed residences in Ida and Ontonagon MI) * 1828 date not certain - not listed in 1830 MI census. A Samuel Bivens listed in Middlesex, Yates Co. NY in 1830 census with children of the applicable age. A Rev "Charles" Bibbins was listed as the minister of the 2nd Methodist Church of Potter, Yates Co in 1829 in some anniversary publications. Potter is next to Middlesex. This could well be Rev Samuel.
