Reference Tatman & Moss Bio Dictionary Phila. Architects page 840. This house carpenter and would-be architect appeared in Philadelphia city directories in 1817, the same year he was elected to The Carpenters' Company. His listings in the directories continued through 1819, although The Company carried him as a member until he resigned in 1857. In 1815 the Pennsylvania Hospital determined to erect a special building on the hospital grounds (Spruce between 8th and 9th Sts.) to house Benjamin West's long-promised gift of his painting, "Christ Healing the Sick." According to the Building Committee minutes (June 8,1816), "the house is to be raised agreeably to the Plan exhibited by Samuel Webb the architect to be employed." In July Webb ("architect") submitted a new design in the Gothic style that displeased West; the artist complained of "misapplication of Gothic architecture to a Place where the Refinement of Science is to be inculcated and . . . ought to have been founded on those clear and self-evident Principles adopted by the Greeks." Nonetheless the painting arrived in October,1817, and according to hospital records, Webb served as contractor for the "picture house." Doubt is cast on Webb's role in the final design by the existence of a drawing by C.A. Busby (q.v.) inscribed, "Spruce Street, Sketch of a Design for improving the North Front of the building erected in Philadelphia, to receive Mr. Wests Picture - C.A. Busby - July 1817." In 1821 a competition was announced for the State Penitentiary for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania at Philadelphia. So far as is known, the architects who submitted designs were Charles Loss, Jr., of New York, William Strickland (q.v.), John Haviland (q.v.) and Samuel Webb. The commission was given to Haviland and Webb's plan has not survived. A crude drawing inscribed by Webb does survive at the Academy of Natural Sciences and probably relates to the Academy's alterations of an earlier building in the 1820s. ------------------- City Directory - 1820 - Samuel, carpenter, Key's Alley schoolhouse Rebecca, widow, Key's Alley schoolhouse City Directory - 1845 - Two possibilities: Samuel, conveyancer, 191 N.

By 1769 Wetherill had become a member of the Friendship Carpenters' Company, rising to Treasurer in 1772 and President in 1774.
