|
| 79873 | Samuel Allen, born perhaps circa 1601 in England and of unknown parents, d. of record at Braintree, then part of Suffolk County, now Norfolk County, Mass on the "6th mo., 2d day, 1669 (Aug. 2, 1669), the same day he signed his recorded will. In 1625 Thomas Morton, along with some 30-40 non-Plymouth Pilgrims, parted company with the Pilgrims at Plymouth and established beyond the limits of the Plymouth Colony "Merrymount," subsequently renamed "Mount Wollaston," now encompassed by Braintree and Quincy, Mass. After the 1630 arrival of the Massachusetts Bay colonists, the Town of Boston claimed jurisdiction over "Mount Wollaston." Boston's earliest grants at "the Mount" began in 1634 as large farms for Boston's prominent citizens and clergy. By the year 1639 Boston's grants of land at "the Mount" were for the general settlement of "the Mount," based on 4 acres per family member at a cost of 3 shillings per acre. The earliest known mention of Samuel Allen in New England is on Feb. 24, 1639/40 when the town of Boston granted him, among many others, land at Mount Wollaston [that part now Braintree] consisting of 28 acres to accommodate 7 heads [BTR 49.] On an unknown date and place probably in England, Samuel m. 1) a wife purportedly named Ann Whitmore; both her first and purported maiden name are unproved. She is also claimed to have died at Braintree on Sept. 29, 1641, but no record can be found confirming the latter date as fact. Samuel Allen had the following four known children by his first wife: • i. Samuel Allen, Jr., b. Nov. 10, 1632, d. testate at Bridgewater, Mass. between June 29, 1703, date of his will, and Dec. 21, 1705, date of probate; m. by early 1660, Sarah Partridge, dau. of George Partridge and Sarah Tracy, b. circa 1639 at Duxbury, Mass. She d. Aug. 7, 1722 at Bridgewater, Mass. Ten children of the family, all descendants of Stephen Tracy of the 1623 Little Ann passage to Plymouth, Mass. • ii. James Allen, b. after July 25, 1636, d. July 25, 1714 at Chilmark, Mass., Æ 78 (g.s.); m. by 1662, Elizabeth Partridge, the sister of his brother Samuel's wife, b. after Aug. 8, 1643 at Duxbury, Mass. She d. Aug. 8, 1722 at Chilmark, Mass., Æ 79 (g.s.) Twelve children of the family, all descendants of Stephen Tracy of the 1623 Little Ann passage to Plymouth, Mass. • iii. Sarah Allen, b. Mar. 30, 1639, was living Sept. 16, 1690 at Preston, Conn.; m. after Mar. 7, 1655/56 as his 2nd wife, Josiah Standish, s. of Capt. Josiah Standish of the 1620 Mayflower and his wife Barbara, b. circa 1633 either at Duxbury or Plymouth, Mass. He d. Mar. 19, 1689/90 at Preston, Conn. Eight known, possibly nine, children of the family, all Capt. Myles Standish Mayflower descendants. • iv. Mary Allen, b. circa 1641, was living at Boston, Mass. in 1684 as her husband's widow; m. Jan 24, 1656/57 of record at Weymouth, Mass., Nathaniel Greenfield of Boston, s. of unknown parents. He d. testate July 31, 1684 at Boston, Mass. Five recorded and one unrecorded child of the family at Boston. On an unknown date and place before late 1649, Samuel m. Margaret, the widow of Edward Lamb of Boston, who survived him. Like his first wife, that Margaret's maiden name was French is unproved. They had two known children at Braintree: • v. Joseph Allen, b. May 15, 1650, d. Mar. 20, 1726/7 at Braintree, Mass.; m. 1) Feb. 30, 1671 at Braintree, Rebecca Leader (not Ruth Searles) [*1], and 2) Jan. 27, 1703/4 at Braintree, the widow Lydia (Ford) Holbrook. • vi. Abigail Allen, b. after Jan 25, 1650/1. In his Braintree, Mass. will dated Aug. 2, 1669, Samuel gave to son Samuel £20, to son James £5, to son-in-law Josiah Standish £5 (husb. of dau. Sarah), to son-in-law Nathaniel Greenwood £5 (husb. of dau. Mary), and to unmarried dau. Abigail £30. The balance of the estate he left one-half to wife Margaret and one-half to son Joseph, with Margaret authorized to pay £10 amongst her own Lamb children if she saw need. He named wife Margaret executrix and son Joseph executor of the will. The estate inventory totaling £228.12.09 was taken Aug. 27, 1669. The witnesses to the will and both the executrix and executor gave proof of the will Sept. 16, 1669. [*1] See NEHGR 54 (July 1900): 349-50 for the well developed argument regarding the correct identity of Joseph Allen's first wife. | Allen, Samuel Sr. (I97763)

|
| 79875 | Samuel and Elizabeth Packard are the progenitors of most of the 'Packard's in the USA. There have been questions surrounding the accuracy of published information, going back to Packard history first presented in 1840. This biography accepts as fact the probable conclusions presented by Karle S. Packard in Packard's Progress, Vol. 17 [Feb. 1991], pp. 9-12. Samuel was the third son of George and Mary (Wyther) Packard, baptized 17 Sep 1612 in Stonham Aspal, Suffolk, England. Samuel married Elizabeth (surname unknown) in England. No record of the marriage has been found. Samuel arrived at Boston 10 Aug 1638. The ship was the "Diligent". He came with his wife Elizabeth Packard and "a child". The child is probably Mary. The Packard family first lived in Hingham. About 1654, they moved to Weymouth, where Samuel served as a Selectman for 2 years. About 1664, they moved to Bridgewater, where Samuel spent the rest of his life and served the community in many posts. Samuel and Elizabeth had fourteen children. Packard's Progress makes the case for the birth order of these children and their approximate birth years, based on a study of the baptismal records, marriages, and wills. Only the birth of John was officially recorded. The first 12 children were born in Hingham. John and Nathaniel were born in Weymouth. None were born in Bridgewater. Mary - @1637 Elizabeth - @1639 Samuel - @1641 Hannah - @1643 Israel - @1645 Jael - @1647 Deborah - @1648 Zaccheus - @1650 Jane - @1651 Abigail - @1651 Deliverance - @1652 Thomas - @1653 John - 20 July 1655 Nathaniel - @1657 Samuel's will was dated 29 Oct 1684. He died on 7 Nov 1684 in Bridgewater, Plymouth county, Plymouth Colony. His place of burial is not known. | Packard, Samuel (I16677)

| 79877 | Samuel Chester Barrows of Middletown, CT was a carpenter and builder by trade. One day, while engaged in clearing stumps from a vacant lot on the north side of Rapells Avenue, he as struck in the head by a piece of stump in which a charge of powder had been placed to blow it into pieces. The piece was about a foot in length and four inches in diameter, and made a gash four inches long, completely crushing in the front part of his skull. He remained unconscious until 3:00 a.m. the next morning when he died, 10 Jan 1888, age 34 years. Samuel Chester Barrows never married. | Barrows, Samuel Chester (I3393)

| 79893 | Samuel Judson Hall is interred at New Bern National Cemetery, New Bern, NC, Section 8, Grave No. 1338. Pension File for Samuel J. Hall showed his widow, Susan, filed on 10 November 1862, Application No. 5894, Certificate No. 3801. _____________ From FindaGrave: He was one of four brothers (Samuel Judson Hall, George Washington Hall, Stephen Carpenter Hall, and John Dillon Hall) who served with the 25th Massachusetts during the Civil War. There are two listings for Samuel Hall with the same plot no. 1338. He was wounded at the Battle of Roanoke Island, NC on Feb 8, 1862 and died of those injuries on Mar 5, 1862. The U.S. Archives confirms the date of death on the second listing you have. The following is a letter and some notes concerning a letter his brother Stephen Carpenter Hall wrote home during the war. Samuel Judson Hall was a soldier with the 25th Massachusetts Infantry. He mustered in on 14 Oct 1861 in Mendon, MA with Company C. He was wounded in battle on 8 Feb 1862 on Roanoke Island, NC and died 5 Mar 1862 on Roanoke Island, NC. This information is in accordance with the Adjutant General's Office Memorandum, Washington, August 2, 1867. The ship that brought the 25th to Roanoke Island was the New York. According to New Bern National Cemetery Records, however, his date of death was 15 Feb 1862. According to the letter that his brother Stephen Carpenter Hall wrote home to his sister-in-law, Rachel Marion (Daniels) Hall, his brother William's wife, it is assumed that the date of 15 Feb 1862 is in error. Stephen states he saw Samuel quite often while he was sick. Seven days (8 Feb 1862 when he was wounded to 15 Feb 1862 when NPS said he died) is not enough time to warrant such a statement. The following is an excerpt from a letter written by Stephen Carpenter Hall dated 26 May 1862 to his sister-in-law (sister, he writes) Marion (Rachel Marion Hall, wife of William Henry Hall, Stephen's and Samuel's oldest brother): "You spoke about Sam. As John took care of him he knew more about him than I do (did), but he had the nerve of being as brave as any of us. They said that when he fell they returned to help him off. He told them to never mind him, but go ahead and give it to them. I saw him quite often while he was sick. He always seemed in very good spirits and I was in hopes he would get well. Poor fellow, he must have suffered a great deal." | Hall, Samuel Judson (I81)

He conducted a teachers' seminary at Plymouth, N.H., 1837-40, preached at Craftsbury and Brownington, Vt., 1840-64, and conducted a teachers' seminary at Craftsbury, Vt., in connection with the academy of the latter town, 1840-66.

| 79898 | Samuel was a Deacon. Deacon Samuel Chapin was born in Paignton, Devonshire, England on October 8, 1598. He left his native England in 1635 to escape religious persecution. He settled for a time in Roxbury, Massachusetts, before moving his family and helping to found a site they called Agawam. Four years later, Agawam was renamed Springfield, and Deacon Chapin became one of the leading men in the government of the town, and held many public offices during his life, including: Selectmen, Auditor and Magistrate, and he was Deacon of the church. During his life, he became a symbol of the new country's religious founders. Over two centuries after his death, he was immortilized by master sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens in bronze with his work called "The Puritan", an 8 foot 7 1/2 inch, 1887 piece that can now be found in Springfield's Merrick Park, to emphasize the piety and perhaps moral rigidity of the country's religious founders. Smaller variants of the work can be found in various museums, including the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Massachusetts, at City Hall Square, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and the Louvre, Paris, France. Samuel is an ancestor of many famous Americans, including President Grover Cleveland, President William Taft, financier John Pierpont Morgan, actor Spencer Tracy and author/poet Harriet Beecher Stowe. A book was written about the life of Deacon Chapin, titled "Life of Deacon Samuel Chapin of Springfield". BURIAL Deacon Samuel Chapin and members of his family were buried in the Old Burying Ground in the cemetery that Deacon Samual was instrumental in establishing in 1645. Many years of flooding swept many of the original pioneers into the Connecticut River. Mother nature reclaimed the early settlers leaving no traces of their graves or their remains. Deacon Samual died in 1675 and 173 years later in late 1848 some of the remains and headstones were relocated to Springfield Cemetery. Only 517 headstones confirmed actual relocations and the Chapins were not among the 517. FAG memorial in Sringfield is a Centotaph for the mass graves transferred that no records exist for. There is no confirmation that the Chapins remains were recovered and transferred to Springfield Cemetery. I believe this is probably a factor in the commission of the statue in 1881 by descendant Chester W. Chapin. Arrived Springfield 1642, resided there 33 years until his death 1675. Considered as one of the first settlers of Springfield and probably has the greatest number of descendants living within the limits of the old County of Hampshire than any other one of the first settlers. It is not known exactly when he immigrated to America, but it was after 1624. He immigrated to America to escape religious persecution. Deacon Samuel Chapin was one of founding fathers of Springfield, Massachusetts. There is a statue representing Deacon Samuel Chapin that is located in Merrick Park called "The Puritan". In 1881, Chester W. Chapin, a railroad tycoon, congressman and Chapin descendant, commissioned master sculptor Augustus St. Gaudens to produce a work memorializing his ancestor. The sculpture, most commonly known as The Puritan, is currently sited in Springfield's Merrick Park. Created to emphasize the piety, and perhaps moral rigidity, of the country's religious founders— evident in the sculpted Chapin's proud pose, certain stride, flowing cape and hefty Bible, as well as his assertive use of a walking cane. Smaller variants of the same work can be found in several museums. Others represent the history of the statue designed in 1881, by the artist, Augustus St Gaudens; he made the figure as a representation of the Puritan dogma rather than as an individual replica of the man himself. The statue is an imposing figure of a man with his eyes focused downward, striding with his knotty walking stick across the pine-strewn New England wilderness and a Bible tucked under his arm. CHAPIN FAMILY HISTORY Many are reporting the history of the Chapin family as known began in Devon England. Samuel is the Son of John Chapin and Phillipe Easton. He was baptized in St John the Baptist Church in Peignton England on October 8, 1598. This may be recent discovery because the Chapin Genealogy does not include these facts: His wife Cicely Penny or Sicely (as on her will) was the daughter of Henry and Jane (Dabinott) Penny of Paignton, England. She was baptized on February 21, 1601 in Paignton England. Samuel and Cicely were married on February 9, 1623 at the Church of St John the Baptist in Paignton, England .
