• Notes

  From http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=23123353 Samuel was born in East Haven, the son of John Potter 3rd and Elizabeth Holt. His great grandfather, also John, signed the New Haven Plantation Covenant. He married Dorotha Moulthrop on 1 June 1738 in Branford, formed from East Haven, and two sons, Samuel and Jacob, were born there. Samuel removed to Southington CT with his brother John. Samuel's three daughters were baptised there between 1746 and 1749. By 1750, Samuel, Dorotha, and their five children were in Northbury [now Plymouth], when Samuel first appears on the tax register. In 1756, Samuel and his three daughters - Eunice, Lucy, and Mary - all died from Camp Distemper.
