• Notes

  From https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Smith-2069 Samuel lived at Northampton, MA 1666-1680, then moved to Hadley, MA to care for his widowed mother. Included in the letter referring to his father was the following reference to his stepfather, John Russell: "He was sometimes a little short of ye Charity which thinketh no Evil, at te least I was wont to think so when his Hand was too heavy on my Shoulder & I remembered ye sweetnesse & ye Charity of my firste Father, but on ye whole said he was a Goode Man & did well by my Mother & her children & no doubt we did often try his wit & temper."
