Samuel wrote his will in 1748 naming his wife and son Thomas as executors. Thomas was absent from the probate record and evidently had removed to North Carolina before 1749. Elizabeth’s will was filed in 1761. She left her estate to Drury, Robert, John and Emelia.[2]

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Samuel by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Samuel:
Hello there! I am quite certain my Rebecca Chappell is a daughter or granddaughter of Samuel, as I have a few DNA matches which connect her. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Chappell-1571 I have connected her to Samuel and Elizabeth, pending more research to be done. What little information I have has always been from other researchers, not knowing where they originally had gotten their information.
