G2G: Is the father of Matthew Woodruff (b. abt 1612) Samuel Woodruff (or is it Matthew)?

Question

Does anyone have any info that supports or disproves this?

The footnote sourcing in Buckingham points to "Genealogical History of Connecticut" (Cutter) and "History of Farmington, Conn." (Tindell)

In "Buckingham Colonial Ancestors" on pg. 68, it states that our Matthew Woodruff was a son of Samuel Woodruff. Source link -- https://www.google.com/books/edition/Buckingham_Colonial_Ancestors/CAc7AAAAMAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&printsec=frontcover

Just found another potential line of thinking that would connect Matthew with a father named Matthew as well:

Looks more like Matthew was the father of Matthew vs the father being Samuel but still a lot more research to be done to confirm.

The Cutter books are notoriously unreliable, but I looked and the sketch doesn't mention parents. p. 560 https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=wu.89067608521&view=1up&seq=842

The other source listed - History of Farmington by Tindell doesn't seem to exist.
