Biography

Samuel, the son of Ephraim Buck and Sarah Brooks, was born in 1682.^[1]

Notes

This Samuel may be confused with another Samuel Buck who lived in Woburn around the same time. One was born in Cambridge and the other was born in Woburn in the years indicated in their profiles. One married Abigail Wyman^[2] and the other married Hannah. Which Samuel married which woman and fathered her children is not known and different sources indicate different lineages. For now, the profiles indicate what is reflected in Richards's Genealogy of the Buck Family, but unless more evidence is found each Samuel could have just as easily been married to the other woman in reality. Another source has him unmarried.^[3]
