Research notes

I think that this is the correct Samuel Thayer to marry Sarah Farnum. Their marriage record, however, refers to him as Samuel Thayer, 3rd. More research needed. Cole-12288 19:43, 24 November 2018 (UTC)

Samuel and Sarah had the following children:

  1. Amos
  2. Lovisey
  3. Asa
  4. Jabez
  5. Lois

  7. Eunice
  8. Nahum
