Fact: http://familysearch.org/v1/LifeSketch Maine Families in 1790 Vol. 10: Samuel Watts was a Revolutionary War soldier, with service at Machias from 16 July 1777 to 7 October 1777 as a private and lieutenant in Joel Whitney's company in Col. Benjamin Foster's Lin Co regiment.
Though Samuel was from Boston, his wife Mary was from Maine and so he is mentioned in the Maine history.
