Notes:

Excerpt from "Connecticut, 1600s-1800s Local Families and Histories: New England Families, Vol. IV Genealogies and Memorials":

The Delano family is of ancient origin and of royal descent. They were of pure Orman and Flemish blood,in France, and did not intermingle with the French. The family has several royal lines, as is the case with those of royal blood, because of intermarriages, and among their ancestors are: Ruolf, first Duke of the Normans, a Viking, 860: Richard the Fearless; Richard the Good; Robert the Devil; William the Conqueror, King of England and Duke of Normandy; Henry II., King of England; Henry VI, marries Agnes, a descendant of Alfred the Great; Emperor Charlemagne, and many others.

The Delano family went to Leyden to escape persecution in France where the Catholic party was in power and te Inquistion active; they were French Protestants or Huguenots. Philip grew up under the teachings of the separatists of the Established Church of England, and it is thought that he started with the first company of Pilgrims for this country, in the "Speedwell", which had to put into Dartmouth because of a leak. He remained in England until the "Fortune" sailed, the next summer, in 1621, then aged nineteen years, and in 1624 he had a grant of land at Plymouth. This grant he gave up, as he settled in Duxbury, Massachusetts.

He was often surveyor and frequently a member of the grand jury. He was a volunteer in the Pequot War, June 7, 1637.

Excerpt from "Philip Delano of the Fortune 1621": Philip Delano served on the Plymouth Grand and Petit juries, on the committee to view "the hay grounds", as a surveyor, and volunteered to serve n the Pequot War. In 1633, he was in the first list of Plymouth Colony Freemen.
There is no probate record for Philip Delano. An inventory taken and exhibited to the Court on 4 March 1681/2 on the "oath of his son Samuel" mentions only the personal estate with no real estate involved.

Philip married Hester DEWSBURY on 19 Dec 1634 in Plymouth, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA. Hester died before 1653. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Other Events and Attributes:

• Fact: Brother to Henry Samson

Notes:

Name:
Samuel Sampson, deceased grandson of Lieut. Samuel Nash, was a son of Abraham Sampson of Duxbury, from which it appears that Samuel Sampson's mother was one of the daughters of Lieut. Nash. Abraham Sampson had sons George, Abraham and Isaac who are not mentioned as Lieut. Nash's grandsons. From these facts it is evident that Abraham Sampson had two wives, one of whom was the daughter of Lieut. Nash and the mother of Samuel Sampson, oldest son of Abraham Sampson. The writer has no information concerning Abraham Sampson's second wife.

Abraham Sampson, supposed to have been a brother of Henry; came from England some time after Henry, it is not known in what year, but probably in 1629 or 1630; and settled at Duxbury. He was on the list of persons in Duxbury "able to bear arms," in 1643. that list included all able-bodied males between the ages of sixteen and sixty. he was one of the fifty-four original grantees of Bridgewater, 645, all of whom then resided in Duxbury. He was surveyor of highways, 1648; constable, 1653; and was admitted freeman of Plymouth Colony in 1654. He was living in 1686; after which there is no record of him.

His wife, whose baptismal name does not appear, was a daughter of Samuel Nash, the Lieutenant of the Duxbury company. Lieut. Nash was frequently engaged in the military expeditions of the Colony, and was an officer in nearly all of them. He was respected by the people; was frequently honored with civil trusts; and was sheriff or chief marshal of the colony, from 1652, through a period of more than twenty years.

Winsor says that Abraham Sampson had a second wife, but does not give her name.

There is no will of Abraham Sampson, or settlement of his estate, on record. As the records of Duxbury, prior to 1666, were destroyed by fire, we are unable yo make out a full list of his children. We are able, however, to give the names of four sons, who came to maturity, and had families. If there were daughters, and if there were other sons, their memory has perished.
