Samuel Hale
M, b. circa 1615, d. 9 November 1693
Samuel Hale came early to New England, probably by 1634 and it is likely that he and his sister Martha were with their brother Thomas when he came to Hartford, CT in 1635 though there is no record of their being at Roxbury, MA with Thomas. If they did not accompany Thomas, it is certain that they soon joined him, for Samuel was in Hartford when the Pequot War broke out in 1637 and volunteered as a soldier. For this service he received a lot in Soldier's Field, Hartford and on 11 May 1671 the General Court "grants Sam Hale of Wethersfield, sixty acres of land, to his service and gave the sixty acres to his son Ebenezer.
He served on juries while residing in Wethersfield 4 Sept. and 9 Nov. 1643. On 4 Dec. 1645 he was fined twenty nobles "for his misdemeanor by excess in drinking," but was again called for jury duty, 1 Oct. 1646. In 1647 he was a selectman of Wethersfield.
