Biography

Elizabeth, daughter of Henry and Ann (Plummer) Samson, was born ca. 1638 [MF, 20:1:1, 20:1:3] or ca. 1642 [GMB III, p.1623] in Duxbury, Massachusetts. She married Robert Sprout ca. 1661, probably in Duxbury, as the eldest child was born in Scituate, Massachusetts on July 15, 1662.

Anderson writes: "There are very few chronological clues to help us in arranging the children of Henry Samson. There were nine children and we know from Bradford that seven of them were born by 1651. The daughter known to be married was Elizabeth, who had a child born in 1662, and Hannah was married just a few years later. As Elizabeth and Hannah are listed first and second among the daughters in their father's will, it may be that he named them in birth order. In the absence of other guideposts, we will make the same assumption about the sons. Thus, the birth order of the children...derives from these assumptions, placing the children at approximately two-year intervals after the marriage of Henry Samson. This is certainly not the only possible arrangement, but it is consistent with the available evidence." [GMB III, p.1623-1624]

Elizabeth and Robert had eight children all born in Scituate, Massachusetts. Sometime between the birth of their last child in August of 1680 and the will of "Robert Sprout of Middleborough", dated November 23, 1711, the family removed to Middleboro, Massachusetts.

There are no records to indicate when Elizabeth died. If Elizabeth is the unnamed wife in Robert's will, dated November 23, 1712 [MF 20:1:3], which is probable, that is the last known date proving she was alive.
