Another reason we know that he thought he was born around 1620 is that Samuel stated in court records on 27 Jun 1678 when he was Administrator of Estate of Edward Wharton that he was about 58 years old (Essex County, Massachusetts Depositions, 1645-1686 -- Vol 7, p 60).
9 Oct 1681:
"Sam’ll Shattock, Senr., Sam’ll Shattock, Junr"are being handed over Executorship from George Wharton of England for the estate of Edward Wharton, (late of Salem, Essex, MA)
PLEASE NOTE MONMOUTH COUNTY, NEW JERSEY: Mr. Wharton bought land.

29 Oct 1681
". . . Edward Wharton invested in the Monmouth purchases, along with the Tilton’s, the Reape’s, and others, apparently not to settle there, but to aid in the establishment of a place free from religious persecution. Edward Wharton reportedly died March 3, 1677-8 at Salem, and his brother George, being of London, seems to have engaged Samuel Shaddock, Sr., and his son,
to assist with handling the estate in America"
The records are in the Monmouth, NJ records but Jeffrey says none of the surnames appearing as witnesses, or "in front of", etc., appear in Monmouth. But those surnames appear in Salem, so it's unknown if either of the two Samuels ever appeared in New Jersey or did all the paper work from Salem.
This proximity does not mean they knew the Quaker William Shattuck 1628-abt 1714 (the shoemaker who fled to Rhode Island and then New Jersey.) He is sometimes referred to as William Shattuck of Boston because he lived there in the mid-late 1650s. He was NOT born there.
He married a Hannah UNK.
What William is often confused/combined/comangled with the William Shattuck (1622-1672) who settled in Watertown. He married a Susanna UNK.
Hannah and Susanna are not the same person and we don't know the maiden name of either.
Nor the parents or siblings fo EITHER of the two Williams.
-----------------------------------
THIS DOES NOT RELATE TO SAMUEL SHATTUCK THE PERSON WHOSE PAGE THIS IS but I don't want to lose it.
THIS is about William "the shoemaker" of New Jersey:
"The last recorded evidence of William Shattock when he was known to still be living was on October 6th, 1714, when William “Shadock,” Yeoman, late of Shrewsbury, Monmouth County, NJ, now of Burlington County, NJ, sold a tract of 92 acres of land . . ."
