Samuel Hills was born to parents Joseph Hills Jr. (1629-1674) and Hannah (Smith) Hills (1633-1674) who were married Nov. 1653 in Malden, Massachusetts. Samuel was born 16 December 1667 also in Malden.[1]

In 1694, Dorchester, Massachusetts Samuel married Sarah Unknown.[2]

It has been conjectured that he married widow Sarah Farrar but at this time research reveals her first name only. The known children of Samuel and Sarah Hills were recorded in the Malden Record of births, page 41:

Hannah Hills, b. 10 Oct 1697-1698
Jabez Hills, b. 4 Jun 1699-1742
Ebenezer Hills, b. 15 Feb 1700/1-1732
Samuel Hills, Jr., b. 16 Jul either 1692 or 1702; d.1738.
Samuel Hills died at the age of 34 on 7 January 1704 in Dorchester, Massachusetts.[3] At this time the nature of his early death has not been found and neither has the probable remarriage of widow Sarah Hills.
