Biography

Samuel Pettingell was born in Salem, Massachusetts and baptized on the ninth day of the last month of the Old Style calendar year, which is in February, in the year 1644-5. (see notes) His parents are Richard Pettingell and Joanna (Ingersoll) Pettingell. [1]

Samuel took the oath of allegiance with other townsmen in 1678 "aged 33." On February 13, 1673-4, Samuel married Sarah Poore, [2] the daughter of Daniel Poore and Mary (Farnham) Poore, born December 28, 1652, in Andover, Massachuetts. [3]

Samuel and Sarah were the parents of seven children. Samuel died in 1711. In his will, dated July 9, 1709, proved January 2, 1711, he bequeathed his property to his wife Sarah and children, Samuel, Richard, Daniel, John, Thomas, Mary, Sarah, Joanna, and Benjamin. [4] Sarah died in Newbury, Massachusetts on July 30, 1735, at the age of 82.

Researcher's Notes

Old Style Calendar: Before 1752 the year began on Lady Day, March 25th,. Dates between January 1st and March 24th were at the end of the year. Old Style (O.S.) and New Style (N.S.) are used to indicate whether the year has been adjusted. Often both dates are used.

John Mason Pettingell identifies Samuel's wife as daughter of John Poore, an early resident of Newbury, Massachusetts, born June 5, 1655. This is, however, incorrect. THAT Sarah Poore married John Sawyer on February 18, 1675.
