About Deacon Samuel Scarborough

He was one of the thirty-nine persons who signed to settle in New Roxbury, or Woodstock, Conn. He was one of the committee appointed to make arrangements preliminary to the drawing of house lots in Woodstock in 1886.



In 1686 forty families from Roxbury, Massachusetts made their way to what is now the Northeast corner of Connecticut and settled the town of New Roxbury, Massachusetts (in 1690 the town was renamed Woodstock, but it continued under the jurisdiction of Massachusetts until 1749 when it was passed over to Connecticut). Among those first settlers were Samuel and Bethiah Scarborough. Samuel and Bethiah later returned to Roxbury, but their sons John and Samuel, Jr. remained in Woodstock. http://www.taylorsbb.com/about.htm ; https://connecticutgenealogy.com/windham/proprietors-of-woodstock-c...

(Samuel Jr. later returned to Roxbury also.)
