Samuel Spooner lived in Dartmouth, Massachusetts. He was constable in 1680; and again in 1684; served on grand and petit juries and held other positions of trust. The office of Constable was an important one. He was collector of taxes as well preserver of the peace. More time for a hundred years was taken up in choosing, excusing and fining this officer than in doing all the other town meeting business.

The name Spooner first appears in the record of municipal procedures in 1680, when Samuel Spooner was chosen Constable. After that time the name Spooner appears on almost every record. One of the name was elected to some office, or in some way introduced, at more than two-thirds of the town meetings from 1680 to 1779.

He and his brother John, with others of the Dartmouth proprietors were defendants in suits brought by Zachary Allin and others, Oct. 28, 1684, and by William Wood and others, March, 1686. On trial of the first action, the jury "found for the defendants with the costs of suit," and in the latter action the plaintiffs were non-suited.
