LINE OF DEACON JOHN DUNHAM OF PLYMOUTH

THIRD GENERATION IN AMERICA

17. SAMUEL 3 DUNHAM (Samuel 2 John 1) born in Plymouth about 1653;[1] died in Plymouth before 25 February 1717/18, the date on which inventory of his estate was taken.[2] Samuel married in Plymouth 30 June 1680 MARY HARLOW,[3] daughter of Sergt. William and Mary (Faunce) Harlow.[4] Mary was born 19 May 1659;[5] died 8 January 1743 in her 84th year.[6] Samuel left no written will, so we cannot see how he spelled his surname. The recorded death of Samuel’s widow shows “widdow of ye Late Saml Donham Deceasd...” [7]
