| Notes |
- He acquired a large amount of land on the banks of the Quinnebaug River near what is now Quinnebaug CT.
The Nipmuck indians were still present in the area and Samuel gained influence over them to the point that he was called "Guvernor".
He built the first bridge over the river and several over small streams. He named the property Myanexit Farm and sold produce as far away as Boston
