The individuals included are descendants of Abraham Sampson, their spouses and parents of those spouses. Each descendant is accompanied by an individual number, the line back to Abraham, and when available the dates and places of birth, marriage, death, occupation, and Federal Census information. The Name Index includes dates of birth and death when known. The report has been assembled from various published sources, the most recent being the 1930 Federal Census, Social Security Death Index into 2009, some state death indexes as recent as 2003, and submissions by both PHSK members and non-members, however some sources are not available.
The database includes Abraham’s first cousin Pilgrim Henry Samson when lines merge. Those interested in proving descent from Pilgrim Henry Samson should refer to the Mayflower Society’s “Mayflower Families Through Five Generations – Family of Henry Samson” Volume 20 Parts 1, 2 and 3. Some of Henry’s 6th and later generations that are shared with Abraham appear in those publications.
