Erica Howton, it looks like you changed this. Do you have a source for your change?

I see two different Samuel Lambs with births recorded at Roxbury:

Samuel Lamb (Joshua & Mary Alcock)

Samuel Lamb, of Spencer (Abiel & Elizabeth Clark)

According to http://catnip13.tripod.com/Lamb.html (source attached to Samuel, of Abiel) he married 1) Hester Joslin 2) Mary.

Do you know otherwise ?

The family of Joshua and Mary Alcock is shown here, and also the family of Abiel & Elizabeth Clark:

He has the Samuel (of Joshua) dead in 1700, without issue.

Thanks Erica. I wasn't aware there were 2 Samuels born in the same year to these 2 brothers. I took a look this morning and have only found books and trees written about them, not primary sources. Let's leave them as is and I'll continue doing some research.
