OVERALL: Samuel Hinkcley, children, and dates from 'Barnstable Families'
a reprint of the Amos Otis Papers in the Barnstable Patriot 1888

Will: 08 OCT 1662
Note:
In his will dated 8 Oct 1662, he gives his wife Bridget the use of his
house, a garden and some land; his two cows, Prosper and Thrivewell, and
'all the household stuff she brought with her.' His daughters Susannah,
Mary, Sarah and Elizabeth, are named and he gives to each of them and to
each of their children, one shilling each. As he had large property, the
presumption is that he had given a dower to each of his daughters at the
time of their marriage. He gives legacies to his grandchildren Samuel,
Thomas, Mary, Bathshea, children of his son Thomas, and to his grandsons
Samuel and Jonathan Cobb. His personal estate was apprised at 162 pounds
16 shillings, and he had a large real estate which he gave to his three
sons, Thomas, Samuel, and John.

Note: Came to Massachusetts aboard ship Hercules

Note:
He was a dissenter, though on 14 Mar 1734/1735, in order to escape out of
his native country, he was obliged to swear that he 'conformed to the
order and discipline of the church' of England. In the spring of 1635
Nathania Tilden (who had purchased lands in Scituate), Samuel Hinckley,
John Lewis, and James Austin, of Tenterden, in the County of Kent, in
England, and several other families from that County, making a company of
102, counting men, women, children, and servants, resolved to emigrate to
New England. In the latter par of March they sailed from Sandwich in the
ship Hercules, 200 tons, Captain John Witherly. Samuel Hinckley brought
with him his wife Sarah and four children, and immediately after his
arrival in boston went to Scituate and built a house which Mr Lathrop
calls No. 19. Three of his fellow passengers also built house in that
town in the summer of 1635. The street on which they bult was called
Kent street. He continued to reside in Scituate till July 1640, when he
sold his house, farm, and meadows, and moved to Barnstable. He took
the freeman's oath in 1637 and appeared on records as a juror, a surveyor
of highways, and as one of the granters of the lands of Suckinesset.
As a church member he does not appear to have been intolerant. The fact
tha he was twice indicted for 'entertaining strangers,' indicates that he
belonged to the liberal party.

Samuel, in March 1635, set sail on the ship Hercules with his wife and 4children and others to make a company of 102 bound for America. Hesettled first in Scituate, Massachusetts, with his family and built ahome with Rev. John Lothrop called No. 19. About half of the 102 peoplewho came to America with the Hinckleys first settled at Scituate and werefollowers of Rev. Lothrop. In 1640 the Hinckleys moved to Barnstable,where the family name is prominent to this day.

BIOGRAPHY: HINCKLEY, SAMUEL-His English origins are shown by ElizabethFrench,
"Genealogical Research in England-Hinckley," NEHGR 65:287, 314, 68:186).
He was of Tenterden, Kent, and came to New England in the Hercules in
March 1634/35, accompanied by his wife Sarah and four unnamed children.
He lived in Scituate, but apparently did not become a member of Lothrop's
church, for only his wife is shown as having joined, being recorded as
"Goody Hinckley" on 30 August 1635. They had a daughter Elizabeth
baptized at Scituate 6 September 1635 (NEHGR 9:281-82). Samuel became a
freeman 2 January 1637/38, and on the same date he was a trial juror (PCR
1:74). On 4 December 1638 he was among several men of Scituate who were
presented for receiving strangers into their houses without license from
the government (PCR 1: 106). On 4 June 1639 he was a grandjuror (PCR
1:126). Since his son Samuel was baptized at Barnstable on 24 July 1642
(NEHGR 9:282), it would appear that he accompanied Lothrop in the move
there. On 5 June 1644 he was a highway surveyor for Barnstable (PCR
2:72), a position he held many times, He dated his will 8 October 1662,
proved 4 March 1662/63, and he named his wife Bridget (second wife,
Bridget Bodfish); sons Thomas, Samuel, and John; daughters Susanna,
Sarah, Mary, and Elizabeth; his son Thomas's children Samuel, Mary,
Thomas, Bathsheba, and others unnamed; and Samuel and Jonathan Cobb, sons
of his daughter Cobb; and he named son
