Captain Deacon Samuel DUNHAM was born in 1719 in Edgartown, Dukes (Martha's Vineyard), MA.⁽²⁹⁵⁹⁾⁽²⁹⁶⁰⁾⁽²⁹⁶¹⁾⁽²⁹⁶²⁾ In the original vital record entry (381) which recorded "Mr. Samuel Dunham died 9th Dec 1779 in his 62 year of his age" the 62 overwrote a different number, perhaps 61. This would make him born about 1718. A 61 would correspond to a birth year of 1719, which agrees with Banks (671). He moved about 1740 to Lebanon Crank (now Columbia), Tolland, CT.⁽²⁹⁶³⁾⁽²⁹⁶⁴⁾ It would seem that several DUNHAM cousins of Samuel also moved to Lebanon.

Ester DUNHAM, Daniel DUNHAM, Anna WOODWARD (wife of Israel WOODWARD) heirs to the estate of Samuel Durham agreed to a division of property as follows: GET He was buried in Old Cemetery, Columbia, Tolland, CT.⁽²⁹⁷⁰⁾ Prior to becoming it own town in 1804, Columbia was part of Lebanon and known as the "Crank Society." Reference 384 provides the following epitaph: "A man of real worth in private and public character, his usefulness in society was such that he might fitly be called a blessing in his day. He professed hearty friendship to the cause of Christ, which both his life and his death witnessed to be genuine. In the lively hope of a blessed immortality, he departed this life Dec. 9, 1779 in the 62nd year of his age." The Cemetery is located

She married to Richard FRISBIE on 30 Nov 1618 in London, England.⁽¹³⁵⁾⁽³⁰³¹⁾ There is a fair amount of evidence that the parents of Edward FRISBYE were Richard FRISBIE and Margaret EMERSON. Richard and his wife immigrated to the Virginia Colony in 1619 or 1620 and returned to London in 1625. Genealogists believe they probably returned to America during the "Great Puritan Migration" of 1635 aboard the ship Abigail which left London for Boston in that year carrying many settlers bound for Connecticut. There is no further mention of Richard and Margaret in any New England records but there is good reason to believe that they died either during the voyage or soon after arriving in America. It took ten weeks for the Abigail to reach America and many people aboard died of smallpox (in the previous year, the Elizabeth Dorcas lost 60 passengers to disease). Many immigrants arrived sick, without adequate protection against the cold, and died during their first New England winter. Some lived in tents and died of scurvy. Between 1628 and 1640, 20,000 immigrants arrived in America, of which 5000 arrived in 1635 alone. No systematic records were taken of those that lived or died (189, 251). Children were: Mary FRISBIE, Goodman Edward FRISBYE, Ann FRISBIE, Richard FRISBIE, Zachary FRISBIE, Henry FRISBIE, Peter FRISBIE, George FRISBIE, Jane FRISBIE.

According to George Sedgley, various genealogists have suggested that he married Mary EMERSON, Mary WILSON, Mary SYMONDS, or second Mary COLLINS. Sedgley argues for COLLINS (183). Genealogist William BRAY makes a better case for Mary EMERSON (230). When they were married, The couple received a gift of 100 £ from Mary's wealthy parents (230). Kristen is descended from two son, Thomas and John BRAY. Children were: Thomas BRAY, John BRAY, Daniel BRAY, Nathaniel BRAY, Moses BRAY, Aaron BRAY Yeoman, Mary BRAY, Sarah BRAY, Abigail BRAY.
