Notes for Samuel CAMP
Notes for LT. SAMUEL CAMP, LT: Samuel Camp was the son of Edward and Mary (Canfield ) Camp. He was born in Milford, CT. and lived his entire life there. Samuel was a mason by trade. In1697 he was Sergeant in the Second Train Band in Milford. In October1698 he was officially appointed Lieutenant (of the Band) by the General Court. He used this title often with his name; in fact,he used it on his marriage record three years earlier. It also help to distinguish him from the other Samuel Camp who was a son of Nicholas Camp. This Samuel was chosen a Deacon of the church about 1709 and used that title there after. He was one of the proprietors of New Milford but did not move there. He married(1) Hannah Betts, Daughter of Thomas Betts of Norwalk on 13 Nov.1672. She was born 12 Nov. 1652 at Guilford and died January1680. Samuel married (2) Mary Camp, daughter of William Camp on10 Oct 1682. She was born in Milford on 22 Mar. 1663 and died in1691. He then married (3) Rebecca Atkinson. In 1691 he was overseer of the estate of Nathaniel Briscoe, husband of his sister, Mary. In a record pertaining to this, he was referred to as "Samuel Camp Senr, her brother." In a deed dated Nov 1,1715, Samuel Camp of Milford conveyed to his son, Enos, the land which he, Samuel, had bought from his brother, Edward Camp, Jr.Since there are no Edward Camps coming from the Nicholas Camp lineage, Samuel is know to be the son of Edward Camp. Samuel's death is documented by his grandson, the Reverend Samuel Camp:"My honored grandfather died Jan 27, 1736, in the 91st year of his age." Samuel is very clearly documented as the son of Edward Camp in "Camp, Jones and Related Families" by Nell Jones Carter.
