    Col. Samuel Knowles, s/o Samuel Knowles and Mercy Freeman, b. Eastham 15 Jan 1682, d. Boston 30 Jan 1750/1, m. Eastham 7 Nov 1709 Bethia Brown. From Boston Weekly News-Letter of 7 Feb 1750/51: "On Wednesday the 30th of January died at his Lodging in this Town, Samuel Knowles, Esq; One of the Members of the Honourable House of Representatives, from the Town of Eastham; in the County of Barnstable; and on Friday was decently interr'd [in Old Granary Burial Ground on Tremont Street in Boston], attended by the Honourable House of Representatives, and others. A Gentleman who was greatly belov'd and respected, and will be much lamented: As one of His Majesty's Justices, Col. Knowles was strictly Impartial in the Administration of Justice; was always for making up of differences between Man and Man as soon as possible, and with as little Charge as might be; and was remarkable both for preventing and healing of any long and uncomfortable Debates among his Neighbours and others; and his Judgment greatly sett by; and that which crown'd all, A Man of strict Peity and Integrity."
