Samuel Larrabee [#11], s/o Stephen Larrabee [#2] and Isabella ---, b. "probably" Yarmouth, ME, abt. 1690 [p. 20:48: bet 1688 and 1694], d Lynn bef 30 Apr 1659, m. (1) Lynn 14 Jan 1717 Sarah Breed, m. (2) Mary Simonds.
[Note: the death is incorrect. As is made clear in the text, this is based on a probate in Lynn naming widow Mary, administrator Joshua Cheever. Investigation of the full probate files (file 16411, 16418) shows this is the Samuel Larrabee who m. 1741 Mary Brown, d. 1755 leaving 6 minor children. This is a different man, the son of Isaac as covered on p. 19:229, 20:113. Note that the text for the son of Isaac on 20:113 mentions the same probate documents (336:256, 336:363-4) already mentioned on p. 20:48 as belonging to the Samuel of this page, as well as giving the son of Isaac two daughters named Sarah, one bp. 1724 (the son of Isaac was born about 1721!!), one born abt 1743, clearly showing the confusion of this source. The source below indicates evidence that shows the Samuel of this page had left Lynn by 1743 so could not be the owner of this probate.

Samuel Larrabee and wife Sarah were admitted to full communion of the church in Lunenburg, Mass., by letter from the Second Churcn in Lynn, Mass., April 3, 1743, and removed to Rindge in 1762. His wife d. previous to this date, and he had a home with his son Samuel.

[Note: the EG article above attributes all its information on the children of Samuel to this source.]
"Samuel Larrabee, of Lunenburg, married Widow Mary Simonds, of Shirley, Mass. Dec. 19, 1758; probably a second wife, and mother of Ebenezer and Dav'd, as above."
[Note: Ebenezer and David are shown as sons of Samuel Jr. Note that older brother William and Ebenezer are both recorded in Shirley, in 1755 and 1759, so on either side of this marriage. Both name the mother as Anna. Then, David is baptized in Rindge. The History of Rindge, where it is alleged both Samuel and Samuel Jr. lived after 1762, lists Samuel Jr.'s only wife as Anna, suggesting she was alive. The History of Rindge says this family disappeared from town about 1771.
Source:Hayes, Lyman S. History of the Town of Rockingham, Vermont lists Samuel Larrabee and Anne Larrabee as founding members of the church there in 1773, and a death record for Anne Larrabee is found there in 1775, though without any additional information that would be needed to make sure it is the same person.
Even without the Vermont records, which are very speculative, a deed in Middlesex Vol. 57, p. 319 show that Samuel and Anna of Shirley sell land in 1760, showing Anna did not die before Ebenezer's birth, and so the marriage of Samuel of Lunenburg to Mary Simonds may be the father, but is certainly not the son as this source suggests.]
