Samuel Guile, was christened 19 Jan 1613 at Ilketshall, St. Margaret, co. Suffolk, England, married on 1 Sep 1647 at Haverhill, MA Judith Davis, daughter of James Davis and Cecily Thayer, who was born about 1626 at England. Samuel died on 21 Feb 1683 at Haverhill, MA. Judith died in May 1667 at Haverhill, MA.
Burleigh #1. "Samuel Guile, brother of John Guild, was for a brief period at Dedham, and appears to have been one of the first settlers of Newbury, but did not remain long, for in 1640 he was one of the twelve who settled Pentucket, now known as Haverhill. He was made a Freeman by the General Court in 1642, and married Sept. 1, 1647, Judith Davis, daughter of James Davis, one of the original settlers, and an emigrant from Marlborough, England. By careful examination of the records we do not find that he was interested to any degree in town or church affairs. In 1650, Samuel Gild made choice of land at Little River. In 1652, Samuel Gild received ten acres in the second division. In 1658, Samuel Guile enters into an agreement for support of a blacksmith, and receives land in the third division. Samuel Gilde senior built a cottage about 1660, and in 1663 received land in the fourth division. He died Feb. 21, 1683. Part of his homestead still remains in the possession of his descendants."
