      In the Federal Census of 1900, Samuel appears to be a widower age 59, living at 669 Weeden St., Pawtucket, Providence Co., RI. According to census data, he was born in March 1841 NY; parents born NY/MA. He is a teamster. Also in the household are: dtr Josephine 18 RI, son Samuel 17 RI; mother Amanda Parker 88 MA; also three boarders and one housekeeper who seem to be unrelated to the family (this needs more research to confirm).
