Samuel Swasey was born in 1653 and was still unmarried, and living at home with his father, when his father died in 1692. Although we do not have a marriage license, it appears that he was married in 1697 to Hannah Beardsley Hulse at the age of 44. At Southold, L.I. New York. See ( New England Marriages Prior to 1700, page 723 )
