Notes:

Name:
Of his early history nothing more is known than is contained in the following extract from the History of the Baptists in America, compiled by the Reverend Isaac Backus. "Sampson Mason was a soldier in the Cromwell's army and he came to America upon the turn of the times in England and settled in Rehoboth and his posterity are now as numerous as, perhaps those of any man who came to our country in his day" (Vol. 2, page 435). Backus probably gained his information from grandsons of Sampson Mason who were pastors of the Second Church of Swansea at the tie the history was written, and possibly his wife, who was a great-granddaughter of Sampson Mason, may have related to him some of the family traditions. However this may be, the authenticity of the statement can scarcely be doubted.
