Born: (unknown)
Died: (unknown) Middletown, Middlesex Co, Connecticut USA
Marriages:
1. 1662-00-00 Catherine Butler
Children of Samuel Roberts and Catherine Butler:
Notes:
He is supposed to be s/o Samuel William Roberts and Sarah Hinman, but that can't be right.
"History and Genealogy of the Families of Old Fairfield, Vol. I" shows that the 1690/1 will of William Roberts who married Sarah Hinman names his children Zechariah age 10, Sarah age 6, Hannah age 4, and Amos age 1. There's no evidence Sarah's husband was Samuel.
Also note the children's ages imply William was born no later than 1663, and probably in the 1650s. There's no way he could have a son who had a son in 1663.
--
Many trees say his middle name was William, and that he was born in 1638 in New Haven CT.
The middle name is because of the mistaken connection to William Roberts and Sarah Hinman. The New Haven location is from the same mistake.
The 1638 date is fabricated from son William's birth date of 1663. [It's not a bad guess, but it's definitely just a guess.]
--
Given all the above, there's no reason to believe we know anything at all about his birth place or his father's name.
