General Notes: Husband - Capt. Samuel Locke
Buried in McClary Cemetery, Epsom, NH, died at age 55. Another instance of not being recognised when he returned from several years in the Revolutionary War. He ran a tavern in Dover, and was guardian to his Cousin Abraham's children in 1805. His wife had dower rights to his property in Epsom, NH.
Many sources give name as William Samuel Lock, Locke genealogy gives that as his true name, but lists him as Capt. Samuel Locke.
From the Book of the Lockes by John Goodwin Locke, page 335 - "Samuel m. Mary Evans, resided at Epsom, kept a tavern. His will was proved May 15, 1816.
The History and Genalogy of Capt. John Locke, page 88. says he kept a tavern in Dover, and his wife had dower rights in his property in Epsom. Epsom town records records license for a tavern in Epsom.
