Note:
I am having some trouble sorting out the children of Jane, first married Samuel Andrews, second married Arthur Mackworth. Records state that she and Samuel arrived aboard "The Increase" in 1635 with two daughters, Jane, age 3 and Elizabeth, age 2. Some records also show that their daughter Philippa was b. ca 1631, which is not possible if the ship records are correct. Another record shows a son, James, b. ca 1625 which is also not possible. The Felt Genealogy lists a son, Samuel b. at Casco Bay. This would put his birth between their arrival in 1635 and the death of Samuel Adams in 1637. In her will she mentions "in consideration of a marriage that hath been betwixt my daugher Phillipe and George Felt.." Will also mentions a son, James Andrews. A neighbor testified that on his death bed Arthur Makeworth desired his wife to dispose of his estate equally as could be between "her former husband's children and the children between them."

About 1690, Samuel left Casco Bay and with his brothers settled in Salem where he remained until after1701. He was a tailor and had a small house and shop on the main street of Salem. Sometime before 1703, he became a resident of Rowley, where his mother, who had married Thomas Nelson, was living. In the latter part of 1710 he lived in Byfield Parish. He died in Rowley and his family removed to Somers,CT whither his sister, the wife of Josiah Wood, had already gone, and settled in the eastern part of the town, now Somers.

• Note: 1720, Somers, Tolland, CT

Notes:

Note:
From The Felt Genealogy "Samuel Felt settled in Somers not far from 1720. He emigrated thither from Salem when such a journey must have been made on foot or horseack through a wilderness in which lurked dangers from savage beasts and still more savage men. We find that a number of Salem families settled early in Somers, among them that of Josiah Wood, who had married an aunt of Samuel Felt, and this was undoubtedly the inducement that drew him thither, - an enterprise that was soon followed by the remaining members of his family. It is related of Samuel that his first appearance in Somers was upon a sorrel mare, clad in a suit of yellow-brown homespun. As he stopped before the tavern kept by Serah Kibbee, he attracted the attention of a young girl who stood in the doorway, who, under the excitement of seeing a good-looking young stranger with fair locks, exclaimed to her mother, "Yellow man, yellow mare, yellow coat, yellow hair." She afterwards became his wife and the mother of his children. Samuel Felt served in the French and Indian War and bore the title of captain to his dying day. He became a considerable land-owner in Somers, having a valuable farm stretching along the highway, now the "street" of Somers. His house was on the corner of the road leading north past the old meeting-house, and, after his son Samuel married, he shared it with him. He was a "joyner" as well as a farmer, and a man prominent and useful in the community. Samuel Felt and his wife united with the church in Somers, May 21, 1727, upon the occasion of the first sacrament of this new church, and to the end of the ninety years of his life he bore the reputation of a righteous and God-fearing man. He died in Somers, March 23, 1788."
