Samuel was probably born in Duxbury, Plymouth Colony. His family was living in Duxbury, but there is no birth record.

Nahum Mitchell wrote that Samuel was called "Sergent". In 1690, Samuel Washburn was named a constable in Bridgwater, so perhaps "Sargent" derived from that service.

Samuel married Deborah Packard about 1676 and probably in Bridgewater, Plymouth county, Plymouth Colony. They had children:
Samuel - 6 April 1678
Noah - 11 July 1682
Israel - 24 February 1683/64
Nehemiah - 20 May 1686
Benjamin - 17 January 1688/89
Hannah - @1690


Samuel died on 24 March 1720, in Bridgewater, Plymouth county, Province of Massachusetts Bay.

Samuel had prepared a will, dated 13 March 1720. The will was probated on 4 April 1720.

Samuel is a Mayflower descendant:
Francis Cooke
Jane Mitchell
Elizabeth Washburn
