General Notes: Husband - Samuel Langley
1800 Census shows 3 males under 10, one over ten, and one 26-44, this matches the burials in the cemetery for sons A-D below. Also included were 2 females under ten and his spouse.
The 1800 census also shows the household of James Langley over 44; and households of James, Samuel and Benjamin, all 26 to 44, which may indicate James as the father of the other three, all which have young children in the census.
1810 Census for Chichester shows Samuel still with 4 sons and 2 daughters.
The papers on Samuel Langley list his wife as Hannah....his probate is dated Feb 23, 1836. Interestingly there is a Joseph French as a witness to this document. which may be just coincidental. Later I see Joseph French listed as an appraiser.

Died age 64-7-20. Buried Short Falls Cemetery, Epsom, NH
The house on the west side of the Suncook Valley Highway, beautifully set on a knoll, has for many years been known as "Singing Hills." The house is on a part of the original lot #128 in the town of Epsom, in the fourth range and is the last lot drawn in 1732 by the orginal proprietors. It was drawn by Nathaniel Morrill. Many of the original proprietors did not settle in town, and such is probably the case here, as the lot could not be traced until 1787 when it was sold as part of a vendue for unpaid taxes. There were no buildings mentioned in deeds at that time. The house and barn were built during the ownership of John D. Burnham sometime between 1812 and 1823. John Burnham sold the property in 1823 and left Epsom.
