Spouse1: Catherine Mears m. 3 Nov 1748
Spouse2: Abigail Williams m. 4 Oct 1753

Children of Catherine:
1. Mehitable (May) Dawes
2. Mary May

Children of Abigail:
3. Abigail (May) May
4. Samuel [1] May
5. Catherine (May) Cravath
6. Joseph May
7. John May
8. Martha (May) Frothingham
9. Lucretia (May) Archbald
10. Samuel [2] May
11. Mary (May) Davenport b. 1769 d. 1853 Milton
12. Sarah (May) Holland
13. Louisa (May) Goddard
14. Samuel [3] May

Note I found the 4 children that died young; I am not finding a "Howell May", nor a record that exists. I am questioning the info on Mary May's stone; she would have been b. abt a month and a half after the marriage of Samuel and Catherine. She has a birth vital for 1 Dec 1749 Boston [Roxbury], so her death would have been abt 12 Jan 1750 at 6 weeks and 3 days [1 m, 17d].

I can't pin-point when Samuel May removed to South End, Boston; it does appear it was just after 1762.
