********************************
From FAG Member #48148950:

1. NEHGR vol 102, pg 48: Shows Samuel is the one that "died in Eastham on 20 Mar 1696, (Savage says 22 Mar 1697, ae. 55 years)". Also shows he was "bapt. in Hingham 11 Jul 1641" which fits well with a death age of 55. Making him born in 1641.

2. Mayflower Births and Deaths, Vol. 1 and 2, pg 55, Mary Hopkins, "d. 2 Jul 1700, Eastham"

Suggest his date of death change to 22 March 1697, per the Eastham Vital Records, published in Volume 8, page 18 of the Mayflower Descendant, quoted in the memorial, and found at this link: https://archive.org/details/mayflowerdescendv8mass/page/n59.
