Isaac Samson was one of the earliest settlers in Plympton.
Along with his brother George, the eldest son of Abraham Samson, Isaac
moved into Western Plymouth which was incorporated as the town of Plympton in 1707. Married to Lydia Standish, the daughter of Alexander and Sarah (Alden) Standish, thus the grand-daughter of Myles Standish and John Alden, Isaac Samson is buried here at Plympton beside his sons Josiah and Jonathan. Jonathan and his wife Joanna (Lucas) Samson, buried here also, are the great grand-parents of legendary Plympton resident Deborah Sampson.
