Notes:

Samuel and Elizabeth Packard are the progenitors of most of the 'Packard's in the USA. There have been questions surrounding the accuracy of published information, going back to Packard history first presented in 1840. This biography accepts as fact the probable conclusions presented by Karle S. Packard in Packard's Progress, Vol. 17 [Feb. 1991], pp. 9-12.

Samuel was the third son of George and Mary (Wyther) Packard, baptized 17 Sep 1612 in Stonham Aspal, Suffolk, England.

Samuel married Elizabeth (surname unknown) in England. No record of the marriage has been found.

Samuel arrived at Boston 10 Aug 1638. The ship was the "Diligent". He came with his wife Elizabeth Packard and "a child". The child is probably Mary.

The Packard family first lived in Hingham. About 1654, they moved to Weymouth, where Samuel served as a Selectman for 2 years. About 1664, they moved to Bridgewater, where Samuel spent the rest of his life and served the community in many posts.

Samuel and Elizabeth had fourteen children. Packard's Progress makes the case for the birth order of these children and their approximate birth years, based on a study of the baptismal records, marriages, and wills. Only the birth of John was officially recorded. The first 12 children were born in Hingham. John and Nathaniel were born in Weymouth. None were born in Bridgewater.
