Samuel Peck, the eldest son of Jeremiah was born at Guilford, CT in 1659. He is listed as a freeman in Greenwich, CT in 1672. He was rather young,m being only 13, but this can probably be explained by the fact that churchmen in good standing were declared freemen, and he was the son of the minister of the church. He married in Greenwich and remained there when Jeremiah moved on to Waterbury in 1689. According to the Compendium of American Genealogy, Samuel served as a Justice of the Peace in Greenwich for 50 years.
