Another family idea is he was a Captain of a ship and was drowned at sea in the late 1870s, not long after Maria was born.
I wonder if this is really the way it happen, as an ex-merchant marine, I know how easy it would be to toss someone overboard for any number of reasons by one or more crew members.
Family members down through the years prefer the story that Samuel was a ship's Captain and simply died at sea.
