Notes for Sampson Lloyd
Sampson was named after his father’s father. From this and his appearance first in the will of his grandmother,1977 we might guess that he was firstborn. Since the signs are that the parents’ marriage was forced,2379 that would put his birth at 1727 or 1728.
He was apprenticed to Thomas Vallant, toymaker of Birmingham, in 1742.2394 Curiously, his namesake Sampson, son of the more illustrious Charles Lloyd and Sarah Carless, was apprenticed in 1755 to another toymaker of that city, John Green.2268
He was the only one of the three children of Thomas and Mary Lloyd who received a bequest under the 1772 will of Olive née Lloyd Kirton, Thomas’s sister.2393 Since he is not a beneficiary of the 1780 will of his mother, we would presume that he had died by then.
