Note*Data from Helen Romano's notes: 'Roland Dyer was born and raised on the family farm. As a young man he worked in the logging camps and enlisted in the Spanish American war with the 14th Minn. Volunteers. He was discharged at the end of the war and worked for the Telephone Company.After his marriage he homesteaded land in Northwestern South Dakota, and built a sod shack. Two years of drought ended his farming and he worked for a time in Lemon, SD, then returned to Minn. and worked for the Tri-State Telephone Company. In 1912 his safety belt broke and he fell from the top of a telephone pole and was badly injured. The accident happened at Inver Grove and he was transported in a horse drawn ambulance to Ancker Hospital in St. Paul. He fell seventeen days before the compensation law was passed. Eleven years later the Telephone Company gave him $700 for his injuries but did not give him lifetime work as verbally promised. He worked as a school custodian until he retired in1934 and moved to Deer River and lived in a log cabin.' [JWP]

Note*No Children. [WAD] His brother William was indicted for the murder of his wife Hannah, and was executed on that charge. [WFT Vol.3, #5891] 16 June 1719 - Whereas Samuel Dyer of Newport, yeoman, has petitioned Assembly to release the forfeiture of the estate of his brother William Dyre (who was lately executed in the town of Newport, which was forfeited to this colony) for the subsistence of his children; ordered that after charges of imprisonment, trial and execution of William Dyre are satisfied, real and personal shall be discharged. Taken from the Genealogical Dictionary of Rhode Island. Based on the above, it is safe to assume that William Dyer's children,were raised by Samuel and his wife Desire Slocum.

To Captain Samuel Dyer, 83 pounds, a good cow kept for him for five years, and ten bushels of indian meal a year for him five years if he needs it. To Captain Samuel Dyer's daughter Mary Dyer, a feather bed at marriage, and to his daughter Desire, the same. To four sons of my brother Charles Dyer, deceased, viz. Charles,Samuel, John and William, 17 pounds each, and to their sister Mary Barton, twenty Spanish milled dollars. To Desire Bull, widow of Nathan Bull, negro Peggy, her child Sarah, and a good cow.

Note*Baptized May 26,1695, 2d Church, Boston, Mass. Resided North Kingstown, RI. Note: Children, John, Edward, Abigail, Mary, and Jerusha have not beendocumented. [William Allan Dyer's Manuscript] 'Samuel Dyer(4) was the eldest son of Samuel Dyer(3) by his second wife,Mary -----. He was born in Boston, Mass on May 20, 1695 and was baptizedin the 2nd Old North Church there on May 25 1695. This was the Church hisfather and family attended as well as his uncles Henry and Barrett Dyre. The family removed about 1699/1700 to Bristol R.I. where other childrenwere born and apparently he eventually removed to North Kingstown, R.I.where the births of his seven children were recorded. Unfortunately, theTown Records were badly scorched in a fire which occurred in the TownHall, and parts of them are indecipherable - in this case only the datesof birth remaining, the names being obliterated. The writer (WilliamAllan Dyer) in company with Col. H. Anthony Dyer of Providence examinedthese records in hope of finding some trace of the names but this was invain. Our visit was made on May 22, 1940. Nevertheless by process of checking and eliminating we believe we can saywith a reasonable assurance that his children are those indicatedbelow..... these names are those of members of the family secured frommarriage records of Newport.' They had another child, name unknown, born 20 Oct. 1735, died 8 Nov 1735(RI Vital Records).

Note*Indexed by Sharon Howland. Calais Advertiser. p2. Calais Free Library,Union Street, Calais,Maine 04619, Date of entry: 19 Sep 1883. OBITUARY:Samuel Dyer, who departed this life Friday Sept 18, was born in Calais,June 29, 1790. In early life he was engaged in the lumbering business for some time. He enlisted and served his country as a soldier during the war of 1812. Mr. Dyer was twice married. In 1818, at the age of 28, he married Margaret Duke, who died in 1842. By her he had ten children, all of whom lived to grow up, married and scattered - three to the Pacific coast, one to Wisconsin - two remaining in Calais, four have passed away. Mr. Dyer was a democrat; always very set in his way, but gentle and considerate of the feelings and opinions of others. Strictly temperate, regular in his habits - conscientious in business. His life was a series of accidents. At the age of 33 when in the woods for the late Jones Dyer he met with his first cut on his knee which laid him by for a year, and left him with a stiff knee. In 1862 when coming from church his horse running away - threw him and his wife out, by which each had a limb broken. Mr. Dyer suffered while he lived with rheumatism in his stiff knee and broken leg - but through all was active, industrious and patient to the last.
