Samuel Haugh

Samuel Haugh was an early American silversmith, active in Boston. Only three of his works are known to survive: two cups and a spoon.
Haugh was born in Boston to Rev. Samuel Haugh and Ann Raynsford. Upon his father's untimely death in June 1679, the diarist Samuel Sewall became his guardian. In 1690, he became apprentice to silversmith Thomas Savage, as recorded in an entry in Sewall's diary:
After his apprenticeship, he married Margaret Johnson on September 30, 1697, in Boston, and there worked from 1697– 1717 as a silversmith. In 1713 he served as second sargeant in the Artillery Company. An entry in the Sewall Papers records his burial:
