== Background and family ==
Tudor was born in East Windsor, in the Colony of Connecticut, in 1769, son of Samuel Tudor, III, and Naomi Diggens.〔 His father was called to the Lexington alarm as a lieutenant in the Connecticut militia, while his uncle, Dr. Elihu Tudor, was a loyalist and intimate friend of loyalist Governor William Franklin of New Jersey. Elihu was a preeminent surgeon who attended to British General James Wolfe at the Battle of Quebec. Tudor’s grandfather, Samuel, Jr, was a Yale-educated Presbyterian minister. The family descended from Owen Tudor,〔The History and Genealogies of Ancient Windsor, Connecticut, 1635-1891, Henry R. Stiles, M.D., Case, Lockwood, and Brainard, 1891〕 a founder of Hartford who was in Connecticut by 1645 and who made unsubstantiated claims to be related to the British monarchs.
Samuel IV, who was also commonly known as Samuel Tudor, Jr., married Mary Watson, daughter of John Watson, a wealthy Windsor, CT, merchant, and Ann Bliss. John Watson was a second cousin of Connecticut Governor Jonathan Trumbull, Jr., and of his brother, the celebrated Revolutionary War painter, John Trumbull. With Watson, Tudor had 2 sons, William Watson, who married Mary Dalrymple Bruce, great granddaughter of General Samuel Barwick II, Governor of Barbados; and Henry Samuel Tudor, who married Mary Rowe Bradley, daughter of U.S. Senator Stephen Rowe Bradley, and sister of William Czar Bradley, U.S. Representative, both of Vermont.
