Samuel Niles (1674 - 1762) was the son of Captain Nathaniel Niles and Sarah Sands of New Shoreham (Block Island), Rhode Island. After graduation, Niles returned to Block Island as minister for two years and then removed to South Kingston, Rhode Island. While his congregation there may have likely included Native people, especially Narragansett, it is unclear if Niles undertook a special mission to them.
