Sampson Hele (c. 1582 – c. 1655) of Gnaton and of Halwell, Devon, was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons in 1614 and 1624.
Hele was born c. 1582 into the junior line of a minor gentry family which had settled in Devon since at least the twelfth century. He was the son of Walter Hele of Lewston, Devon and the former Elizabeth Strode, daughter of William Strode of Newnham, Devon. He matriculated at Broadgates Hall, Oxford on 6 May 1597, aged 15.[1]
