Try this with UNION ALL (you know there won't be any duplicates) and
possibly with some limits too:
SELECT * FROM samples_1999 WHERE ts BETWEEN '1999-01-01 00:00:00+00' AND
'1999-12-31 11:59:59+00'
UNION ALL ...

Try restricting the timestamp too
WHERE
ts BETWEEN (current_date -7) AND current_timestamp
Hopefully that will give the planner enough smarts to know it can skip
most of the sample_200x tables.
