Researcher's Note*

Richard Sears purchased land in Monomoy, now Chatham, in 1707. (By deed dated 3 mar 1707/8, he bought of Samuel Sprague of Marshfield all the lands and rights of the latter at Monomoy. This included the farm, formerly of Joseph Quason, Indian, extending from the head of the Oyster pond east to the bay or salt water, and from the Black pond south to the head of the Mill pond, also one-third interest in the undivided lands. 30 Mar 1708: "the inhabitants gave Richard Sears leave to fence across the highway in two places, said Sears to make and maintain convenient gates on the highways, for those who wish to pass," etc. He was on the grand jury, 1710; Town Treasurer, 1713; Constable, 1714-15; Selectman, 1717. His estate was settled Sep. 19,1723, and Daniel Sears and Hope Sears, adms discharged. "Hope Rich, formerly widow of the deceased was allowed L 70 6 2, being her full part of the movable estate, and right of dower; "Thankful Sears, L 70 6 3; Hannah Sears the other third part of the personal estate; Paul, eldest son, two-thirds of the real estate, his guardian to pay Thankful, L 57 16 3, and to Hannah, L 19 5 5. Samuel, youngest son, one-third of real estate, his guardian to pay Hannah,L 38 10 0. Daniel Sears of Chatham was appointed guardian of Samuel, ae.10; Thankful, ae.17, and Hannah, age. __; and John Rich of Eastham, guardian to Paul, ae.13. The real estate was appraised at L 500, and the personal at L 280 18 11. In the "Sears Genealogy," by Rev. E.H. Sears, Richard Sears is made the junior by two years of his brother Daniel, and born 1684. On the contrary it appears by their gravestones in (West) Chatham old burying-ground, that Daniel was the younger; being born in 1682, and Richard in 1680. On a half sunken gravestone in a south-easterly direction from the Sears monument, may still be read the following inscription: "Here lyes ye Body of Richard Sears, who died May ye 24th 1718 in ye 38th year of his age." It is the oldest stone in the cemetery. Samuel Howes of Yarmouth, in his Will, June 8, 1722, gives to his " daughter. Hope Sears, 40s in addition to what she has already had."
Dennis, Cape Cod, p 242, About 1700, several families had left Nobscusset to settle at Monomoyick, a plantation which in 1712 was incorporated as the town of Chatham. Captain Daniel Sears and his brother Richard included.

Obituary

Aug 27, 1676

OBITUARY: His origins are not known at this time, though there have been several different theories over the years. Many of these have been discredited.

Richard Sears arrived in Plymouth in 1632, then came to Essex County. He was in Marblehead by 1637 and Yarmouth by 1639.

His wife's name, fairly confidently, has been established as Dorothy Jones, who came from Dinder,Co.Somerset.

Children: Paul Sears, Deborah Sears Paddock, and Silas Sears.

(The existence of a son Knyvet is fictitious, though his name lives on in the 19th century cenotaph erected at the Ancient Cemetery at Yarmouth.)

It is not clear where he and his wife are buried, though they likely wre interred in the Ancient Sears Cemetery, which is located about 200 yards from his homestead. A possible location for his burial there is shown in the photo. However, it is possible they are at the Ancient Cemetery at Yarmouth (see the cenotaph for him and his sons Here), or even somewhere on the grounds of their homestead.

The cenotaph mentioned above was erected in 19th century, and is based on an early family history that has since been debunked.
