Person:Robert Pease (6)

Following the death of his father in 1644, the 14 year old Robert lived with his mother for a year, and at the age of 15 was apprenticed to Thomas Root of Salem for a term of five years. When his term expired in 1650 he remained in Salem, records of 1652 and 1655 show he was an inhabitant of that town. In 1656 he appears in Edgertown, MA where his uncle had taken up residence in 1644. He evidently returned to Salem before 1660, where he appears in 1667 with the birth of the first of his children. He was with the Salem Company during King Philips War of 1675-6. Both he and his wife suffered imprisonment in 1692 when they were suspected of Witchcraft. His wife was living in 1704 and he was living in 1713 when he was dismissed from tahe church in Salem to aid in forming the first church at what is now Peabody,MA. No further record has been found of them.
