• Notes

  He was a passenger on the "Francis". Robert Pease, the son of Robert and Margaret Pease of Great Baddow, near Ipswich, County Essex, and brother of Elizabeth and John, was the first member of this family to come to America. He arrived here on the ship "Francis" from the port of Ipswich, England in late April 1634 and landed at Boston. He was accompanied by his brother John and his eldest son Robert. Records show that neither Robert or John had wives with them. Both Robert and John are listed as being twenty seven years old but it is presumed that Robert was the elder. The son Robert was listed as being age three years. They settled in Salem, Massachusetts where Robert was a weaver. Robert's wife Marie and other members of the family probably came in a later ship. It is fairly clear that his mother, Margaret, also came with his family, being referred to in church records as the widow Pease and also as having died in 1644. Robert and John Pease both received land grants in Salem in January 1637. Robert joined the First Church at Salem on October 1, 1643.
