Generation: 1
- Robert PEASE b. 14 May 1656, Salem, Essex Co., Massachusetts; d. 1744, Enfield, Hartford Co., Connecticut.
Notes:
Robert Pease first settled at Salem in the "Northfields." In 1679 he
shared with his elder brother in the enterprise of leaving the sea
coast to seek out and make ready new homes for himself, his relatives
and neighbors, in the Connecticut Valley in what is now Enfield Ct.
They are said to have lived the first winter in an excavation in the
side of a hill near the site of the first meeting house. Two years
later, in 1681, he and John brought their father and their families to
Enfield. In 1685 Robert and John had extra land given them because
they had been the "first cummers." Robert and Abigail had four sons.
Robert died in 1744 at age 88 years.

Pease tells the following: Mr. Pease purchased a tract of land from
an Indian among the remaining natives of the place (Stockbridge,
Mass.) A part of the price was paid down, the remainder was put in a
note to be paid at stipulated times. The Indian one day came to Mr.
Pease saying he was going off to a distance hunting and expected to be
gone a long time and did not know what might happen. Desiring the
note to be in safe keeping, he wished he would "take him and keep him
until he returned." Mr. Pease told him that was not the way to do
business, possibly he might not be honest and would not give up the
note on his return, and so cheat hin out of his money. "No" said the
Indian. "Mr. Pease be a good man, he be honest, he no cheat poor
Indian." So it proved for Mr. Pease took the note and when after many
months the Indian returned, the note was restored and in due time
cancelled.
