Biography
Bereft of a father at an early age, Robert Pease was bound out by the court, 31 December 1645, "upon motion and consent of both parties, to Thomas Root, to learn the trade of a weaver of woolen and linen." He was sometimes made keeper of the town herd, and he must have been employed as herdsman during his apprenticeship, or prior to it, for in 1704 he testified in court that he had been a "keeper of several lots of creatures, as neat cattle, goats, &c., on the land belonging tot he inhabitants of Salem above 60 years agone." In 1655 he "was employed to keep one hundred cows, being a part of the town drove, and to have help so that he may attend every third Sabbath." During an early period of his manhood, he lived at Martha's Vineyard. As an inducement to keep him there, several of the citizens agreed to furnish him annually with one hundred pounds of fish. The agreement contains the following clause:
"If the said Robert Pease leave the island he will leave the fish resigning up again to the owners. Also the said Robert Pease doth engage to weave cloth of the town for such pay as the town can raise among themselves except wampun."
It is not known how long he remained at Martha's Vineyard. No mention is made of him at Salem after 1655 until 1667 except in the records of the birth of his children. Some of them may have been born at Edgartown, as the record of his first five children was made at one time on the Salem books. He was with a Salem company in the French and Indian war in 1676. The given name of his wife was Sarah. Both suffered imprisonment in 1692 because [they were] suspected of witchcraft. His wife was living in 1704 and he in 1713, at which latter date he was dismissed from the First Church at Salem to aid in forming the First Church at the Middle Precinct, afterwards South Danvers, but now Peabody.

At the age of 4 (1634) he traveled to Salem on the 'Francis' with his father Robert and his uncle John.
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 (Banks), where he appears in 1667 with the birth of the first of his five 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 the church in Salem to aid in forming the first church at what is now Peabody, MA. No further record has been found of them.
