Chapter IX : New Hampshire Peases from The Genealogical and Historical Record of the Descendants of John Pease, Sen , The Genealogical and Historical Record of the Descendants of John Pease, Sen A considerable family of Peases trace their ancestry to Nathaniel Pease who died in the town of New Market, Rockingham County, N.H., in 1748. We have been unable to learn from any of his posterity, the given name of his father, his final place of settlement and death, or the early history of the son, except the date of his birth.

Mr. Mark Pease, a grandson of Nathaniel Pease, now seventy-eight years of age, (1868) possessing a clear mind and reventive memory, informs us his great-grandfather Pease came from Martha's Vineyard, and was killed by hostile Indians when at work in his corn-field. His statements are corroborated by other members of the family. Exeter, a shire town of Rockingham County was the home of Nathaniel Pease in his early manhood. Hence, it is natural to look for the home of his father in that vicinity.

From 1690 to 1710 the Indians were very hostile to the inhabitants of th new settlement of Exeter. They were obliged to confine themselves in the garrisons by night, and cultivate their fields by day in continual fear of their savage foe. Many of the inhabitants were murdered by them during this period, all of whose names unfortunately have not been preserved. Is is possible to suppose, then, that Exeter may have been the place where the father of Nathaniel Pease lived and met his death as described by Mr. Mark Pease. This seems more probable from the fact that there lived in Exeter within the above period an individual bearing the name of Samuel Pease. It is found on a list of sixteen jurors who had been summoned in Exeter, January 16, 1694, to attend a coroner's inquest. The following year his name was returned as one of the jurors to attend court in Portsmouth. In 1698 he had fifty acres of land granted him by the town of Exeter. We could not find him mentioned later than his grant of land. his name next appears in the family of Nathaniel Pease. His eldest son bore the name instead of the father's, as was quite common in those days; while the eldest daughter took the name of her maternal grandmother instead of the mother's.

The question occurs, where did this Samuel Pease, Sen., originate? It seems highly probable he came from Martha's Vineyard. John Pease, Sen., of that place mentioned in his will a son Samuel, of whom no farther trace is found at Martha's Vineyard afterwards. The posterity of Nathaniel Pease, Sen., say the father of the latter came from Martha's Vineyard.

As the history of the other sons of John Pease, Sen., will not admit of such an inference, it seems safe to conclude that his son Samuel must have been the father of Nathaniel Pease; that removed in early life from Martha's Vineyard to Exeter, N.H., and met the fate of being killed by hostile Indians.
