 Richard Stuart, son of Ebenezer Stuart and Elizabeth Johnson.Born Oct 15, 1704 at Rowley, Massachusetts, died 1777, 72 or 73 years RFN1040 BIOGRAPHY Bibliographic Information: Stuart, Joseph A. Genealogical History of the Duncan Stuart Family in America. Caxton Press. 1894. 3. RICHA RD, born Oct. 15, 1704, is described in deeds as a husbandman and cordwainer. He married Judith, the daughter of Joseph Poor, previous to 1729. In 1737 an d In 1744 he bought land of his brother John, and in 1746 he bought his sister Ann's share of their late father's estate.--By the Rowley records Richard had :--Ebenezer, Jan. 3, 1729; Joseph, Aug. 5, 1731. Mr. Haskins found a deed by R ichard Stewart, of Leominster, in 1775, conveying to Richard Foster, of Boxfor d, land in Boxford coming to said Richard's wife, Mary, from the estate of her father, Samuel Flak, of Boxford. An Ebenezer Stewart witnessed the deed. Mr. Haskins thought this was Ebenezer's Richard, and that he was twice married, b ut there seems to be no such marriage record in either Boxford or Rowley, nor any death record of his first wife. I think the Richard, of Leominster may hav e been his son, born later than Joseph. (See Appendix C, page 117.)
