Individual Details
Sarah Pearson
(26 February 1698/99 - By April 1728)
Investigate John Pearson/Parson and Tabitha Kendall of Lynn as possible parents.
There is a daughter Sarah born in 1721 for whom there is a guardianship in 1728 when she is in 7th year; Daniel Pierce of Woburn is made her guardian. He is also made the guardian of Rebecca. There is another person involved named Kendal Parson.
Kendall Parson/Pearson is child of John and Tabitha Kendall. They also have a daughter Sarah born in 1698. There is not a daughter Sarah mentioned in the father's will from 1728 so not sure what became of Sarah. There is not a death record for her as Sarah Pearson and there is not a marriage record for her in Lynn.
The guardianship case makes no reference to the mother Sarah, so perhaps this a guardianship after the mother's death. If she died in early 1728 (the guardianship is in April, 1728), she would not be in her father's will who died later in 1728. But it is a curiosity that he would not mention his grandchildren in the will.
Daniel Pierce who is mentioned lived 1676 to 1754 of Woburn and married to Dinah Holt. Not sure how he fits in with Edward Wright and why he would be the guardian. This seems to be the Daniel Pierce who died in Harvard, Worcester.
John Wright married Lydia Kendall in 21 Sep 1698 in Woburn.
There is an Elizabeth Kendall born in Woburn in 1653 daughter of Francis Kendall (who is the brother of Thomas Kendall who is the father of Tabitha) and she married either Joseph or James Pierce who is related to Daniel Pierce. So there are intermarriages involving Kendall, Pierce, Pearson, and Wright. John Wright and Daniel Pierce were both early settlers of Woburn as was Francis Kendall.
One source says Sarah Pearson (daughter of John and Tabitha) married James Macolly of Marblehead in 1723, but that is not correct. James Macolly died in 1734 and his wife Sarah was still living at that time according to probate records. And since John Pearson does not mention his daughter in his 1728 will we know she was deceased by then.
