1672 1754 and mary read seaver 1680 who had married just two years earlier in 1700 the family name appeared in various spellings throughout the records sever severs and seaver a common occurrence in an era when spelling was not yet standardized young robert grew up in a growing family in the framingham and sudbury area his siblings included mary born 1706 nathaniel born 1709 hannah born about 1712 elizabeth born 1714 and abigail born about 1720 growing up as the eldest son in a colonial farming family robert would have learned valuable skills from his father while helping to care for his younger siblings marriage and family on september 2 1726 at the age of 23 robert married eunice rayment in boston eunice born june 12 1707 in marblehead and was the daughter of samuel rayment and eunice norman family tradition held that eunice s grandfather captain norman had perished when his ship wrecked on the rocky ledge outside boston harbor a treacherous spot that would forever after bear the name norman s woe robert and eunice built their life together along the border between sudbury and framingham and were blessed with eight children though records of the time captured only some of their births joseph seaver born june 10 1727 in sudbury christened june 11 1727 perhaps died at louisborgh in 1745 no further record benjamin seaver born october 8 1728 in framingham perhaps

christened 28 july 1754 died 1830 in new york married sarah cutter 1757 in 1772 11 children john seaver born about 1752 in framingham christened november 1754 no further record working life and property robert established himself as a skilled bricklayer a valuable trade in the growing massachusetts colony where new homes chimneys and public buildings were constantly needed however he also identified himself variously as a yeoman and husbandman in land records indicating he farmed as well a necessity for most colonial families who needed to grow their own food his business dealings show an active participant in the local economy in january 1737 robert purchased a substantial 100 acre parcel of upland and pasture in framingham from thomas frost for 500 pounds in bills of credit a significant investment the property was bounded by the lands of neighbors including hezekiah stone thomas frost nathaniel gibbs and his brother in law christopher nickson who had married his sister mary just three years later in september 1740 robert sold this same 100 acres to the manufactory company headed by robert auchmuty of roxbury for only 75 pounds in bills of credit as part of this transaction robert became a partner in the company suggesting this was more of a business arrangement than a simple land sale that same year his father joseph gave him five acres of valuable meadowland near west brook in sudbury for many good causes and considerations and especially in fatherly love and affection robert continued to actively buy and sell land parcels over the next several years demonstrating his engagement in the colonial land market that was so crucial to building wealth in that era military service and the siege of louisbourg the year 1745 brought both glory and tragedy to the seaver family when massachusetts joined other new england colonies in an ambitious expedition to capture the french fortress at louisbourg on cape breton island robert and his two eldest sons joseph and benjamin mere teenagers at the time enlisted together in captain ephraim baker s company of sir william pepperell s regiment the siege of louisbourg was one of the most significant military achievements of the colonial period after weeks of bombardment and fighting the supposedly impregnable fortress surrendered on june 28 1745 the victory was celebrated throughout new england as proof that colonial forces could achieve remarkable feats however for robert seaver the victory came at a devastating personal cost one of his sons either joseph or benjamin was killed during the campaign the historical records are unclear which son died but both disappear from all records after 1745 leaving a grieving father to return home without one of his boys the fire of 1748 tragedy struck again in october 1748 when robert s house in sudbury was consumed by fire everything the family owned was destroyed furniture household goods and even money including bills of credit and bonds in his desperate petition to the massachusetts general court for relief robert wrote poignantly my house was burned and consumed all the little substance i had in the world it being in movables and bonds and bills of credit in his petition robert reminded the court of his family s sacrifice at louisbourg noting that one of them is there still a heartbreaking reference to his son who lay buried far from home the court moved by his service and loss granted him 3 pounds and 15 shillings in compensation a modest sum that could hardly replace what was lost but at least an acknowledgment of his service to the colony a new beginning in westminster after the fire robert decided to start fresh in november 1750 he purchased lot 70 in narragansett no 2 which would later be renamed westminster from josiah brown of sudbury for 60 pounds this land was part of territory originally assigned to soldiers who had served in the indian wars a fitting new home for a veteran the lot was located in the southeast part of town on the highland nearly a mile northeast of the outlet to wachusett lake by the spring of 1751 robert had made remarkable progress despite being nearly 50 years old and starting over after losing everything he had erected a frame house fenced three acres of land cleared two acres and broken up one acre ready for planting it was a testament to his determination and skill as both a builder and farmer final days and estate robert seaver died in early 1752 probably in the late winter or spring at approximately 49 years of age he died intestate without a will leaving his widow eunice to manage the settlement of his estate she was appointed administratrix and an inventory was conducted by oliver wilder david hoar and joseph miller on september 26 1752 the inventory provides a touching window into the modest life of a colonial craftsman his real estate was valued at 66 13 04 and his personal possessions painted a picture of a working man s household a yoke of oxen two cows one horse two calves farming implements including a plow with five plow irons a shovel rakes and a pitchfork his bricklayer s tools were there two trowels old axes a shave and stone hammers the household contained bedding and furniture five old chairs an old table two chests a spinning wheel pewter and wooden plates iron pots a frying pan and books including a bible there were also 4 000 bricks and 1 750 feet of boards the materials of his trade along with three thousand shingles the total estate was valued at 106 13 06 but debts exceeded what could be raised from selling the personal property to settle these obligations eunice sold the 60 acres in lot 70 in two transactions on april 7 1755 one parcel to luke brown of worcester for 20 pounds and another to ezra taylor for a total of 54 pounds 8 shillings and 10 pence her final account as administratrix was approved on august 21 1755 eunice s later years eunice seaver went b ack to sudbury with her younger children and joined the first parish church of sudbury on 14 december 1755 samuel sever son of eunice sever was baptized at the first parish church of sudbury on 28 july 1754 although the record says son to widow thankful eunice sever is listed as a member of the first church of sudbury on 17 november 1772 she finally passed away in 1773 or 1774 most likely in sudbury at approximately 66 or 67 years of age legacy robert seaver s life exemplified the resilience required of colonial americans he worked as both a skilled craftsman and farmer served his colony in war paying a terrible price for that service survived devastating loss and still found the strength to begin again on the frontier though his life was cut short his descendants including children like thankful who lived until at least 1811 moses who died in 1809 robert jr who died in 1828 and samuel who died in 1830 carried on his legacy spreading throughout new england and beyond through at least 42 grandchildren his story reminds us that behind the dry dates and property records of genealogy lie real people who loved their families endured heartbreaking losses and persevered through circumstances that would challenge anyone robert seaver was a builder a soldier a father who mourned his son and a man who refused to give up even when fire took everything he owned that is a legacy
