I just read the name of Charlie Bearse and have to ask if you’re a descendant of Augustine Bearse my 9th great grandfather? We all seem to be related many times over from the lines listed. Jeremiah Howes is my 9th great, Richard Sears my 10th great. Two of the Bearse children Pricilla and Joseph are our lines as well also. Let us know when we can purchase the Howes book please.

This is a joint venture between Bob and the Dennis, Mass. Historical Society. I have worked with Bob on this project over the years as there are many connections between the Howes and Sears families - in fact I am descended from all three of Thomas Howes sons (serious pedigree collapse here)-My Aunt says it's a wonder we aren't all idiots. Hi Ray, I also am descended from two of his sons whose children married each other------only one of similar situations in my early Cape ancestry. I will be interested in obtaining a copy when the book is published.
