      108. Mary3 Pearsall (Mary2 Seaman, John1) died Unknown. She married Richard Valentine (Source: Pearsall, Clarence E., History and Genealogy of the Pearsall Family in England and America, (San Francisco: H.S. Crocker Co., 1928), 1340.), son of Richard Valentine and Sarah Halstead. He was born Abt. 1681 in Hempstead, Queens Co. [now Nassau Co.], NY, and died Bef. 1768.

Notes for Richard Valentine:
RICHARD VALENTINE (1681-bef 1768) is thought to have been born at Hempstead. The first public record in which Richard is found is a deed dated 25 October, 1715 in which John Jackson of Hempstead sells a certain piece of property to his son, James Jackson of Flushing, describing the land as “the Harbour Hill” in Hempstead adjacent to lands of Richard Valentine, Jr. The next record which mentions him is that of his father’s Will which was made in 1723. He is believed to have married MARY, daughter of THOMAS and MARTHA (SEAMAN) PEARSAL(L), for he is next mentioned with Henry Pearsal in the Will of Charles Mott of Cowneck, dated 21 August, 1729 as “my brothers-in-law”. Charles Mott requested that his executors sell the land he bought from Noah Barton in Westchester, (Westchester County, NY). He devised to his wife, Deborah (Valentine/Pearsal); to his daughters Abigail, Elizabeth and Mary, all under the age of 18, and four Joseph, Thomas, Samuel and Sylvanus Mott. He referred to his father, Charles Mott and his uncle, Adam Mott. Witnesses were Jacob Mott, Alexander Yong, William Kirk and Thomas Pearsal. [NYHS COLL XI:156] Herny Pearsall (Sr.), Mary’s grandfather, was one of the original fifty proprietors of Hempstead with 9 acres in Mr. Washborn’s Neck, 12 acres more in Mr. Fordham’s neck and 12 acres held “for estate”.
In December, 1753, Richard (Sr), for love and affection, deeded to his youngest son, Richard "equal moiety or half part of all my land." [HTR IV:295] On 20 March 1758, Richard, yeoman, of Hempstead Harbour, deeded land to his son, Richard, Jr., yeoman, of same, that was land bequeathed to him by his son, John Valentine, in his Will dated 3 May, 1748. [HTR IV:293]
Whether Richard had been brought up in the Society of Friends or adopted the Quaker faith when he married Mary Pearsal is difficult to say. Though a through search of available Quaker records has not revealed the first mention of him or his children, it is entirely possible he belonged to a unit of the Quakers who’s records have not survived. According to the family tradition as written in 1858 he was a Quaker; his wife’s family undoubtedly belonged to this faith. It is noted that the north side of town - in which the Valentines lived - was “rapidly become a Quaker area” , about the time of Richard’s birth. Such leaders as John Seaman, Mary’s maternal grandfather; and Nathaniel and Thomas Pearsall, Mary’s uncle and father, had jointed that Society.
Richard "of Hempstead Harbour, Queens County," left a Will dated 4 April, 1768, proven 18 June, 1768. In it he refers to himself as being "far advanced in years." He bequeathed to his sister
(sister-in-law) Ann Pearsall, the use of the west dwelling house and two lean-tos on the north side along with the cellar and Chamber, and one-half of his meadow ground below the house with firewood for her use to support one fire, a cow and his black horse, and the privilege to gather apples. She was to have pasturage for both until her death or marriage. He also gave her all the beds she called hers, linen she marked with by name, a year’s board or provision, wool and flax and two barrels of cider yearly. He mentioned his grandson, George Weeks to whom he devised a piece of meadow ground lying west of his house and which he had given a deed to him, and to his deceased grandson, Richard Weeks, containing six acres." He stated, "if there is any dispute made by the executors of my son, Richard, or my grandson Richard Valentine, the son of my deceased son, Richard Valentine, then my grandson, George Weeks is to have as much other land." The executors were to divide the land that had laid in common between him and the children of his deceased son, Richard. They were to sell eighty acres of land above the Hill eastward to the house. He devised to his son, Joseph, fifty acres of land lying on the west side of the road and joining the east side of Onderdonk’s mill pond, and a small piece of land on the east side of the highway, and adjoining the north side of Thomas Ireland’s land. He also left to his son, Joseph, one-half of all the undivided lands in Hempstead. To his grandson, Richard Valentine, son of his deceased son, Richard, the other half. The executors of his Will were to pay to his “sister-in-law”, Phebe Valentine, the use of all lands, gardens and buildings not ordered to be sold during ten years to support her and her children and they were to be sold with monies being paid to grandsons, Richard and Samuel Valentine, sons of his son Richard, deceased. To his two granddaughters, Jemima Baker and
Abigail Weeks, he gave all of the household goods with the rest of his personal estate being sold. Thomas Seaman of Westbury, Israel Pearsall of Hempstead Harbor, his loving friends, and his grandson, Richard Kirk, were appointed executors of the Will. Witnesses were Elijah Gowdy,
Hendrick Onderdonk and Samuel Willis. [NYHS COLL VII:183-4]
