Unmarked grave. ****************************************** Eastham Cove Burying Ground Possible Unmarked Graves of Adults up to 1730 This listing was compiled from Eastham death records contained on the Eastham Ancient Records CD plus other published genealogy sources. Names are listed in chronological order by year of death. (last updated April 2011) Richard Knowles, between 1670 & 1675, adult ******************************************* From FAG Memeber #48233669: A list of all their children: John 1641-1675 Mary 1659-1674 Ruth 1657-1714 Barbara 1656-1714 Mehitable 1653-1721 Samuel 1651-1737 James 1648-1678 Mercy 1642-1692 ******************************************* From FAG Member #47885140: Richard Knowles "Death between 1670 and 1675, for he was the surveyor of highways in 1670 at Eastham in 1670 but is not mentioned in the will of either his son John who died in 1675 or son James in 1678." (Charles Thornton Libby, Knowles Family, of Eastham, Mass. (Boston, MA: n.p., 1926), page 288 [NEHGR July, 1925]) As for Mary Knowles who married Ephraim Doane there is nothing in the book to suggest two Marys or a Mercy. Maybe "Mercy" is in the Doane documents or some other record.
