Page 65. 27. James-4 Pendleton (Caleb-3), was born about 1689, probably atWesterly, RI, and died there 9 June 1753. James Pendleton was baptizedwith his father on the 23rd Jul 1693, in the First Church at Stonington,Conn. He seems to have made his home at Westerly all his life, where heengaged in farming. On the 24th of Dec 1727, he bought of his cousin,Sarah-4 Walker, for 10s, all her rights that she had in a certain tractof land "That was given to my Honrd. Grandfather Capt. James Pendletondeceased, by reason of his services in ye Indian War formerly, which landis in ye township of Voluntown, Conn." (W.L.E.) On the 19th of November 1731, James-4 bought of Richard Lanphere,"Eldest son and heir to Mr. George Lanphere, late of Westerly, dec.,"part of George Lanphere's homestead farm for 100 pounds (Ibid., v, 347);18th March 1743/3, James and his father Caleb, gave deed in James' son,Thomas Pendelton, of land in Westerly (Ibid., iv, 44). On the 28 January,1744/5, James Pendleton was given a certificate of residence in theselectmen of Voluntown, Conn. (Westerly C. & P. rec., ii, 400), but we donot know whether he ever went there or not. James-4 Pendleton married (1), at Westerly, RI, 12th Jan 1709/10,Elizabeth Lanphere (T.R.) daughter of George Lanphere, ; Pendleton signedan agreement with the other heirs of Lanphere, 25 April 1727 (C.& P.rec., 1719-1731, p. 136). He married (2), at Westerly 6th January,1717/18, Elizabeth Brown, daughter of Thomas, Jr. (T.R.) and Hannah(Collins) Brown. She was born at Stonington, Conn., 9th May 1694. On the23rd March, 1735, she owned covenant to the Stonington Church. Shesurvived her husband many years and in her old age the Town Council ofWesterly made provision for her support from 1772 to 1776, during part ofwhich time her son Samuel was paid for her maintenance. James Pendleton's will confirms the following list of his children,which appears in the Westerly records.
