(70). Seth Lewes, son of Benjamin, born Aug. 1, 1704,
married by Joseph Doaue, Esq., Oct. 22, 1724, to Sarah Revis.
His early residence was at a house built by Israel Hamblin, near
a pond, on Dimmock's lane, known as Israel's pond—a solitary
place surrounded by the forest, and more than a mile from a
neighbor.* He probably did not reside there many years. I
think he owned the estate at Cooper's pond, where his son Benjamin
afterwards resided. Seth Lewes died in 1751, aged 47.
The births of his children I do not find on the town records.
The baptisms of his children are recorded in the church records.

Hyannis, married Elizabeth, daughter of Thomas Cobb of Barnstable,
Oct. 13, 1737, aged 22 years. He was a shoemaker and
resided on the north side of the town after his marriage. His
wife was a member of the East Church, and died May 31, 1751,
aged 36 years. Jonathan Lewes, 3d, was of about the same age
as Jonathan, Jr., and both had Elizabeths for their wives, and it
is diflflcult to distinguish their families.
