According to legend, Richard and his wife came from Cornwall about 1644. He was a farmer and lived south of Musquashcut Pond at Mann Hill. He drowned when he fell through the ice on the pond. His son sued John Cowen, his mother's second husband, for making improvements to the property without permission.
Richard and his wife Rebecca probably came to this country a few years prior to 1644. He was one of 31 persons of Scituate who took
the "Oath of Fidelity" 15 Jan 1644. He was a farmer, and one of the original land proprietors. He selected one of the most beautiful
locations on the coast for his residence and farm called Mann Hill. His neighbor on the south was John Hoar, who later removed to Concord, MA. On the east was the sea, north was Musquascut Pond. In an attempt to cross the pond in Feb 1655, the ice broke and he was drowned.
