!S.P. May handnotes Nathan Sears was born in the old family homestead, still
standing, which was built by his grandfather in the last century, and which is now the home of Henry H Sears, the great-grandson of the builder. The common school and the old Academy at East Dennis furnished the means for his education until he was fourteen years of age when he went to sea as cook. He served in various capacities in coasting and foreign voyages until 1852, when he retired.
The same year he went into the fishing and mercantile business as one of the
firm Kelly, Sears & Co., until 1875, when he assumed the care of his farm.
Mr Sears resides in his beautiful house, erected in 1848, in East Dennis,
within a stone's cast of the house in which he, as well as his father, was born.
He has found his time fully occupied with his varied business interests and
has therefore avoided the busy arena of politics. A republican in his
convictions, he has filled no other offices than such comparitively
unimportant ones as pertain to his immediate locality.
He renders material aid to the Wesleyan Methodist Church, and is open-handed in all public enterprises. In the evening of an industrious and varied life, he enjoys a competency amid the scenes of his childhood, and the confidence of all who know him.

Yarmouth Register, 29 May 1875, Harwich Port - Died, in Harwich Port, May 22d of paralysis, Rev Franklin Sears, aged 66 years. In his death the Methodist Episcopal Church loses one of her most faithful and beloved ministers. He has filled regular appointments on the Providence Conference for many years, although never a member of the Conference. His last regular station was Pocasset, where early in 1872 a stroke of paralysis compelled him to resign his charge and return to the home of his early manhood, at Harwich Port. For the past three years his zeal for the "Master" would lead him still to preach, but physical infirmity hindered. Prescious memories of this servant of God will linger in the hearts of all who have known his faith and cheerfulhope. With his lifework well done he has passsed on to enjoy the fruition of Heaven.
