ichard⁴, b. 28 Sept. 1734; d.s.p., probably after 1754. The wording of the agreement for the distribution of the estate of Recompense³ Landers makes clear that this son Richard was deceased by August 1780, leaving no heirs, but as the son Savery is called "eldest and only surviving son" the implication is clear that the son Richard had lived for some years at least. Furthermore, at the marriage of Savery Landers in 1754, among those who signed the marriage certificate were his sisters Elizabeth and Lydia Landers, and a Richard who must have been this younger brother.

Also have death as after 1754. [Plymouth & Cape Cod MA Genealogy]
