Edmund (3), son of Edmund Grice Dolbeare, was born in Boston, March 5,1757. According to an obituary of his son in the New England HistoricGenealogical Register and "Tea Leaves of 1774", he was a fellowapprentice and afterward a partner with Henry Purkett in the business ofcooper in South street.
His residence was near Dr. Eliot's meeting house where he died in April,1796. His estate was not administered. He was a member of the Boston TeaParty. He was a soldier in the revolution from Grafton and Boston inCaptain Luke Drury's company, Colonel Jonathan Ward's regiment, July toNovember, 1775 (p. 848, vol. IV., Soldiers and Sailors in theRevolution). He took the place of Solomon Brooks in the army. In 1790,the first federal census, as printed by the government does not show hisname, but a better copy, published by the city of Boston shows that hehad one male under sixteen and seven females in his family (p. 501). Inthe same volume we find Mary Dolbeare and Sarah Dolbeare, both doubtlesswidows, owners of property on Clarke street. We know of but one child byname, Edmund Phillips, mentioned below.
