DVR, p 274, Franklin and his wife Lucy A record of their childrenYarmouth 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.
