      Resided at Pearsall (Lynbrook), Hellgate Neck, and Hempstead, Long Island, New Netherlands. He married Ann Valentine, widow of Moyles Williams. The Valentines were Dutch-English traders associated with the Pearsalls in Virginia in Isle of Wight County where they were also closely related by marriage with the Marshall family, so much so that it is generally accepted that from the marriage of a Valentine and a Marshall descended John Marshall, Chief Justice of the United States and Thomas Marshall, Vice President of the United States. He was one of the founders of Hempstead, Long Island and was engaged in the family tobacco trade. He was the son of Thomas Pearsall.
