I am trying to find out about a wench. Sears made it before becoming sears roebuck and now cafsman. How much it could be worth and history

It will be very difficult for us to tell you anything about it without pictures. Sears never made anything themselves, and they changed suppliers constantly.

before teaming up with roebuck in the 1880's Richard sears was a watch salesman. so if you have a sears wrench made before sears and roebuck you have a very rare item

The only Sears marked tools i have seen were Sears line of cheap tools with no guarantee.

Are you talking about a wrench like these ?
Made in Japan, in the 1970's

Or could you be talking about the Dunlop line ?
FWIW, the Dunlop V series is the earliest example of Moore Drop Forge co making tools for Sears (according to Alloy Artifacts)

Most men spend our lives trying to understand wenches, although we do learn, fairly quickly, that calling them wenches where they can hear us say it will lead to sleeping out in the backyard with the dog.

Right up there with Globemaster--which I understand float on water....

Sears started as a railroad telegraph operator.
His first business was selling watches he bought by the case and sold individually to railroad workers.
When there was a need to service the watches Sears brought Roebuck, an experienced watch repairman, into the business. 
The likelyhood of anything stamped or nomenclatured Sears alone being a legitimate Sears product is minimal, since there is no record of the original watches being marked Sears.

I bought a box of tools at a pawn shop yesterday and there were 3 Sears sockets made in Japan in the bottom.
