Miscellaneous:

John was the first Astatt to reside at Martha's Vineyard. He probably belonged to a family of this name which resided in Lyme, Conn., and various branches of it are found under the spelling of Atsett, Adsit and possibly Edget. John was a tailor and was admitted the church at E. 1748 which is the probable date of his appearance on the Island. He was in the "alarm list" of the militia in 1757 and moved to Conway, Massachusetts before 1790.

John and Bathsheba had six children: John, Thomas, Bathsheba, Sarah, Mary, and ___ Astatt (#70) (The source of this information is The History of Martha's Vineyard by Dr. Charles Banks, 1911, Volume III Family Genealogies:  pp. 27-30).
