John b. 1764 (who married Lucinda Roth) was the son of William Gavitt and his wife Anna Crary. (William was a corporal at the Battle of Crown Point on Lake Champlain.)I have no further info on Anna. William was born 11 Nov 1737 in Westerly, Washington Co.,RI. I have at least two other children...Anna b.20 Dec 1761 married John Prentice Babcock 15 Mar 1778.; and William b.02 Apr 1766 m. Lucretia Graham 02 Jul 1837. This William died in Paterson, NJ.15 Dec 1852.
William b. 1737 was the son of Ezekial Gavitt Jr. b. 18 Oct 1710 and his wife Amey Babcock b. 08 Feb 1712/13 (dau. of John Babcock and Mary Champlin).
Ezekial, Jr. was the son of Ezekial Gavitt
b. 25 Dec 1683 at Westerly, RI and his wife
Hannah Wilcox b.04 Oct 1679 at Westerly, RI.
Ezekial Sr was b.25 Dec 1683, at Marblehead, MA To Philip Gavey who was b. abt 1651 on the Isle of Jersey... see below...and his wife Hannah Machonne.
The Gavet(t), Gavit(t), Gaveys were Huguenot's from the Isle of Jersey, which they left at the revocation on the Edict of Nantes by King Louis XIV, in 1685.
It is said that Phillip Gavet came from the Island of Jersey to Marblehead, MA., ca. 1647. If so then the possibility exists that this Phillip had a father Phillip, rather than Martin. Martin Gavey is at present thought to be Philip's (b 1651) father.
Hope this helps.....Ray
