Devizes: St John Baptist Parish Registers
Berrett, Robert and Eliza Francis both of Steeple Ashton
married here 10 Sept 1655Second wife: we assume from the fact that his will names his wife
Edith and his first wife was buried 1684 before he made his will
that he married again prior to his death in 1688.Robert Berrett (1633-1688) (md. Elizabeth Francis)
The third son of Robert Berrett (1604) was christened "Robert" 3 Mar 1633 in Steeple Ashton, Wiltshire, England. His oldest brother, Robert was buried 21 Oct. 1632, and according to custom the young brother was given the name of his deceased older brother.
Robert was married probably in the latter part of August or in September of 1655 in Devizes, Wiltshire, to Elizabeth Francis of Steeple Ashton. It was the custom in England during this time, and it became the law in 1754, to proclaim or announce from the pulpit of the church or in a local newspaper or bulletin, the names of the persons planning to marry. This public announcement was known as the "banns" of marriage, and was usually announced or published for three consecutive Sundays. The purpose of the banns was to "prevent clandestine marriages." If someone objected to the proposed marriage, they discussed their objection with the rector. If there were no objections, the marriage went as planned, usually shortly after the last of the three proclamations. When the requirements of the law were met, the couple was married "by banns." It is known that one of the proclamations of the intended marriage of Robert and Elizabeth was 5 Aug 1655, but the exact date of their marriage is unknown.
Elizabeth was christened 3 Jul 1625 in Steeple Ashton and is the daughter of Steven Francis (b. ca 1599). Her mother's name is unknown. Elizabeth had one known sister, Marie, who was christened 18 Oct 1629.
Elizabeth and Robert Berrett had five children - 4 girls and one boy, Robert. Through this only son, the "Berretts of Down Berrett Lane" descended. Elizabeth died when she was fifty-nine years old and was buried 12 Sep 1684. Ann, Robert's youngest child, was eighteen years old at her mother's death and was not married when her father died in 1688.
Robert of 1633 married a second wife, Edith, about whom we know nothing more than her first name. There is no record of children being born of this marriage. Edith was left a widow when Robert was buried 29 Aug 1688.
Just seven days before his death, Robert had a will prepared that gives more insight into his life. He Was a husbandman and rented a farm he called "mudmead" from a William Coster. He raised hay on this small farm (probably three acres) located a fourth of a mile northeast of Snarlton. Although he was known as a resident of Steeple Ashton, he actually lived one mile northwest of the village in a very small area called "Snarlton." There he had a "leasehold" or "right" to lease a house, garden and orchard from Walter Long, Lord of the manor. The cottage passed down through the family from father to son for several generations, as did also the three acre farm, "mudmead" This cottage and farm are the first "known" Berrett property.
Robert willed his real estate to his wife, Edith, along with his table board, cupboard, buttery, chest, two cows, hay and blocks of firewood. To his daughter, Mary, he bequeathed one feather and flocked bed and bedstead. To others he willed money. He made his only son, Robert (1661), the executor of the will and signed his name with an "X", which most people of England would have done during that period of time. From the opening paragraphs of the will one can see that Robert (1633) was a Christian with faith in the Savior and the Atonement.

At date of incorporation (of town of Taunton) in 1639 the name of Thomas
Caswell appeared in the list of its hoseholders & Proprietors.
Like the other Original settlers he probably came from Taunton, in
Somersetshire, England his will was admitted to probate in 1697
THE CASWELL FAMILYTHOMAS CASWELL [#182], d. prob. Taunton, MA Mar 1697, m. abt. 1647 MARY ____.
Thomas Caswell was an early resident of Taunton as in 1643 he was on a roster of the First Military Company of Taunton. This was a list of "all the males able to beare armes from XVI
years to 60 yeares". He was most probably born in England, but it is not now known when he came to this country. He was probably not one of the original settlers of Taunton because
he does not appear on the list of the 46 original purchasers or the list of 35 subsequent purchasers.It is not known where in England Thomas came from but the Caswell name is common in the county of Somerset, and a large number of Somersetshire families settled in Taunton. In the
parish of North Curry, Somerset on October 20, 1618, Thomas Caswell, son of Thomas Caswell, was baptised. This Thomas would be of the right age to be the Thomas of Taunton, but
proof of a connection is lacking. Thomas probably married in Taunton about 1648 to Mary ____. Mary's maiden name is unknown, but her son Peter, in a testamentary deed, made
mention of his "aunt Bryant".[2/17:438] This aunt could be Mary's sister, but unfortunately her maiden name can not be established either.[5/35:111]In 1651 Thomas and eleven other townsmen made up a panel of inquest into the drowning death of ten year old William England, servant to Joseph Wildbore, who accidentally fell out of
a canoe on the Great River (now Taunton River). Thomas signed his name, "Tho: Caswell", to the verdict.[6/2:1756] The people of Taunton chose Thomas as hayward on March 11, 1655,
apparently the only elected position he ever held. In 1657 "Tho: Casswell" took the Oath of Fidelity in Taunton.[5/36:79] In 1662 he served on the "Grand Enquest" for the Colony of New
Plymouth.[6/4:14] In 1667 he was again called upon to serve with eleven others on a panel of inquest into the accidental drowning of Timothy Poole, to which he signed his name
"Thomas Caswell"[6/4:171]Thomas settled on the land that had belonged to John Kingsley, an original proprietor who had moved to Rehoboth, MA. On December 28, 1659 he was granted 42 acres of land in
Taunton, and there were nine in his family at the time. He and his wife and six children account for eight. The ninth may have been a servant, a child whose birth and death were not
recorded, or some other relative. On the sixth of June 1668 Thomas was one of those to purchase shares in the Taunton North Purchase,[4/3:118] which was later set of as Norton, parts of
Mansfield and Easton.[5] Several years later he was also involved in the South Purchase, a four square mile tract bought from King Phillip and which now lies within the town of Berkley.
Thomas was listed as a head of household in 1675, a year in which King Phillip was apparently having second thoughts about his earlier land sale to the English.Thomas Caswell's name appears on a rate list dated October 16, 1683 to defray the expenses of plastering the meeting house, his comparitively large assessment being one shilling eleven
pence. He was also assessed eighteen shillings as his proportion of the sum to be paid to purchase Mr. Danforth's land, according to an undated Taunton list.[5/35:113]Also in 1683 the name of Thomas Caswell was included on a military document, and although this was probably Thomas Jr., an abstract is included here in order to give a flavor of the
times. The Taunton Military Company was split at this time into four squadrons. The members of each squadron were to bring their fire arms to Sunday meeting once a month, each
squadron taking a different sabbath. The court ordered that every soldier was to bring his arms when it was his turn with six charges of powder and shot and to be fined if he failed to do
so. A steeper fine was to be imposed if he refused. Also, any member who stayed away from meeting because they would not bring their arms were to be summoned to court. Apparently
the arms were necessary to protect the congregation against Indian attack.In the 1691 Inspection Return, taken at the time of King William's War, "Thomas Caswell, sen" is shown as having been supplied with a gun, a cartouch box, powder, and bullets, while
the following year his gun was pressed for Nathan Presbiter and valued at œ1. In 1693 Thomas served on a jury ordered by the town to lay out a road to William Hack's, the report of
which he signed on May 27, 1693.[5/35:1134]As for Thomas Caswell's land holdings, on November 27, 1649, at a town meeting, he was granted his second division, on the other side of Two Mile River opposite Thomas Coggins'
land extending to the head of the great lots there. The wording of this grant seems to imply an earlier grant, possibly in the first division, but no record of this has been found. On
December 28, 1659 he was granted forty-two acres for "9 Heads" (mentioned above), on which he paid a tax of 11 shillings and three pence. On January 3, 1660 it was said that Thomas
Caswell's home lot shall extend in length as far as Shadrach Wildbore's land. The Proprietors' records list the lands in possession of Thomas Caswell Sr. on Jan. 8, 1665 as follows: his
home lot, 6 acres, lying between Samuel Wilbore to the east and the widow Paul on the southwest; the addition to his home lot, being on the other side of the Great River, between
Samuel Wilbore on the southwest and Mrris Farwell on the east; 4 acres of meadow on the other side of the Great River lying between two brooks, Walter Dean's meadow lying to the
west of this tract on the other side of one of the brooks; one pond, called the "Stage Pond", being three acres lying between the Iron Works and the Four Mill Pond (called Titicut Pond);
his "division", being 11 acres at the east end of the above meadow, bounded by James Bell's land on the east end and the Great River on the northwest, and extending to the Common on
the south; and his "second division" of land, being 42 acres lying on the southeast side of his meadow, with "Plymouth path" on the west and the lands of widow Dean on the southeast,
and extending to a little plain being a "common".[5/35:114]Later, on March 22, 1669, Thomas was granted three acres of swamp on the Three Mile River "at a place where the beavers did dam up the water". On October 24, 1682 he was further
granted thirty acres on John Kingsley's right and on December 23, 1684 he was granted two acres at a place called Pool's Brook, the western bound of which was the path that came from
the Iron Works.[5/35:1145]Thomas' will was dated September 28, 1691 with a codicil dated March 15, 1696-7 and was probated September 14, 1697. In it he mentioned his wife Mary and his six sons and
daughters.[1/1:196] The inventory of the estate was taken March 30, 1697 and ammounted to 306.09.06.[1/1:197] On March 12, 1721-2 his son Thomas and daughters Mary Thrasher,
Sarah Hoskins, Hannah Ramsdel, Elizabeth Leonard, Abigail Jones, and Esther Smith sold their rights in Thomas' estate to their brother Samuel.[2/14:316]REF: [1] Bristol County Probate
