• Notes

  John was deeded a plantation in Barbados from Robert and Ann Tothill in 1663. It consisted of 10 acres in St. Michael Parish, and belonged to the late Lt . Francis Piggot. It was bounded North and East by other lands of Lt. Piggot, on the South by lands of Charles Playdwell and West by lands which belonged to Bonham Carter. John died and was burried 28 April 1666. John was the overseer of the will of Richard Peers dated 13 March 1661. Edward Peers named John and his daughter, Peers Ashcroft, in his will. The fact that John Ashcroft named his daughter Peers indicates a close relationship. By some accounts John's wife was Elizabeth Peers. In the will of John Peers dated 16 March 1688, Elizabeth Ashcraft and her children John, Richard, Edward, Susanna and Elizabeth were mentioned. Richard Peers son, Edward, wrote his will on 16 April 1665. John Ashcroft and his daughter Peers received legacies equal to the amount left to Edward's sister. Some records indicate that John Ashcrafte was in New England for brief pereiods as early as 1632. It seems that John tried to come to America in 1632 abord the Constance, but the ship never sailed to Virginia ans John is in St. Andrew, Holborn,London between December 1635 and July 1637.
