Notes:
Buried in old burying ground on High Street, Hampshire, MA, behind the meeting house (currently under the First Congregational Church which had been moved to make more room for the Commons). Her gravestone lies in the cemetery west of the church, off of the south-west corner of the Church building. Tombstone inscription visible. On the Old Center Cemetery map, the plot is numbered A-88. Tombstone reads: "Esther Avstin, the wife of Capt. Antony Avstin dyed March 7 1698 aged 55 years." Is Suffield in CT or MA? I have both in different places. 2005--Suffield is in CT, according to my atlas.
