My great-grandfather came here from England and changed Esty to Estey since he thought the original spelling was too short. Living here in MA, my family has had the opportunity to visit Salem. One of the "witches" burned at the stake was a Mary Esty. The spelling of the surname is varied including Eastie, Easty, Esty, Estey, etc. How would I go about finding if there was any relation?
Also, just curious if I have any "unmet" relatives out there! My grandfather was Otis Estey. He married Hazel Davis. Both are now deceased but lived and raised their children in Stoughton, MA until moving to Wareham, MA. They had 7 children, Mel Estey (deceased, last known addy in TX), Otis Estey Jr, David Estey, Richard Estey, Elizabeth (Estey) Brennan, Bernice Estey (deceased), and Mary (Estey) Bunavicz...my Mom. If you think you may know any of my relatives or may be one yourself, please feel free to contact me!
