Miscellaneous
Quoted from Poole:He was influential in town affairs and in the island's efforts to obtain adequate defense against the British. In 1776, Mr. Cottle was one of three men from Tisbury to join committee members from the other towns of the island to petition the General Court to grant more men, arms and munitions for defense against the British. He was also one of the three representatives to present this petition to the General Court in Boston in June of that year. In September, they petitioned for ten whale boats "for use of the island garrisons". But at the end of 1776, only one company was left on the Vineyard; petitions were ignored and the Vineyard was left to its own devices. However, Vineyarders were a hardy and resourceful lot and they survived the hardships though their economy suffered drastically - one cause of the migrations to Maine.
