This most variable surname has caused some confusion and Savage in his Genealogical Dictionary thought it "an impossible one". It probably originated as Eastgate. In Braintree town records it is usually Ezgate and in the church records as Isgate. Rev. Samuel Niles records it in 1752 as Easgate.

Eleazer Ezgate first is of record in Braintree at his marriage Jun.24,1675 to Joyce Goodwin. These people may have come here from Maine.

"Eleazer Ezgat" took the oath of allegiance at Braintree about 1678.
He is mentioned in town records only when on May 12,1718 "Eliezer Isgate" was voted to have liberty for getting stones off the common (with his own hands) what he pleases and that without paying for them".

S.P.32-424: Will of Eliezer Isgate "being now upon a sick bed and not knowing but it may prove my death bed," Sep.24,1718 - Apr.27,1736:

To daughter Abigail my bed I now be on "beding" after her mother's decease. To wife Abigail my cow, swine, & one third of all moveables, two thirds of moveables to be divided among all my children.
