Perhaps this will tie to you line back a few generations:

William Fassitt signed a petition to Crown in Somersett Co., MD 26 Nov 1689:

"To the King and Queen most Ext [excellent] Majty [majesty] Wee your Majesty's subjects in the County of Somersett and Province of Maryland being refreshed and encouraged by your Majestys great and prosperous undertakings, and by your late gracious letter to those of this Province, do cast ourselves at your Majesty's feet humbly desiring and hopefully
expecting the continuance of your Majtys care of us, as our Case and Circumstance doe or may require, in the confidence whereof wee resolve to continue (by the Grace of God) in the Profession and defence of the Protestant Religion and your Majesty's Title and interest against the French and other Paptists that oppose and trouble us in soe just and good
a cause not doubting but your Majestys wisdom and clemency will afford unto us all needful suitable Aid and Protection for securing our Religion lives and liberty under Protestant Governors and Government, and for enabling us to defend ourselves against all Invaders. Thus praying for
your Majestys long and happy Reigne over us. Wee know ourselves to bee (with due Reverence and sincerity) Your Majestys Loyall Obedient and humble Subjects.
