It appears to be witnessed by Enoch Coffin and Sam? Butler. I also have an original "pay roster" listing the names of Coffin, Norton etc. with amounts beside their names. " it being in full for wages due to us for service done in the colony from the time of our going upon pay till the last day of February 1776." We acquired these from an antiques dealer (now deceased) many years ago. If this is of interest/help, please contact me. I found your website on the computer researching Marthas Vineyard. wsaponaro@aol.com
