In 1593 he became vicar of Chesterton, Cambridgeshire, being presented by Trinity College who were patrons of the living. He resigned this post only three years later in 1596.[2]

Edward died in 1598 and was buried on 7 March 1597/1598 at St Peter, Birstall, Yorkshire: "Mr Edwarde Batt, Bachelor in Divinitie".[3] His will was proved on 15 July 1600 at York: Battie, Edward, B.D., Okewell, (Pontefract Deanery), Feb 26 40 Eliz., vol 28 folio 171.[4]

I added John Batte-62 as father. Who John married/mother of his children is still being researched. Dugdale has Margaret Thurgurland, but that's in dispute. See more info on Batte of Oakwood resources.
