Ancestry.com has a marriage record from Tennessee of a woman supposedly name Vespasia N. Washburn marrying Thomas Bass in Wilson, County, Tennessee in 1872. The same woman seems to be listed as "Vepasia" in the 1880 census of Smith County, Tennessee. And she's listed as "Pasia Washburn" in the 1870 census of Wilson County.

It certainly was used in ancient Rome, because the emperor Vespasian's mother was Vespasia Polla.
