Biographical Notes

Bio Published*Rev. Joseph Eaton: Was an early member of Montgomery and the first pastor of New Britain; was admitted to membership from Welsh Tract in June, 1721. He was twice married. His first wife was Gwen Morgan who died in 1723. On the 17th of March, 1724, he married Uriah Humphrey, "Uriah" being then a woman's name. She came from Pennypack. She survived her husband ten years, or till 1759. The Easton family first settled in Lower Dublin, Philadelphia, where George Eaton purchased land in 1695. Joseph Eaton was born in Nantmel, Radnorshire, Wales, August 25th 1679. In 1686, when a child of seven, he was brought to America. About 1721 he bought 353 acres, mostly lying in Montgomery township, a small portion in New Britain. It was along the present State road, comprising the present farms of John Robers, Ephraim Kratz, Alfred Comly and Albert Arthur. His home was on the site of the Arthur farmhouse. Eaton was called to the ministry in 1722, and was ordained in 1727, when a man of middle age. He often preached at Montgomery as the assistant of Griffith, and became minister at New Britain in 1744, preaching there for five years. He lived over four miles distant, and we may suppose that he preached but once a Sunday. He took an active part in sustaining the side of New Britain in the dispute with Montgomery. His death took place April 1st, 1749, at the age of seventy. His children were eight by his first wife, and three by the second. In his will mention is made of John, Joseph, Edward, Gerge, David, Mary, William, Joanna Goodwin and Sarah Jones. By the second wife were Isaac, Jacob and Hannah. Morgan Edwards, writing in 1770, says" "George and Jacob died childless. Joseph is not married. The rest formed alliances with the Todd, Young, David, Wall, Williams, Goodwin, Jones, Butler, Wilgus, Stout and Doyle families, who have raised him a numerous progeny of grandchildren." One son, Isaac, became a Baptist minister, and removed to Hopewell, New Jersey, of which church he long continued the pastor.
