Text:   "David5 Eaton, the fifth generation from John and Anne of Salisbury and Haverhill, was born at Haverhill, 1 April 1729. His descent was James4, Jonathan3, Thomas2, John1. During his twenty second year, David moved to Tolland, Connecticut. On the 10th of October of that year (1751), he married Deborah White of the town of Coventry, Connecticut. Between the births of his sixth and seventh child, he moved from Tolland, Connecticut and settled in Cornwallis in Kings County, Nova Scotia. Deborah Eaton, mother of all his children, was born 19 May 1732 and died 20 May 1790. On the 23 December 1790, David Eaton married Mrs. Alice (English) Willoughby, widow of Dr. Samuel Willoughby, a physician who had come from Connecticut with the earliest settlers and had practiced medicine in Cornwallis until his death. The writer has been unable to find out the time of death or the place of buriel of the second Mrs. Eaton. David Eaton died at his home on Canard Street, near Hamilton's Corner on 17 July 1803, and was buried in the small burying ground, where his first wife Deborah, was buried."
"David Eaton received a full share of land in Cornwallis. Some planters received only a half a share, while others received a share and a half. A share of land was six hundred and sixty six and two thirds acres. Why there were differences in the sizes of land grants, the writer does not know. We do know that agents were sent to Nova Scotia from the New England States and that land had been layed out systematically and given to the planters as they arrived."
