Yeaton Full Register Report
Perhaps, if the origin of the above coat of arms is found, we can find the English origins and ancestry of the Yeaton family. Given the fact that the Yeaton men maintained the “family business” of fishing for many generations and the fact that several families which settled in the New Castle area were from Devonshire, England, I suspect that the family is from the Devonshire or Cornwall area of that country.
Yeaton is an “old name” in the Portsmouth, Rockingham co., New Hampshire area. Members of this family can also be found in the records of New Castle, Rochester and other neighboring towns to Portsmouth on the eastern coast of New Hampshire and Southern Maine. Another branch settled in the Essex co., MA area, soon migrating west and south to Middlesex co., MA & the Boston, Suffok do., MA area. Until very recently, research on this family was extremely difficult. The original emigrants settled first in New Castle, Rockingham co. and Isles of Shoals area of New Hampshire and the rugged Cape Elizabeth area of Maine. They were fishermen, probably illiterate and considered the official recording of births deaths and marriages an unimportant duty.
Savage speculated that the name probably originates via a place name in England. (Probably referring to Yeadon, a town just northwest of Leeds, next to the airport. It seems highly unlikely, but not impossible, that the family would have migrated to America from that location in England at that particular time.) He further asserted that the first Yeaton(s) probably arrived in the area after 1700, since the name is not found in Colonial Records before that date. Other speculation was that three sons of an “unknown couple” migrated form “somewhere in England” and settled as fishermen in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH. Subsequent lore maintained that, “...they did not agree, and one went to Fryeburg, Me., one to Somerworth, and one remained at Goat Island, since called Newcastle...”[5]
However, through the tireless research of Martin Hollick, this family can now be conclusively traced to one Richard Yeaton and his wife Hannah. In addition, the research of Carolyn Depp and my own research had helped to piece this family together into the form found below. Using primarily original records and sources, this research has led to the following corrected seven generation report which includes nearly every Yeaton I have yet come across.
This family lost many sons to the sea. Commercial fishing is till one of the most dangerous occupations in America and that fact is brought home when you see generation upon generation of family men with the notation “lost at sea” after their names. The Great Gale of 20 October 1770 was one of the most destructive and violent ever on the New England coast. It was a vicious Nor’Easter that started late Friday, 19 October 1770 and continued in full force on Saturday, 20 October 1770. Contemporary readers would recognize it as having the strength and ferocity of “The Perfect Storm” of October 1990. “...In the bay at Portsmouth, New Hampshire, two schooners from Rye were out fishing, and were seen about sunset Friday night, but were never again heard from. On one of the vessels were six men, John Sanders and his son John, John Yeaton, William Thomas and two others and two boys; and on the other were Samuel Sanders, Joshua Foss, Samuel Sanders, Jr., and two boys...”[6]
Surname variations include Eaton, Yaton, Yeaten, Yeating, Yeaton, Yeatten, Yeatton, Yeten, Yetten, Yetter, Yetting and Yetton. Hollick notes that “tax rates in the early part of the 18th century are broken down into two parts for New Castle: Great Island and Little Harbor. The Yeatons are consistently at Great Island.”
Please note that William Haslet Jones’ book The Yeaton Family of New England 1680-1850 (Villa Park, IL: August 1987 -- also any subsequent editions) needs serious correction and should not be used as a source.

First Generation —————————————————————————————————————————————
1. Richard1 YEATON[1,2,3,4] was born circa 1658[2] and died on the Isle of Shoals off the coast of New Hampshire circa August 1732; he was 74[2]. Richard was a Fisherman and Farmer[2] and like quite a few settlers in the New Castle/Portsmouth area, he may have been a Quaker[2].
Richard was noted as a selectman of Gosport in 1721[2,12] and was on the Rate List of New Castle, Rockingham co., NH circa 1724 as “Richard Yetton” -- a notation which was then underlined and struck out in the town records[11]. Gosport was a town on Star Island -- one of the Isles of Shoals, which is a set of nine small islands located 6 miles off the coast of New Hampshire and Maine and straddling the borders of both states. Gosport no longer exists and the Isles of Shoals are primarily occupied by tourists these days.
Richard was a good & trusted neighbor, as seen by the fact that he was frequently called upon to take inventory & appraisal of their estates. He took inventory of the estate of Samuel Matthews of the Isles of Shoals on 26 September 1720[2,10]. On 1 June 1721, he took inventory on the estate of George Blagdon[2,8]. “Richard Yeaton” was authorized to appraise the estate of James Couch on 12 August 1721[2,9]. Finally, on 1 September 1722, Richard Yeaton “of Star Island” took inventory of the estate of James Blagdon[2,7]. Administration of his own estate was granted to his sons John & Samuel[6].
Circa 1680 when Richard was 22, he married Hannah [surname not known][2], who was born circa 1660[2]. William Hazlet Jones claims that she is Hannah DAVIS, daughter of Roger DAVIS as based on the facts that a Hannah Yeaton was named in a warrant on Star Island in 1693/4 and also in the quitclaim deed of Richard Yeaton to John Davis[2,3,13]. Highly probable, but I want other proof to back up a claim by Hazlet.
They had the following children: 2 i. John 3 ii. Philip 4 iii. Joseph 5 iv. Benjamin 6 v. Samuel Generation: G8 Grandparents twice Person Numbers: 1136/1137 (via Richard) and 1156/1157 (via Benjamin)
Second Generation ————————————————————————————————————————————— Family of Richard YEATON (1) & Hannah [surname not known]
2. John2 YEATON, Sr.[3,4] (Richard1) was born circa 1682 on the Isles of Shoals off the coast of New Hampshire[2] and died in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH circa December 1756; he was 74[14]. Like his father, he was a Fisherman & Farmer[2] and was illiterate, being able to sign his name only by mark[15]. John lived primarily in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH, where he served as Constable in 1717 (as “John Yeatton” and collected the Town Rate[45]. Later, he served as Selectman in 1734/5[46]; Fence-Viewer in 1743/4[47]; Cullor Of Fish in 1743/4[47]; Selectman again in 1744/5[48] and Tythingman in 1744/5[48]. The break in his service between 1717 and 1734/5 is explained by the fact that he was living in Epsom, Merrimack co., NH during at least a part of that time span. Epsom was established on 18 May 1727 by people of Newcastle, Rye and Greenland, all in Rockingham co., NH[20] and is located roughly 5-7 miles east of Concord, Merrimack co., NH. Clearly, John was one of the New Castle residents who went to found this new town. He bought land there (Lot #51 in the second range) and was listed as a “Proprietor of Epsom” on 9 November 1732[20] -- even though he was listed as a head of household in New Castle during that same year[20,24]. His lands in Epsom were sold by several of his sons.
Page 2 Yeaton Full Register Report
His residences (although it seems that he, like many “adventurers” of the time who helped to found new towns in New England, he kept one foot in his town of origin) can be better pinpointed by Tax Records of the time. He came of age and had his own established household in New Castle by 1709 & 1709/10 when he was taxed at the Great Island part of town[32,33]. He remained in New Castle for the next 18 years or so. He was on the Town Rate list of 1713 as “John Yeating”[34]; on the Town Rate list of 1717 as “John Yetton”[35]; and on the Town Rate list in 1719[36]. He was further on the Town Tax list in 1720[2,22,37]; the Town Rate list in 1723[38] and on the School Rate list for that same year[39]. In 1723, he was on the Province Tax list as “John Yeatton”[39] and on the 1723 Tax Abatement list as “John Yetton”[40]. “John Yetton and son” were on the c. 1724 Rate List[11]. John alone was on the Town Rate list of 1725[41]; on the Province Tax list of 1726 as “John Yetton”[42]; and on the Town Rate list of 1727 as “John Yetton”[43].
At this point, it appears that he moved to Epsom, Merrimack co., NH as he is on the New Castle Abatement list in 1728[44]. At this time, he also starts dealing regularly in real estate. On 3 March 1729, he sold land on Great Island in New Castle to his brother Joseph, with his wife releasing her dower[20,26]. On 22 July 1730, he bought land from his “brother Philip”, location of land unknown[20,30], without his wife releasing her dower. On 8 January 1730/1, he sold land (location & buyer unknown)[20,27], without his wife releasing her dower. On 29 January 1735, he sold land on Great Island in New Castle (location & buyer also unknown)[20,28], without his wife releasing her dower. On 22 November 1736, he sold land (buyer unknown) that was given to him by “his brother Philip”. Not only does his wife release her dower, but a Samuel Yeaton (most likely his brother), witnessed the deed[20,29].
By 1742, he is listed in the 1742 Estate Tax List in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20]. He sold land to Richard Tapley on 8 November 1756 that was “of my late honoured father RIchard Yeaton of Isles of Shoals deceased”. His wife did not release her dower[20,23,25]. John is in the New Castle Tax records for 1749, 1753, 54, 56[20,31]. He, his son Richard & grandson Richard could possibly be the “John, Richard and Richard, Jr. Yeaton” listed all together on the Inventory list of 1782[16].
John is also named in a list of various receipts in the estate of George Wallis of New Castle, Rockingham co., NH in 1726[18] and was appointed to appraise the estate of Thomas Parsons on 28 September 1726[19]. He was also a plaintiff in a debt action in York County Maine Court Case #609734[20]. Finally, he is specifically named as a son of Richard Yeaton in the administration of his father’s estate[6,20].
John’s Will is in the New Hampshire State Papers and shows an Inventory worth £1615 pounds [!sic] and change. In these estate papers, he is called “Fisherman alias Husbandman”[2,17].
Circa 1703 when John was 21, he married Elizabeth RANDALL, daughter of James RANDALL, in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20]. Elizabeth was born circa 1682 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20] and died in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH sometime after 11 December 1765; she was 83[20,49]. As the “widow Elizabeth Yeaton” she deeded property with her son Richard Yeaton in 1757[20,50].
They had the following children: 7 i. Richard 8 ii. John 9 iii. Elizabeth 10 iv. Samuel 11 v. Mary 12 vi. Hannah 13 vii. Philip 14 viii. Joseph 15 ix. Benjamin
Generation: G7 Grandparents twice Person Numbers: 528/529 (via Richard) and 568/569 (via Benjamin)

3. Philip YEATON, Sr.[3,4,5,51] (Richard1) was born circa 1688 on one of the Isle of Shoals (most likely Star Island), New Hampshire[20], and died in Somersworth, Strafford co., NH on 11 April 1771; he was 83[20,52]. Philip was a Husbandman[20] and must have moved early to Somersworth, as he was never taxed at New Castle, Rockingham co., NH.
Philip is believed to be a Church member in Somersworth, Strafford co., NH in 1732. However, since this comes from Holbrook “1732 census”, which he used different lists to compile, this Philip may have been from the “Petition of Dover” and his nephew Philip (son of John, Sr.) may have been the Church member in Somersworth[20,24].
Most of Philip’s records are Real Estate transactions. He and John Drew bought land (location unknown) from Israel Hodgdon on 11 June 1714[20,57]. On 7 December 1727, He and Love Roberts sold land (location unknown) to John Legro and others[20,59]. He sold land (location unknown) to his “brother John” on 22 July 1730, with his wife Joanna releasing her dower[20]. He also sold land (location unknown) to Francis Drew on 22 November 1735, with Joanna releasing her dower[20,58]. He was compelled to pay a judgement (details of case unknown, opponent unknown) in 1737[20,55]. He and his wife Joanna sold land (location unknown, buyer unknown) on 29 August 1739[20,60]. Philip also sold land on 13 April 1741 (location & buyer unknown), with Joanna releasing her dower[20,54] and sold land with Love Roberts (location & buyer unknown) on 28 November 1741[20,56]. Finally, he sold land on 9 January 1759 (location & buyer unknown), with the transaction witnessed by Richard Yeaton and no wife releasing her dower[20,53].
Circa 1727 when Philip was 39, he married Joanna PRAY, daughter of Joseph PRAY & Mary GRANT[20]. Joanna was the widow of Moses ROBERTS. She was born circa 1698 in Berwick, York co., ME[20] and died after 1741; she was 43[20].
Proof that she is the mother of all of Philip Yeaton’s children and the widow of Moses Roberts is in the deed dated 13 May 1726 which reads “in consideration of ye natural love and good will I have towards Joanna Roberts widow of Moses Roberts and her heirs and divers other good causes me thereunto moving have and do freely give and bequeath to her ye said Joanna Roberts and to her and my heirs begotten of her body lawfully…”, Witnesses to this deed were her brothers John and Joseph Pray[20,61].
They had the following children: 16 i. Phebe (ca. 1724) 17 ii. Philip (ca. 1725) 18 iii. William (ca. 1728) 19 iv. Moses (ca. 1730) 20 v. Richard (19 April 1733) 21 vi. Francis (ca. 1735)
4. Joseph YEATON (Richard1) was born circa 1692 on one of the Isles of Shoals, off the coast of New Hampshire[20] and died in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH in October 1761; he was 69[20]. Joseph was a Fisherman[20] and could only sign “by mark”, since it was probably this “Joseph Yeatton” who signed by mark an affidavit of James Randall dated 2 March 1720[45].
Joseph is mentioned in three grantor deeds of Shadrach Bell and also bought land on Great Island in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH from his brother John on 3 March 1729[20,26].
Joseph was at Newcastle from 1713 to the 1750s[20]. Specifically, he is on the Town Rate list of 1713 as “Joseph Yeating”[34]; the Province Tax list of 1715[63]; the Town Rate list of 1717 as “Joseph Yetton”[35]; the Province Tax list in 1723 under “Joseph Yeatton”[39]; the Rate List c. 1724 as “Joseph Yetton”[11]; the Town Rate list of 1725 as “Joseph Yetton”[41]; the Province Tax list of 1726 as “Joseph Yeten”[42]; and the Town Rate list of 1727 as “John Yetton”[43]. After this time, it becomes difficult to sort all the Joseph Yeatons to find his specific entries. Interestingly enough, he is not on the Town Rate list in 1719[36]. Jay Mack Holbrook lists him as a head of household in 1732 in Holbrook’s “New Hampshire 1732 Census”[20,24].
Joseph’s Will is in the New Hampshire State Papers and names his widow Elizabeth and his adopted daughter Grace Bell and her husband Shadrach Bell[20,62].
Page 4 Yeaton Full Register Report
On 9 October 1758 when Joseph was 66, he married Elizabeth [surname not known], in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20,64,65]. Their marriage record reads “Joseph Yeaton & Mrs. Elizabeth Trefferren 9 Oct 1758”. She was born circa 1735[20] and died after 1761; she was at least 26[20]. I do not know which Trefethen she first married[66].
They had one child: 22 i. Grace (Adopted)
5. Benjamin YEATON. (Richard1) was born circa 1694 on one of the Isle of Shoals, off the coast of New Hampshire[20] and died sometime after 1735; he was 41[20].
Benjamin was taxed at New Castle, Rockingham co., NH from 1715 until 1723. He is on the Province Tax list of 1715[63]; the Town Rate list of 1717 as “Benjamin Yetton”[35]; the Town Rate list in 1719[36]; and the Town Tax list in 1720[20,37,67]. Benjamin is gone from the tax lists in New Castle by 1723, except for an appearance on the Abatement list of 1728[44]. Perhaps he was one of those who went northwest to found Epsom, Merrimack co., NH, since the Abatement list of 1728 seemed to affect those settlers.
Before 1719 when Benjamin was 25, he married Ann [surname not known], on Star Island (one of the Isles of Shoals), off the coast of New Hampshire[20]. Ann was born circa 1698[68].
Their daughter Hannah is possibly the Ann Yeaton baptized on 18 March 1722. If so, it is additional proof that they were married before 1722[20].
They had the following children: 23 i. Hannah (possibly Ann) (1722-) 24 ii. Sarah (1724-) 25 iii. Elizabeth (1727-) 26 iv. John (ca1730-1770) 27 v. Ann (ca1733-)
6. Samuel YEATON[3,20,69] (Richard1) was born circa 1696 on one of the Isle of Shoals, off the shore of New Hampshire[20] and died after 1743; he was 47[20]. Samuel was a Fisherman[20]. He and his wife Katharine were probably the couple baptized by The Reverend Cotton from Hampton Falls, Rockingham co., NH on 1 July 1722[20]. He was clearly named as a son of Richard Yeaton in the administration of the latter’s estate in 1732[6,20].
Samuel was on the New Castle, Rockingham co., NH Town Rate list of 1717 as “Samuel Yetton”[35]. However, he is not on the Town Rate list there in 1719[36]. By 1732, he is listed as a resident and head of household in Gosport, Star Island (one of the Isles of Shoals), off the coast of New Hampshire[20,24]. Samuel was a Gosport Selectman in 1732/3, 1736 and 1740 and was the Tythingman there in 1737[20,70].
He was sued by Henry Sherburne of Portsmouth in 1733 over debt of £18. While details of the case are not known, it is known that a chair was seized in payment. During this case, Samuel was called a “Fisherman of Gosport on Isle of Shoals”[20].
Before 1722 when Samuel was 26, he married Katherine RANDALL, daughter of Jacob RANDALL & Catherine EASTWICK, in Gosport, Star Island (one of the Isles of Shoals), off the coast of New Hampshire[20]. Katherine was born circa 1700[20] and died after 1743; she was 43[20]. She was also the first cousin of Elizabeth (Randall) Yeaton, the wife of Samuel’s brother John Yeaton.
Samuel and Katherine were possibly the parents of Richard Yeaton who married Mary Gould in Marblehead, Essex co., MA. Their son Jacob certainly married there. Also the Anderson article adds children Philip, Samuel, Jr., and Abigail and Hannah. Some of these children could be born 1722-1728 and in 1730.
Page 5 Yeaton Full Register Report
A son Philip is attributed to this couple, but is unlikely and a more likely a confusion with his nephew Philip (son of Samuel’s brother John). Another possible son is the James Yeaton of Boston, Suffolk co., MA who had a deed with William Story and Mary Yeaton for land in Londonderry, Rockingham co., NH[20].
They had the following children: 28 i. Samuel (1722-) 29 ii. Abigail (ca1724-) 30 iii. Catherine (1728-) 31 iv. Jacob (1732->1781) 32 v. Joseph (1735->1757) 33 vi. Susannah (1737-) 34 vii. Stephen (1739->1798) 35 viii. John (1742-1836) 36 ix. Richard (ca1744-<1778)
Third Generation ————————————————————————————————————————————— Family of John YEATON Sr. (2) & Elizabeth RANDALL
7. Richard3 YEATON, Sr.[3] (John2, Richard1) was born circa 1706 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20] and died in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH circa February 1788; he was 82[20]. Richard, Jr. was a Mariner and a Fisherman[20]. He, his father John & son Richard could be the “John, Richard and Richard, Jr. Yeaton” listed all together on the Inventory list of 1782[16].
Proof that John Yeaton, Sr. is Richard’s father is shown through deeds[20]. Richard, a Mariner of Newcastle, sold to Samuel Cutt all the land in Epsom, Merrimack co., NH that belonged to John Yeaton of New Castle, Rockingham co., NH and Barnabus Crucy on a deed dated 7 May 1771[20,77]. His wife, Margaret, quitclaims with him. This shows that the Richard Yeaton who married Margaret Crucy was the son of John and Elizabeth (Randall) Yeaton[20,72]. This parentage is further proved when he sold land with “his mother the Widow Elizabeth Yeaton” (location and buyer unknown)[20,73]. Finally, this Richard is noted as “Richard Jr. of Star Island alias Gosport, Fisherman”, when he sold land to “John Yeaton of New Castle, fisherman” on 23 January 1729, with no wife releasing dower[20,78].
Richard sold land on 27 October 1757 in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH (buyer unknown), with his wife Margaret releasing her dower[20,76]. He sold land “that was my late father John’s and my mother Elizabeth’s” to Thomas Bell on 7 May 1763 (location of land unknown)[20,75]. He was also a land Grantee in Tophsam (now in Vermont) on 27 September 1763[20]. Finally, Richard sold land in Rockingham co., NH to his son (which son? which land?) in July 1774[20,74]. Richard was on the Newcastle Tax lists from 1741 to 1758 and 1766-1772[20].
“Mr. Richard Yeaton of Newcastle, Fisherman” was sued by Nathaniel Adams in 1765, over a defaulted loan of £167[20]. He also signed a petition from Newcastle dated 10 Feb 1778 and was reimbursed £6 for housing soldiers. on 21 Nov 1778[20,71].
Circa 1740 when Richard was 34, he married Margaret CRUCY, daughter of Barnabas CRUCY, in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20]. Margaret was born circa 1720 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20] and died after 1774; she was 54[20]. Her brother Abraham Crucey married Margaret Marden on 25 Sep 1737 in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20,79].
They had the following children: 37 i. Richard (ca1745-<1802) 38 ii. Barnabus (ca1747->1768) 39 iii. John Crucy (1750->1827) 40 iv. Margaret (ca1755-)
Generation: G6 Grandparents Person Numbers: 284/285
Page 6 Yeaton Full Register Report
8. John YEATON, Jr.[20]3,80,4,81 (John2, Richard1) was born circa 1708 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20] and died in Somersworth, Strafford co., NH circa October 1747; he was 39[20]. Unlike most of the men in his family, John was neither fisherman nor farmer, but a Joiner[20].
John, a “Joiner of Somersworth”, sold land (location and buyer unknown) on 5 February 1746/5, with no wife releasing her dower[20,83]. He was designated the same when he sold land (location and buyer unknown) on 27 November 1734, again without the release of his wife’s dower[20]. He sold land on 22 June 1737 together with his wife Elizabeth which comprised the “homestead of our hond father Ben. Wentworth later of Dover and land now in the possession of our mother Sarah Wentworth”[20,84].
John was sued in 1736 as “John Yetting, Jr. of Somersworth, joiner” over a debt to Henry Sherburne of Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20]. Administration of his estate is in the New Hampshire State Papers. After debts, his estate amounted to a little over £150 and was allowed on 29 July 1752[20,82].
Circa 1730 when John was 22, he first married Elizabeth WENTWORTH, daughter of Benjamin WENTWORTH & Sarah ALLEN, in Somersworth, Strafford co. NH[20]. She was born on 8 June 1712 in Dover, Strafford co., NH[20] and died in Somersworth, Strafford co., NH before 1735; she was 22[20].
They had the following children: 41 i. Robert (ca1732-1807) 42 ii. Benjamin (ca1734-<1787)
Circa 1735 when John was 27, he second married Elizabeth DREW, daughter of John DREW & Elizabeth HOPLEY, in Somersworth, Strafford co. NH[20]. She was born on 2 November 1709 in Dover, Strafford co., MA[20,85] and died in Somersworth, Strafford co., NH circa 1745/6; she was 35[20].
This Elizabeth is definitely the mother of (Robert) Hopley, John Drew and Philip Drew Yeaton all of Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH. Some say that she was a “Twombly” in 1731. However, no Drew deed in 1731 has been found to confirm that. If she had married a Twombly, the only likely suspect is a William Twombly who had a wife Elizabeth in 1734[20,86]. Hollick also mentions: “Add possibly another daughter: Mary who married John Meserve in Portland[,Cumberland co., ME] in 1757[20,86].”, but, frankly, I’m not sure what this means.
They had the following children: 43 i. Hopley (ca1739-1812) 44 ii. Philip Drew (ca1741-ca1802) 45 iii. John Drew (ca1743-1785)
On 1 December 1746 when John was 38, he third married Mary [surname not known][20], in Newington, Rockingham co., NH[20]. Mary was born circa 1715[20] and died after 1761; she was 46[20]. He is called “John Yeaton of Somersworth” in this marriage record[20].
This wife is called Mrs. Mary Thompson in her marriage record of Newington, Rockingham co., NH. She is possibly the Mary Sloper who married John Thompson in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH on 31 October 1737. Regardless, she is called “Mrs. Mary Yeaton” when she later married Joseph Benson[20,79,87].
9. Elizabeth YEATON[3,4,20,88] (John2, Richard1) was born circa 1710 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20] and married Benjamin ODIORNE, son of Deacon John ODIORNE & Catherine [surname not known].
10. Samuel YEATON[3,4,20] (John2, Richard1) was born circa 1712 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20] and died after 1763; he was 51[20]. Like so many Yeaton men, Samuel was both a Sailor and a Husbandman[20].
Samuel is listed in the 1742 Estate Tax List in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20]. He bought land from Jonathan Pinkham (location unknown) and was called “of Newcastle, Sailor” on 30 March 1752[20,91]. He sold land to Israel Ham, which was originally granted to John Ham in Rochester, Strafford co., NH in 1760[20,90]. At this time, it is noted that Samuel was “of Rochester” and called “husbandman”.
Page 7 Yeaton Full Register Report
Samuel sued Thomas Bell, Esq. for £700 (reason unknown) in 1763 and was called a “yeoman of Rochester” at the time. The debt was paid in 1764[20]. He is listed on a petition dated 8 Feb 1762 from Rochester, Strafford co., NH[20,89]. It is not known whether he signed his name or by mark.
Before 1752 when Samuel was 40, he married Patience [surname not known][20]. Patience was born circa 1730[20] and died after 1760; she was 30[20].
They had the following children: 46 i. Mary (Molly) (1753-1849) 47 ii. James (1756-)
11. Mary YEATON[3,4,20,88,92] (John2, Richard1) was born in 1714 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20]. In 1759, she sold land that was “John Yeaton’s”[20].
Circa 1735 when Mary was 21, she married Nathaniel ODIORNE, son of Deacon John ODIORNE & Catherine [surname not known][20]. Nathaniel was born in 1712 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20,93] and died in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH after 1760; he was 48[20].
They had the following children (surnamed ODIORNE): i. Nathaniel ii. Sarah iii. Mary - This Mary Odiorne married Joseph LOCKE in 1765 and not her mother, who couldn’t be having children as late as 1768-1776[20].
12. Hannah YEATON[3,4,20] (John2, Richard1) was born circa 1716 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20]. She married George GORDON and they had 3 children, one of whom was Hannah (Gordon) Blazo, wife of Thomas Blazo[20].
13. Philip YEATON[3,20] (John2, Richard1) was born circa 1718 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20] and died in Cape Elizabeth (just southeast of Scarborough), Cumberland co., ME before 1766; he was 48[20]. Philip was a Mariner[20].
He is probably the Philip Yeaton of New Castle, Rockingham co., NH who served in Captain Abraham Trefithin’s [Trefethen] company on 1 March 1745[20,94]. He is also listed as a member of the militia of Cape Elizabeth in 1757[20]. He sold his interest to his father’s estate to his brother Richard on 19 June 1762, with his wife releasing her dower[20,95].
Circa 1744 when Philip was 26, he married Hannah PINKHAM[20], daughter of James PINKHAM & Elizabeth HOPLEY, in Dover, Strafford co., NH[20]. Hannah was born on 16 September 1723 in Dover, Strafford co., NH[20,85]. At the age of 1, Hannah was baptized in Dover, Strafford co., NH on 25 October 1724[20]. She died in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH on 8 July 1790; she was 66[20,96].
She was called Mrs. Hannah Fowle in her death notice at age 73. No deeds have been found naming either Hannah Sloper or Hannah Fowler [Fowle]. Unfortunately, there is no probate record under any of these names in the Rockingham County records. She was named Hannah Eaton in the 1750 will of her father. Could she possibly be the Hannah who had a son Samuel born in 1743?[20]
They had the following children: 51 i. Samuel (ca1745-1820) 52 ii. Anna (ca1750-) 53 iii. Hannah (ca1754-) 54 iv. James (1758-1824) 55 v. Jonathon (1757-1839) 56 vi. Jane (ca1762-)

14. Joseph YEATON[3,20] (John2, Richard1) was born circa 1720 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20] and died in Rye, Rockingham co., NH after 1797; he was 77[20]. He was a Husbandman[20].
According to one source, Joseph was a resident of Rye, Rockingham co., NH[99]. Another says that he lived at either Kittery or Eliot, York co., ME[100]. He sold land (location unknown) to John Berry on 26 February 1760[20,98]. He was mentioned in the 1750 will of James Pinkham and could possibly be Joseph Yeaton of Somersworth, Strafford, co., NH whose brother Philip is the likely husband of Hannah Pinkham[20]. He also witnessed the Will of Ebenezer Philbrick of Rye in 1755[20,97]. Unfortunately, it is not mentioned whether he signed his name or by mark. Joseph was brought up on charges of not having attended public worship since January in Sept 1769. He was convicted and fined £1, 15 shillings and 9 pence[20].
Joseph first married Mary PINKHAM[20] daughter of James PINKHAM & Elizabeth HOPLEY. Mary was born on 14 September 1719 in Dover, Strafford co., NH[20,85], was baptized in Dover, Strafford co., NH on 22 May 1720[20] and died in Dover, Strafford co., NH after the birth of Sarah2 in September 1750 and before her husband’s remarriage on 17 July 1751; she was 30[20]. She was called “Mary Eaton” in her father's will of 1750. The date of his will may help specify her own death date.
They had the following children: 57 i. Mary (ca1744-1831) 58 ii. Sarah1 (1748-<1750) 59 iii. Sarah2 (1750-)
On 17 July 1751 when Joseph was 31, he second married Sarah LANG[5,20], daughter of William LANG & Susannah SAVAGE, in Rye, Rockingham co., NH[5,20,101]. Sarah was born circa 1730[20]. That she is the daughter of William and Susannah (Savage) Lang is proved by his will in 1759[20,102].
They had the following children: 60 i. Joseph (1752-ca1806) 61 ii. Anne (1753-<1801) 62 iii. William (1756-1831) 63 iv. Elizabeth (1758-1833) 64 v. John (1761-1845) 65 vi. Hannah (1763-) 66 vii. Susannah (1765-1812) 67 viii. Philip (1768-) 68 ix. Deborah (ca1770-1807) 69 x. [possibly Samuel?] (1776-)
15. Benjamin3 YEATON, Sr. (John2, Richard1) was born circa 1722 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20] and died in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH before 1790; he was 68[20]. Benjamin was a Mariner and a Fisherman[20]. Benjamin was educated enough to write[20].
Benjamin’s mention in records still leaves some unanswered questions about him and his family. We do know that he was taxed at New Castle, Rockingham co., NH from 1747 to 1784. Specifically, he is in the New Castle tax records during 1749, 1753, 1754, 1756, 1769 (with two sons), 1770-1, 1774 and 1779 (with one son). He was taxed at New Castle, Rockingham co., NH in 1763 for £23, 6 shillings[31] and was a land grantee of Tophsam (now in Vermont) on 27 September 1763[20].
This Benjamin Yeaton could not be the husband of Mary Downing. No wife quitclaims her dower on the 1771 deed -- which indicates that he was single or widowed. However, according to Thales, the other Benjamin Yeaton was in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH and having children as late as 1770[20].
Page 9 Yeaton Full Register Report
This Benjamin is probably the Benjamin Yeaton stationed at Ft. William and Mary in 1747, as listed in the New Hampshire State Papers 18:336[20]. He was sued over a debt in 1761 as “Benjamin of Newcastle, fisherman”. The money in question was owed to a store and records mention that a James Yeaton paid the sum[20]. He is also definitely the “Benjamin Yeaton, Mariner of Newcastle” who sold land on 7 June 1771 to Daniel Warner of Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH. This comprised 9 acres of land which was his share of the 51st lot in Epsom, Merrimack co., NH originally under the name of “John Yeaton of Newcastle” (Benjamin’s grandfather). The deed was recorded on 19 September 1771[20,130].
Circa 1750 when Benjamin was 28, he married Martha MACE[20], in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20]. Martha was born circa 1730 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20] and died in Eastport, Washington co., ME in February 1828; she was 98[20,104]. She must be the Martha Yeaton listed as a head of household in the 1790 census[20].
They had the following children: 70 i. Benjamin (ca1751-1816) 71 ii. James (ca1753-<1790) 72 iii. Andrew Mace (ca1755-ca1799) 73 iv. William (1761-)
Generation: G6 Grandparents Person Numbers: 264/265
Family of Philip YEATON Sr. (3) & Joanna PRAY
16. Phebe YEATON. (Philip2, Richard1) was born circa 1724 in Dover, Strafford co., NH[20]. At the age of 4, Phebe was baptized in Dover, Strafford co., NH on 7 April 1728[20,105]. Was she the wife of William Chadbourne and then William Abbott both of Berwick, York co., ME[20]?
17. Philip YEATON, Jr.[3,20106] (Philip2, Richard1) was born circa 1725 in Dover, Strafford co., NH[20]. At the age of 3, Philip was baptized in Dover, Strafford co., NH on 7 April 1728[20,105] and died in Berwick, York co., ME on 29 March 1817; he was 92[20]. Philip was a Revolutionary War pensioner and was probably the “Phillips Yetton” who was in Captain Tilton’s Company in 1761[20,107]
On 15 February 1749/50 when Philip was 24, he married Dorcas SMITH[20], daughter of John SMITH & Elizabeth HEARD, in Berwick, York co., ME[20]. Dorcas was born on 15 July 1732 in Berwick, York co., ME[20] and died after 1800; she was 67[20].
They had the following children: 74 i. John (ca1752-ca1780) 75 ii. Joanna (1753-1826) 76 iii. Richard (ca1756-1811) 77 iv. Philip (ca1758-1795) 78 v. Elizabeth (1762-<1855) 79 vi. Experience (1764-1828) 80 vii. Mary (Molly) (1766-1853) 81 viii. Dorcas (1768-1826) 82 ix. Phineas (1770-) 83 x. Sarah (1773-1847) 84 xi. Jacob (1776-)
18. William YEATON. (Philip2, Richard1) was born circa 1728 in Dover, Strafford co., NH[20], was baptized in Dover, Strafford co., NH on 7 April 1728[20,105] and died in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH on 16 April 1799; he was 71[20,108,109,110]. William was a Blockmaker, making pulleys for ships in the area[20]. William was sued by John Sullivan for £8 on 22 August 1768 and was called a “blockmaker of Portsmouth” [20].
Page 10 Yeaton Full Register Report
William speculated a great deal in frontier New Hampshire real estate. Most of the following transactions involved land in the west and northwest parts of New Hampshire, bordering Vermont and in the White Mountains. One wonders how a blockmaker from Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH on the seacoast would have had the wherewithal to do so. How did he acquire this land to sell, anyway?
He first sold land in Saville (now Sunpee), Sullivan co., NH on 9 November 1768 (buyer unknown)[20,114]. He next sold land in Protectworth (which was incorporated as Springfield in 1794), Sullivan co., NH on 17 March 1769, along with his cousin Benjamin (son of John Yeaton, Sr.)[20,115]. On 14 October 1771, he received a judgement of land (location and circumstances unknown)[20,111]. He then sold land in Dorchester, Grafton co., NH on 4 May 1772[20,112]. He also sold land in Bretton Woods, Grafton co, NH on 16 March 1772[20,113]. Finally he sold land (location and buyer unknown) on 5 August 1791 together with his wife Elizabeth[20,111].
On 8 December 1763 when William was 35, he married Elizabeth SPRAGUE, in Charlestown, Suffolk co., MA[20,116,117]. Elizabeth was born circa 1745 in Charlestown, Suffolk co., MA[20] and died in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH on 23 October 1821; she was 76[20,118].
They had the following children: 85 i. William (1764-) 86 ii. Elizabeth (1767->1806) 87 iii. Benjamin (1770-1827) 88 iv. Richard Sprague (1774-1808) 89 v. Joseph Warren (1776-1806) 90 vi. John (1778-1806) 91 vii. Joshua (1785-1834)
19. Lt. Moses YEATON, Gent.[3,20,119] (Philip2, Richard1) was born circa 1730 in Dover, Strafford co., NH[20] and died in Somersworth, Strafford co., NH circa November 1783; he was 53[20]. Moses was a Trader and Innholder[20]. Seen by his title, he also served in the military. He was noted as being age 18 in 1748 and from Somersworth, Strafford co., NH in the militia under one Job Clement[20,123].
Moses was authorized on 21 March 1763 to sell lands in the estate of Silvanus Nock of Somerswoth, Strafford co., NH[20,124] and bond was granted to him as a surety on the estate of John Saxon of Crown Point, Essex co., NY[20,120]. Bond was also granted to him as a surety on the estate of Otis Varney of Somerswoth, Strafford co., NH[20,121]. Moses was sued by John Mason on 7 June 1762 for £170 that he defaulted on a debt. The case took place in York Co., ME[20]. Moses’ estate was administrated in Strafford Co. Probate on 12 November 1783[20,122].
Circa 1752 when Moses was 22, he married Alice LEGRO[20], daughter of John LEGRO, in Somersworth, Strafford co., NH[20]. Alice was born circa 1730[20] and died in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH in January 1801; she was 71[20,125]. The fact that she is the daughter of John Legro is shown by a deed dated 17 March 1770 where Rachel Legro, Mary Legro and Alice Yeaton all quitclaim to John Legro the land of John Legro late of Somersworth, Strafford co., NH which he had bought of Moses Carr. Witnesses to the deed were Francis Yeaton and Benjamin Goodrige. The deed was recorded on 22 March 1770[20,126].
This couple is quite probably the parents of the Alice Yeaton, born circa 1760, who married Eliphalet Pray in Berwick, York co., ME and not Moses’ brother Philip, as Anderson suggests[20]. One of their sons had a daughter named Alice Yeaton who died at Somersworth, Strafford co., NH on 17 July 1803 at age 15 as reported in the New Hampshire Gazette.
They had the following children: 92 i. Moses (1753-1842) 93 ii. Francis (1756-) 94 iii. Samuel (1758->1790) 95 iv. Alice (ca1760-1843) 96 v. Nahum (1762-ca1834) 97 vi. Theodore (1764-1856) 98 vii. Ebeneezer (1768-1847)

20. Richard YEATON[3,20,119] (Philip2, Richard1) was born on 19 April 1733 in Dover, Strafford co., NH[20] and died as a prisoner-of-war in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada in September 1777; he was 44[20,127]. His obituary states: “Yaton, Richard captured at sea, prisoner of war, at Halifax, N.S. starvation, July-Sept. 1777”[20,127]. This “Richard from Somersworth” was noted as a soldier in the Revolutionary War during 1775-6[20,128].
On 5 February 1759 when Richard was 25, he married Experience PRAY[20], daughter of John PRAY & Experience PRAY, in Berwick, York co., ME[20]. She was born on 3 June 1737 in Berwick, York co., ME[20]. Experience the younger and her husband Richard were first cousins via the Pray family[20]. Experience was left with 8 children under the age of 18 after Richard’s death.
They had the following children: 99 i. John (1760-1838) 100 ii. Paul (1762-1856) 101 iii. Mary Jane (1764-1835) 102 iv. Andrew (1766-) 103 v. Richard (1768-1865) 104 vi. Elizabeth (1770-) 105 vii. Philip (1772-1870) 106 viii. Joshua (1774-1857)
21. Francis YEATON. (Philip2, Richard1) was born circa 1735 in Dover, Strafford co., NH[20] and died in Somersworth, Strafford co., NH circa December 1804; he was 69[20]. He was authorized on 4 May 1772 to divide estate of Francis Roberts of Somersworth, Strafford co., NH[20,129]. Francis left no children.
Family of Joseph YEATON (4) & Elizabeth [surname not known]
22. Grace YEATON[130] (Joseph2, Richard1) was their adopted daughter and married Shadrach BELL[20].
Family of Benjamin YEATON (5) & Ann [surname not known]
23. Hannah (possibly Ann) YEATON. (Benjamin2, Richard1) was born in 1722 in Gosport, Star Island (one of the Isles of Shoals), off the coast of NH[20].
24. Sarah YEATON. (Benjamin2, Richard1) was born in August 1724 in Gosport, Star Island (one of the Isles of Shoals), off the coast of NH[20] and was baptized there on 16 August 1724[20].
25. Elizabeth YEATON. (Benjamin2, Richard1) was born in September 1727 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20] and was baptized there on 1 October 1727[20]. Hollick says that she is called “Mrs. Betty Yeaton” in the New Castle Town Records[20,131], but I don’t think it is this Elizabeth who is so called.
According to Hollick, on 24 June 1757 when Elizabeth was 29, she married John BERRY, Sr.[20], son of Nehemiah BERRY & Sarah RAND, in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20,65,132]. Their marriage record reads “Mr. John Berry & Mrs. Betty Yeaton 25 June 1757”. John was born on 18 March 1736 in Rye, Rockingham co., NH[20].
I’m not sure about this marriage. Either she first married a Yeaton or John Berry, Sr. married another Yeaton widow named Elizabeth and called Betty. The New Castle records are deficient in some areas but are pretty good about noting remarrying widows as such.
They had the following children (surnamed BERRY): i. John was born in February 1759 in Rye, Rockingham co., NH[20]. He married Susanna McNEIL of Alton, Belknap co., NH[20]. ii. Thomas was born circa 1761 in Rye, Rockingham co., NH[20].
Page 12 Yeaton Full Register Report
26. John YEATON[20,133] (Benjamin2, Richard1) was born circa 1730[20] and died in at sea during the Great October Gale of 1770; he was 40[20,127,134,135].
The Great Gale of 20 October 1770 was one of the most destructive and violent ever on the New England coast. It was a vicious Nor’Easter which started late Friday, 19 October 1770 and continued in full force on Saturday, 20 October 1770. Contemporary readers would recognize it as having the strength and ferocity of “The Perfect Storm” of October 1990. “...In the bay at Portsmouth, New Hampshire, two schooners from Rye were out fishing, and were seen about sunset Friday night, but were never again heard from. On one of the vessels were six men, John Sanders and his son John, John Yeaton, William Thomas and two others and two boys; and on the other were Samuel Sanders, Joshua Foss, Samuel Sanders, Jr., and two boys...” [136]
Esther (Saunders) Yeaton lost her father, John; her brother, John, Jr.; her uncle, Samuel; her nephew, Samuel, Jr. and her husband, John Yeaton in this storm. In addition, I can only imagine that the “two others and two boys...” who rounded out the crew of John Saunders’ fishing schooner were also related.
On 24 August 1759 when John was 29, he married Esther SAUNDERS[20,133], daughter of John SAUNDERS & Mary BERRY, in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[5,20,101]. Esther was born on 17 September 1741 in Rye, Rockingham co., NH[20] and died after 1780; she was 38[20]. Esther was baptized on the Isles of Shoals, Rockingham co., NH on 17 September 1741[20].
They had the following children: 109 i. John (1760-1844) 110 ii. Mary1 (1762-ca1763) 111 iii. Mary2 (1764-) 112 iv. Elizabeth (1766-) 113 v. Esther (1769-1808) 114 vi. [possibly Merribah] 115 vii. [possibly Polly]
27. Ann YEATON. (Benjamin2, Richard1) was born circa 1733[20]. This is probably the Anne Yeaton of Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH who had a bastard child in May 1760 (Court Case #26222). If so, she may well be the mother of George Yeaton who was born in 1760 (and died in 1845 age 85 according to his gravestone in Wolfeboro, Carroll co., NH). In his revolutionary war pension he states he was born on 17 Apr 1760 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH. Ann was accused of having a child on or about May 1760. George is mentioned as being age 17 during his service in Nathan Hale’s Battery (no date given)[20,137].
Family of Samuel YEATON (6) & Katherine RANDALL
28. Samuel YEATON[20] (Samuel2, Richard1) was born in July 1722 in Gosport, Star Island (one of the Isles of Shoals), off the coast of NH[20] and was baptized there on 22 July 1722[20]. On 6 April 1751 when Samuel was 28, he married Mary SAWYER[20,138,139], in Falmouth, Cumberland co., ME[20,140]. Mary was born on 8 September 1731 in Falmouth, Cumberland co., ME[20].
29. Abigail YEATON. (Samuel2, Richard1) was born circa 1724[20].
30. Catherine YEATON. (Samuel2, Richard1) was born in August 1728 in Gosport, Star Island (one of the Isles of Shoals), off the coast of NH[20] and was baptized there on 13 August 1728[20]. On 1 March 1749 when Catherine was 20, she married John WEBSTER[20], on one of the Isles of Shoals, off the coast of NH[20].
Page 13 Yeaton Full Register Report
31. Jacob YEATON.20 (Samuel2, Richard1) was born in October 1732 in Gosport, Star Island (one of the Isles of Shoals), off the coast of NH[20] and was baptized there on 15 October 1732[20]. Jacob died after 1781; he was 48[20]. He was a Ropemaker[20]. Jacob served in the American Revolution and after the War both settled in Marblehead, Essex co., MA & changed his name to “Jacob Eaton”[20].
“I Jacob Yeatton of Marblehead, ropemaker, for 200 pounds from Jeremiah Lee of Marblehead, esquire, my mansion house and land in Marblehead being the same I purchased of Desire Collyer administratrix of the estate of Isaac Collyer late of said Marblehead, shoreman, deceased.” This deed was signed on 25 November 1768 by both Jacob and Elizabeth Yeatten. Witnesses were Stephan Sewall and Samuel Frevett (?). The deed was recorded on 9 December 1768[20]. [Essex Deeds 126:44]
On 5 February 1756 when Jacob was 23, he married Elizabeth COLLIER[20], in Marblehead, Essex co., MA[20,141]. His marriage record is in the Marblehead, Essex co., MA vital records under “Yeaten, Jacob”.
They had the following children: 116 i. Jacob (1761-) 117 ii. Elizabeth or Betsey (1765-1809)
32. Joseph YEATON. (Samuel2, Richard1) was born in May 1735 in Gosport, Star Island (one of the Isles of Shoals), off the coast of NH[20] and was baptized there on 4 May 1735[20]. Joseph died after 1757; he was 21[20]. Joseph is listed in the 1757 militia list of Cape Elizabeth (just southeast of Scarborough), Cumberland co., ME[20].
33. Susannah YEATON[20,142] (Samuel2, Richard1) was born in July 1737 in Gosport, Star Island (one of the Isles of Shoals), off the coast of NH[20] and was baptized there on 17 July 1737[20]. On 12 November 1756 when Susannah was 19, she married Ebeneezer SAWYER[138], in Falmouth, Cumberland co., ME[20,143].
34. Stephen YEATON[20,142] (Samuel2, Richard1) was born in September 1739 in Gosport, Star Island (one of the Isles of Shoals), off the coast of NH[20] and was baptized there on 30 September 1739[20]. Stephen died in Poland, Androscoggin co., ME after 1798; he was 58[20]. Note that Mary McMinn gives his death date as 1834 -- while this is possible, it is not plausible. Stephen is also listed in the Cape Elizabeth (just southeast of Scarborough), Cumberland co., ME militia in 1757[20].
On 20 August 1761 when Stephen was 21, he married Mary SAWYER[138], in Falmouth, Cumberland co., ME[20]. Mary was born on 1 April 1741 in Cape Elizabeth (just southeast of Scarborough), Cumberland co., ME[20] and died in Minot, Androscoggin co., ME on 1 March 1810; she was 68[20,144].
They had the following children: 118 i. Stephen (1762-) 119 ii. Catherine (1764-) 120 iii. Samuel (1766-1816) 121 iv. Mary (1768-) 122 v. Joseph (1774-1836) 123 vi. Susanna (1775-1851) 124 vii. Rachel (1777-1867) 125 viii. James (1781-1852)
35. John YEATON[20] (Samuel2, Richard1) was born in February 1742 in Gosport, Star Island (one of the Isles of Shoals), off the coast of NH[20] and was baptized there on 14 February 1742[20]. John died in Steuben, Washington co., ME on 18 October 1836; he was 94[20]. John’s service in the American Revolution is borne out by the fact that he was a Revolutionary War Pensioner[20].
On 26 December 1765 when John was 23, he married Sarah DYER[20], daughter of Henry DYER & Sarah RIDLEY, in Cape Elizabeth (just southeast of Scarborough), Cumberland co., ME[20,143]. Sarah was born circa 1742 in Cape Elizabeth (just southeast of Scarborough), Cumberland co., ME[20].

On 28 February 1771 when Richard was 27, he married Margaret GOULD[20], in Marblehead, Essex co., MA[20,141]. Their marriage record in the vital records of Marblehead, Essex co., MA reads “Yetton, Richard, and Mary Gould, Feb. 28, 1771.” [int. also recorded]. Margaret was born circa 1745[20] and died after 1791; she was 46[20].
They had the following children: 134 i. Margaret Hannah (1771-1807) 135 ii. Sarah Gould (1774-)
Fourth Generation ————————————————————————————————————————————— Family of Richard YEATON Sr. (7) & Margaret CRUCY
37. Richard YEATON, Jr.[20] (Richard3, John2, Richard1) was born circa 1745 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20] and died before 1802; he was 57[20]. Richard was a Fisherman and Mariner[20]. He, his father Richard & grandfather John could be the “John, Richard and Richard, Jr. Yeaton” listed all together on the Inventory list of 1782[16]. His is possibly the “Estate of Richard Yeaton” noted on the Tax list of 1803[145]; Inventory of 1803[146] and Tax of 1804[147]. Richard Yeaton, Jr. fined for not serving as Constable in 1770[148].
Circa 1775 when Richard was 30, he married Grace BELL[20]. She was born circa 1755[20] and died in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH on 10 August 1802; she was 47[20,149,150]. She is quite possibly the Grace Yeaton who was granted a retailer’s license on 26 Dec 1801[151].
They had the following children: 136 i. Barnabus Crucy (1777-1857) 137 ii. Elizabeth 138 iii. Margaret 139 iv. Abigail 140 v. Grace Bell 141 vi. Nancy 142 vii. Comfort Marshall
38. Barnabus YEATON[20] (Richard3, John2, Richard1) was born circa 1747 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20] and died there after 1768; he was 21[20]. Barnabus was on the Highway tax list of 1771, Town Tax List of 1772 and Province Tax list of 1772[152]. He was also on the Province Tax list of 1774[153]; the Town Tax List of 1774[154]; and the State Tax list of 1776[155]. All lists were from New Castle, Rockingham co., NH.

39. John Crucy4 YEATON[20,156] (Richard3, John2, Richard1) was born in 1750 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[5,20] and died after 1827; he was 77[20]. Note that Parsons claims John Crucy was born in 1762, which seems to be estimated from New Castle tax data. However, 1750 is more plausible with an estimated marriage date of 1772 and estimated birth of his eldest child in 1773.
John Crucy lived his life in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[157]. This is borne out by Tax lists in that town from 1782 through 1806: he was on the Town Tax list in 1782158]; the Town Tax list in 1783[159]; the Town Tax list of 1784[160]; the State Tax of 1785[161]; the State Tax of 1787[162]; the Town tax of 1787[163]; the Parish Tax of 1788[164]; the Tax of 1791[165]; the Town Tax of 1792 (with 2 polls)[166]; the Tax of 1793[167]; the Inventory taken circa 1793 (2 polls)[168]; the Tax list of 1794[169]; the Town Tax of 1796[170]; the Tax of 1797[171]; the Tax of 1800[172]; the Tax of 1803[145]; the Inventory taken in 1803 (2 polls)[146]; the Tax of 1804[147]; the Tax of 1806[173]; and the Tax list of 1806[174].
Circa 1772 when John Crucy was 22, he married Ruth GRANT[20,156], in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20,133,157]. Ruth was born circa 1750[20] and died after 1827; she was 77[20].
They had the following children: 143 i. Richard 144 ii. Dorothy or Dolly 145 iii. Tamah 146 iv. Isaac S. 147 v. William 148 vi. Margaret or Peggy 149 vii. John 150 viii. Mehitable or Hitty 151 ix. Ruth Amazeen 152 x. Ebeneezer or Eben 153 xi. Hopley
Generation: G5 Grandparents Person Numbers: 142/143
40. Margaret YEATON. (Richard3, John2, Richard1) was born circa 1755[20]. In November 1785 when Margaret was 30, she married George BELL Jr., in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20,175].
Family of John YEATON Jr. (8) & Elizabeth WENTWORTH
41. Robert YEATON, Sr.[3,80] (John3-2, Richard1) was born circa 1732 in Somersworth, Strafford co., NH[20] and died in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH in May 1807; he was 75[20,176]. On his death notice, he is referred to as “Robert, Sr.” and his age is given as 75. He was a Yeoman and a Joiner[20]. Robert and his brother Benjamin sold land in Rochester, Strafford co., NH by deed (location, date and buyer unknown)[20,177].
On 22 December 1763 when Robert was 31, he married Eleanor STONEMAN[20], daughter of John STONEMAN & Mary BANFIELD, in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20,178]. Eleanor was born circa 1740[20] and died after 1775; she was 35[20]. The fact that she is the daughter of John and Mary (Banfield) Stoneman is proven by the 1770 will of Eleanor’s mother, Mary Stoneman, which names her son-in-law “Robert Yeaton, joiner of Portsmouth” and wife “Alice”[20,179].
They had the following children: 154 i. Benjamin (1766-1832) 155 ii. Robert (1770-1846) 156 iii. Sarah (ca1772->1807)

42. Benjamin YEATON[3,20,180] (John3-2, Richard1) was born circa circa 1734 in Somersworth, Strafford co., NH[20] and died in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH before 1787; he was 53[20]. Benjamin was a Housewright and Joiner[20]. Benjamin was paid 32s. and 6d. for making a table for the council chamber with covering on 1 February 1765[20,182].
He and his brother Robert sold land in Rochester, Strafford co., NH by deed (location, buyer & year unknown). The parcel was land that had belonged to their grandfather Benjamin Wentworth. Benjamin sold land in Protectworth (which was incorporated as Springfield in 1794), Sullivan co., NH with his cousin “William Yeaton, Blockmaker”, of Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH on 17 March 1769; and with no wife releasing her dower[20,115]. He also sold land in Bath, Sagadahoc co., ME on 25 December 1769; again, with no wife releasing dower[20,181]. Finally, they are probably the same Benjamin and Mary who quitclaim in the York County Deeds (details unknown) on 1792 to Ezekiel Twombly[20].
On 25 January 1755 when Benjamin was 21, he first married Mary MENDUM[20], in Kittery, York co., ME[20,183]. Mary was born on 20 March 1736 in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20,184] and died after 1773; she was 36[20]. Her father’s will of 1762/3 clearly names her as “Mary, wife of William [sic] Yeaton”. Obviously this is a mistake. She and Benjamin filed intentions and marriage records under the name Benjamin and then sell land in the 1790s together[20].
They had the following children: 157 i. Benjamin (1757-) 158 ii. Adington Davenport (1761-) 159 iii. Sarah (1764->1823) 160 iv. Jonathan (1767-1848) 161 v. Thales Greenwood (1770-1821) 162 vi. Mary (1772-)
Benjamin second married Mary ODIORNE[20], daughter of Ebeneezer ODIORNE & Catherine SHERBURNE. Mary was born circa 1735[20] and died after 1787; she was 52[20]. Hollick notes that one should “See Strafford Deeds 10:309 for this family info”[20,185].
Family of John YEATON Jr. (8) & Elizabeth DREW
43. Hopley YEATON[20] (John3-2, Richard1) was born circa 1739[20] and died in Lubec, Washington co., ME on 12 May 1812; he was 73[20,186]. His obituary is published in the New Hampshire Gazette of 9 June 1812. Hopley was a Mariner and Ship’s Master[20].
On 15 November 1766 when Hopley was 27, he first married Comfort MARSHALL[20], daughter of George MARSHALL & Thankful WEEKS, in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20,187]. Comfort was born circa 1745 in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20] and died in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH on 29 June 1788; she was 43[20,188].
They had the following children: 163 i. John (1769-1791) 164 ii. Mary (1772-1852) 165 iii. Hopley1 (1775-1776) 166 iv. Hopely2 (1777-1827) 167 v. George (1779-1803) 168 vi. Samuel1 (1782-1783) 169 vii. Samuel2 (1784-1849)
On 26 September 1789 when Hopley was 50, he second married Elizabeth GERRISH[20], in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20,189].

On 10 November 1767 when Philip Drew was 26, he married Mary SHERIFF[20], in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20,187]. Mary was born circa 1745[20]. She could be the Mary Yeaton who died of palsy in February of 1795 at age 57; in which case her birth year would be circa 1738[20].
They had the following children: 170 i. [not known child1] (1785-1785) 171 ii. [not known child2] (-1796) 172 iii. Julia Ann (1788-)
45. Captain John Drew YEATON.20 (John3-2, Richard1) was born circa 1743[20] and died in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH on 22 April 1785; he was 42[20]. As evidenced by his title, John Drew was also a Mariner[20].
On 10 May 1775 when John Drew was 32, he married Mary FITZGERALD[20], in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20,187]. Mary was born in 1749[20] and died in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH in January 1831; she was 82[20,149, 191]. She could possibly be the Mary Yeaton who was noted as living alone in the 1790 and 1800 censuses in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20]. She sold land which had belonged to her late husband (location, dates and buyers unknown)[192,193]. The couple had no children[20].

Mary died in Rochester, Strafford co., NH on 1 June 1849; she was 95[20,195]. Stackpole mistakenly identifies her as Abigail Yeaton. However Strafford Deeds in 1829 clearly show she was Mary (Yeaton) (Meserve) Wingate[20,190].
Circa 1775 when Mary was 21, she first married Stephen MESERVE, Sr.[20,81], son of Clement MESERVE (son of Daniel and grandson of Clement & Abigail HAM[20]. Stephen was born circa 1750 in Durham, Strafford co., NH[20] and died in Rochester, Strafford co., NH circa 1795; he was 45[20].
A child named Samuel is also mentioned in the guardianships for the minor children in 1795 (Betsey, Stephen, John, Hopley and Samuel) and two more Polly and Abigail were minors but upwards of 14 years old[20].
They had the following children (surnamed MESERVE): i. John ii. Stephen iii. Hopley iv. Comfort v. Abigail vi. Betty
On 2 January 1794 when Mary was 40, she second married Enoch WINGATE[20], in Rochester, Strafford co., NH[20]. Enoch was born on 13 April 1753[20]. and died in Milton, Strafford co., NH in August 1828; he was 75[20,197].

On 1 September 1791 when James was 33, he married Lucy WILSON[20], in Falmouth, Cumberland co., ME[20]. Lucy was born circa 1766[202] and died in New Gloucester, Cumberland co., ME on 28 October 1841; she was 75[202].

His death notices in the New Hampshire Gazette on 16 April and 7 May 1816, note that Benjamin drowned in Portsmouth harbor at age 65[20,225]. He is probably the Benjamin Yeaton who served in the Revolution as a private in Captain Titus Salter’s Company from 1775-1777[20]. Benjamin lived in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH where he is listed as a head of household in the 1790 census.

Barnabus Crucy lived in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH as evidenced by the tax records of the town: he was on the Tax list of 1800[172]; the Tax list of 1803[145]; the Inventory list of 1803[146]; the Tax list of 1804[147]; the Tax list of 1806[174] and the other Tax list of 1806[173]. “Barnabus Yeaton” was paid on 10 August 1805 to appraise the estate of his father Richard Yeaton, deceased[190].

Family of John Crucy YEATON (39) & Ruth GRANT
143. Richard YEATON[20] (John Crucy4, Richard3, John2, Richard1) was born circa 1773 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20] and died there in 1823; he was 50[20]. He is possibly the Richard Yeaton listed on the July 1813 Military Roll of men aged 16-40[272]. On 15 September 1798 when Richard was 25, he married Abigail GAUDY or GOUDY, in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20,288,289]. Their marriage reads “Richard Yeaton Jr. & Abigail Goudy int. 15 Sep 1798 marr. 13 Oct 1798”.
144. Dorothy or Dolly5 YEATON[20] (John Crucy4, Richard3, John2, Richard1) was born on 13 October 1775 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20,156,157] and died there on 5 November 1858; she was 83[20,156,157]. Haskins and Hollick say that her death date is 11 October 1858 at age 83.
In 1798 when Dorothy or Dolly was 22, she married Benjamin ODIORNE, son of Benjamin ODIORNE & Mary BECK, in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20,157,290]. Benjamin was born in November 1777 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[156,157] and died in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH on 23 November 1823; he was 46[93,156,157]. “...In 1791 he and five others signed a petition to have their lands in New Castle, south of Little Harbor, attached to the town of Rye. The petition was granted on December 22, 1791...”[156].
They had the following children (surnamed ODIORNE): i. Abigail B. ii. Benjamin iii. John Yeaton
Generation: G4 Grandparents Person Numbers: 70/71
145. Tamah YEATON (John Crucy4, Richard3, John2, Richard1) was born circa 1777[20] and married Simon SMITH[20,288].
146. Isaac S. YEATON[20,291] (John Crucy4, Richard3, John2, Richard1) was born on 10 June 1781 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20,285] and died there on 4 October 1857; he was 76[20,292]. He is definitely the Issac S. Yeaton listed on the July 1813 Military Roll of men in New Castle aged 16-40[272]. He is also on the New Castle Tax list of 1803[145]; the Inventory list of 1803[146]; the Tax list of 1804[147]; the Tax list of 1806[293] and the other Tax list of 1806[174].
Page 31 Yeaton Full Register Report
On 27 October 1805 when Isaac S. was 24, he first married Jane MITCHELL[285,288], in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[294]. Jane was born on 17 October 1784 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[285].
They had the following children: 307 i. William W. (1809-) 308 ii. John R. (1811-) 309 iii. Mary Jane (1813-) 310 iv. Catherine B. (1816-) 311 v. Martha Ann (1826-)
According to Hollick, Isaac S. second married Abigail BELL[20].
147. William YEATON[20] (John Crucy4, Richard3, John2, Richard1) was born circa 1782[20] and was lost at sea circa 1799; he was 17[288].
148. Margaret or Peggy YEATON[20] (John Crucy4, Richard3, John2, Richard1) was born circa 1784[20]. She married John MULLIN or MULLEN[20,288].
149. John YEATON, Jr.[157] (John Crucy4, Richard3, John2, Richard1) was born circa 1785[157]. He was lost at sea[157,288]. According to Parsons, John is the one who married Abigail BELL[288]. Hollick does not acknowledge this child as a son of John Crucy Yeaton and Ruth Grant. Evidence of him is only from Parsons[20].
150. Mehitable or Hitty YEATON[20] (John Crucy4, Richard3, John2, Richard1) was born circa 1786[20]. She married David GARDINER[20,288].
151. Ruth Amazeen YEATON[20] (John Crucy4, Richard3, John2, Richard1) was born on 19 June 1787 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[295,296]. On 25 April 1799 when Ruth Amazeen was 11, she first married John KINNEAR, Jr.[20,288], in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[297]. Their marriage record there reads “John Kinnear Jr. & Ruth Yeaton int. 14 April 1799 (3:212) marr. 25 Apr 1799”. Parsons says that his name was John CONNOR, but their marriage record proves him wrong.
On 26 February 1805 when Ruth Amazeen was 17, she second married George B. ODIORNE[20,288], in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20]. On 3 March 1808 when Ruth Amazeen was 20, she third married Joseph BUTTERFIELD, in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[298]. Their Intention was filed on 21 February 1808[299]. (I could be wrong about this marriage...but I don’t think so...)
152. Ebeneezer or Eben YEATON[20] (John Crucy4, Richard3, John2, Richard1) was born circa 1792[20] and lost at sea before 1865; he was 73[20,288]. Eben was a Mariner[20]. He was commonly referred to as “Eben” in records[300]. Eben was on the 1827 list of the Founders of the Congregational Society in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[215], his lifelong residence.
On 5 November 1829 when Ebeneezer or Eben was 37, he married Hepsibah MELLOON[20], daughter of Abraham M. MELOON, SR. and Elizabeth MARDEN, in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20,301,302] as “Mr. Eben Yeaton & Mrs. Hypsabeth Bell 5 Nov 1829”. Hepsibah or Hipsabeth[300] was born circa 1798[20] and died in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH on 4 June 1865; she was 67[20,203].
Her true parentage was recently unraveled by the 2002 research of Mike Meloon forwarded to me by Carolyn Depp. Eben’s wife has been called “Hepsibah Bell” (as a maiden name) and the daughter of William A. MELOON (who was actually her brother). Details of Meloon’s research and proof of her parentage follow:
Page 32 Yeaton Full Register Report
“…Fourthly, the offending document, a list of deaths registered in the Town of New Castle for the year ending March 31, 1866 which includes: "#2, June 9th (1865), Hepsebeth Yeaton, (age) 67, (born) New Castle, white, married, (parents born) New Castle, (father) William A. Meloon, (died of) Paralysis".
Other contemporary records in the office have been annotated that the listing of William A. Meloon as the father of these two women is apparently in error. William Amazeen Meloon was their brother and that the true parent was Abraham M. Meloon, 7 Dec 1760-abt. 1815, mar. 17 Mar. 1783 in New Castle, NH to Elizabeth Marden, 1758-?. This contention is substantiated by the following: Ivan Leighton Meloon, 7 Jun 1862-9 Nov 1949, was the grandnephew of Hepsibah and Elizabeth (he was my 1st cousin 3 times removed). Ivan lived in New Castle much of his life and spent a great deal of time extracting information from town records, mostly on the history of deeds and properties in the town, eventually filling a dozen notebooks. Included in these (V4, p23A) is an extract from a deed which listed the heirs of Abraham Meloon and included: (1) William A. Meloon, (2) Allen Porter and Margaret (Meloon) his wife, (3) Eliz. (Meloon) Trefethen, (4) Meshach Bell & Hipsabeth (Meloon) his wife, and (5) Abraham Meloon Jr. and Paulina his wife. It would appear to me that the recorder of the deaths on the fourth document above became confused and listed William as the father of Hepsibeth and Elizabeth. I would note that William was born in 1795, died in 1842 and had 10 children. His sisters died in 1865 or more than 20 years after his death. With all those children floating around the town and his death a mere memory it might have been easy to attribute him to the two sisters who died in one year despite their ages…”
They had the following children: 312 i. Sylvester (1830-) 313 ii. Adaline (1835-) 314 iii. Eben (1839-) 315 iv. Williard M. (1842-)
153. Hopley YEATON (John Crucy4, Richard3, John2, Richard1) was born on 20 January 1792[20,288] and died in Rye, Rockingham co., NH on 10 January 1875; he was 82[20]. He lived at Wallis Farm, Rye and New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[288].
On 7 January 1813 when Hopley was 20, he married Lydia Stevens FOYE, daughter of William FOYE & Lydia SEAVEY, in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[20,288]. Lydia was born on 22 May 1795[20] and died in Rye, Rockingham co., NH on 14 June 1879; she was 84[20].
They had the following children: 316 i. William Foye (1814-1880) 317 ii. Mary L. (1816-) 318 iii. Elizabeth H. 319 iv. Lydia Ann 320 v. Adeline C. 321 vi. Madelaide M. 322 vii. Sarah 323 viii. Lucina 324 ix. L. Jane

Family of Robert YEATON Sr. (41) & Eleanor STONEMAN
154. Benjamin YEATON (Robert4, John3-2, Richard1) was born in July 1766 in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20] and was baptized in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH on 27 July 1766[20,250]. Benjamin died in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH on 6 March 1832; he was 65[20,224,304]. He is buried in the Cotton Cemetery, Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20], with his gravestone noting that he died on 29 February 1832, aged 67. On 25 February 1796 when Benjamin was 29, he married Sally LEIGH[20], in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20,305]. Sally was born circa 1772[20].
155. Robert YEATON, Jr. (Robert4, John3-2, Richard1) was born in October 1770 in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20] and was baptized there on 12 October 1770[20,250]. Robert died in Epsom, Merrimack co., NH on 11 October 1846; he was 76[20,217]. Robert was a Baker[20]. He is named in Strafford County Land Deeds[20,306].
On 22 July 1793 when Robert was 22, he married Mary or Polly RING, in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20,307]. She was born circa 1768[20] and died in Nottingham, Rockingham co., NH on 18 March 1835; she was 67[20,217].
They had the following children: 325 i. Charles Robert (1793-1848) 326 ii. Robert (1794-1808) 327 iii. Mary (ca1797-1826)
156. Sarah YEATON (Robert4, John3-2, Richard1) was born circa 1772 in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH and died after 1807; she was 35[20].
Family of Benjamin YEATON (42) & Mary MENDUM
157. Benjamin YEATON, Jr. (Benjamin4, John3-2, Richard1) was born in September 1757 in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20,250] and was baptized there on 25 September 1757[20]. On 15 December 1787 when Benjamin was 30, he first married Sarah RICHARDS[20,308], in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20,254]. They had one child: 328 i. Benjamin
On 17 November 1799 when Benjamin was 42, I believe that he second married Mary Ann GOUDY, in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[309]. This marriage is my own speculation. More concrete proof is needed.
158. Adington Davenport YEATON (Benjamin4, John3-2, Richard1) was born in September 1761 in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20,250]. It is noted that Adington “died in the war”, possibly the American Revolution[20].
159. Sarah YEATON[3,20,310,311,312] (Benjamin4, John3-2, Richard1) was born in March 1764 in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20] and was baptized there on 24 March 1764[20,250]. Sarah died after 1823; she was 58[20]. This death date is estimated form the fact that Sarah is noted on a number of deeds as releases her dower rights on property up to 1823[20].
On 8 May 1782 when Sarah was 18, she married Jonathan HEARD, son of Reuben HEARD & [not known] WALTON, in Rochester, Strafford co., NH[20,310]. Jonathan was born circa 1758 in Rochester, Strafford co., NH[20] and died in Farmington, Strafford, co., NH after 1823; he was 65[20]. Jonathan could read and write, as his signature is on a letter dated 19 July 1780 concerning wages for his service during the American Revolution[20].
He received land from his father Reuben Heard and sold land to his son, Frederick Heard (dates and locations unknown). In a deed [Strafford Deeds 46:23] dated 2 February 1802 (and recorded 7 April 1804), Jonathan granted 18 acres of land in Rochester, Strafford co., NH opposite Norway Plains Mills to one James Tebbetts. Witnesses to the deed were John Plummer, Jr. and Relief Heard. Sarah released her dower rights to the property. In a January 1803 deed [Strafford Deeds 42:26] (recorded 7 April 1804), he granted George Heard of Rochester, Strafford co., NH, Husbandman, 53 acres in Rochester comprising the 2nd Division, No. 120 which was originally drawn to Joseph
Page 34 Yeaton Full Register Report Jenks. Witnesses were John Plummer, Jr. and Benjamin Hayes. Sarah again released her dower rights.
Jonathan is listed as a head of household in the 1790 Census of Rochester, Strafford co., NH. He is listed next door to Reuben Heard; with a family of one boy under 16 (Frederick) and 3 women (inclusive of his wife); ergo two daughters (one of which is Relief). He is again so listed in the 1800 Census of Rochester, Strafford co., NH with his household comprising one son 10 to 16 (Frederick) 1 male 26 to 45 (himself) and 1 male over 45 (his father Reuben most likely). There is a girl under 10, one 10 to 16, one 16 to 26 (Relief), one 26 to 45 (his wife) and one over 45 (his mother?). This leaves still two unaccounted for daughters. One of which must be a Mary Heard named for her maternal grandmother Mary (Mendum) Yeaton. If so, she may be the Polly Heard who married in Rochester on 14 Nov 1813 to William Remick. The other daughter remains unknown, but is possibly the Jane Heard who married Elijah Varney.
They had the following children (surnamed HEARD): i. Relief was born circa 1783and died in 1852; she was 69[20]. ii. Frederick was born circa 1787 and died in 1846; he was 59[20]. iii. [probably Mary or Polly] iv. [possibly Jane]
160. Jonathan YEATON (Benjamin4, John3-2, Richard1) was born in 1767[20] and died in Dover, Strafford co., NH on 27 September 1848; he was 81[20]. He is buried in the Pine Hill Cemetery, Dover, Strafford co., NH[20].
Before 1798 when Jonathan was 31, he married Lydia SAWYER[20]. Lydia was born on 30 November 1763[20] and died in Dover, Strafford co., NH on 11 November 1830; she was 66[20,313]. She, too, is buried in the Pine Hill Cemetery, Dover, Strafford co., NH[20]. Lydia released her dower on a deed dated 27 April 1798[20,314].
161. Thales Greenwood YEATON (Benjamin4, John3-2, Richard1) was born in March 1770 in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH[20] and was baptized on 11 March 1770[20,250]. Thales Greenwood died in Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH on 1 May 1821; he was 51[20,315]. Thales was a Tobacconist[20].
On 3 September 1791 when Thales Greenwood was 21, he married Judith LOW, in Newburyport, Essex co., MA[20,316]. Their marriage record from the Newburyport vital records reads “Thales Greenwood [of Portsmouth. int.], and Judith Low, Sept. 3, 1791 [int. also recorded]”. Judith was born circa 1767 in Dover, Strafford co., NH[20] and died in Boston, Suffolk co., MA on 14 March 1838; she was 71[20,149].

John was a prosperous farmer and a registered Democrat[99]. He was also a member of the Congregational Church in Rye[99] and was on the 1827 list of Founders of the Congregational Society (as John R. Yeaton) in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[215]. John gave each of his sons a farm, in addition to 90 acres of his own, which he retained until his death[99].

199. Mary S. YEATON (Philip4, Joseph3, John2, Richard1) was born circa 1804[328] and was aged 41 at time of her marriage in 1845. Her occupation was “Operative”, perhaps meaning that she worked in the Lowell, Middlesex co., MA mills[328], where she was living at the time of their marriage[328].
On 12 August 1845 when Mary S. was 41, she married John M. WARES[328], son of Moses WARES & Rebecca [surname not known], in Lowell, Middlesex co., MA[20]. John was a farmer and was born circa 1802[328], as he was aged 43 at time of their marriage in 1845. Their Lowell marriage record reads: “Mary S., unm., of L., a. 41 y., operative, d. Philip and Huldah, and John M. Wares, widr., of Michigac, a. 43 y., farmer, s. Moses and Rebecca, Aug. 12, 1845.”[328]
Family of Andrew Mace YEATON (72) & [not known]
200. Nathaniel Jordan5 YEATON[20,291,329,330,331] (Andrew Mace4, Benjamin3, John2, Richard1) was born circa 1775 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH, as estimated from the fact that he was 18 at the time of his marriage in 1793. Nathaniel Jordan died in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH circa 1841/1842; he was 66[157].
Nathaniel Jordan Yeaton lived in New Castle his entire life. He is first listed on the Town Tax of 1792[166] and remains on the rolls through 1806: he is on the Tax list of 1793[167]; is probably the Nathaniel on the Inventory & State Tax lists of 1795[243]; he is on the Town Tax list of 1796[170]; Nathaniel does not appear again until Tax list of 1800[172] and is on the Inventory and Tax list of 1803[145,146].
Starting with the tax list of 1804, he is listed together with John Crucy Yeaton[147]; and again in both Tax lists of 1806[173,174] he is listed just below John Crucy. This and the four-year gap off the rools between 1796 and 1800 can perhaps be explained by his chronic alcoholism. He is noted as the “town drunk” and, finally, in 1827, Nathaniel’s son Edward T. was appointed his guardian for Nathaniel’s excessive drinking[157]. It is possible that Nathaniel was living with/cared for by John Crucy Yeaton circa 1804-1806.
Nathaniel’s parentage is given in the following statement by Martin Hollick: “Nathaniel Jordan Yeaton was first taxed in New Castle in the year 1792, so probably born about 1770-1. This jives well with his marriage date of 1793. That would infer that he was over 16 in the 1790 census but not yet a head of household. Assuming that he was a native of New Castle (he marries, lives and dies there), he must be in the household of someone in the 1790 census named Yeaton with at least 2 men over 16, one of which was the head of household. Only two people fit that description: John C. Yeaton and Andrew M. Yeaton. John Crucey Yeaton, son of Richard-3 John-2 can be eliminated since his son William born 1772 is the second person. Therefore, I think Nathaniel's father was Andrew Mace Yeaton, son of Benjamin-3 John- 2. These are the only two Yeatons with more than one man over 16 listed and both have only two.”
Unfortunately, neither Andrew Mace Yeaton nor Nathaniel Jordan Yeaton left any deeds or probate records whatsoever. However, further research proceeds to find more evidence of Andrew’s parentage of Nathaniel and -- hopefully -- the identity of his wife. In addition, an examination of all the deeds & probate for members of the Jordan family (especially those named Nathaniel) from 1760-1790 will hopefully provide the necessary clues to link the
Page 38 Yeaton Full Register Report Jordan and Yeaton families. As Hollick points out, “…he didn't pick the name Nathaniel Jordan out of a hat”
There was a Nathaniel Jordan of Falmouth, Cumberland co., ME whose intention of marriage to Mary Adams of York, York co., ME was entered into the York vital records on 29 November 1746 [NEHGR 114(Oct. 1960):290]. The proximity of York to New Castle and the preponderance of Yeatons in the Cumberland co., ME area make this a likely match. A Nathaniel Jordan was born at Falmouth on 24 December 1718, the child of Dominicus and Joanna Jordan. [NEHGR 14(April 1860):145]. A Nathaniel Jordan filed an intention of marriage with Sarah Woodbury of Beverly (I am assuming Beverly, Essex co., MA) on 2 August 1740 in Falmouth, Cumberland co., ME. [NEHGR 16 (October 1862):318]. Several other Nathaniel Jordans have marriage intentions listed on page 319 of the same article. Nathaniel Jordan, son of Jeremiah and Sarah was baptized at the South Church of Portsmouth, Rockingham co., NH on 5 June 1726. [NEHGR 81 (October 1927):428]. An inscription in the graveyard at Poland, Androscoggin co., ME notes that “Abigail Jordan, wife of Nathaniel, died April 11, 1852, aged 54 years” [NEHGR 89(July 1935):274]. The family of Nathaniel and Peace Jordan are found at Newfield, York co., ME [NEHGR 97(October 1943):365]. Most intriguing is the notation that “Nathaniel Jordon” was assessed £16 in the 1763 Province Tax for New Castle, Rockingham co., NH [NEHGR 105(April 1951):112]. In short, any of these are likely candidates to have intermarried with the Yeatons.
On 9 April 1793 when Nathaniel Jordan was 18, he married Jane AMAZEEN[330,331], daughter of Christopher AMAZEEN & Mary TREDICK, in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[157,332]. They were married by "Mr. Walton" and their New Castle marriage record reads: “Nathaniel J. Yeaton & Jane Amazeen int. 23 Mar 1793 (3:223, 269), marr. 9 Apr 1793 (3:226)”. Jane was born circa 1772 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[157] and died in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH on 11 November 1862; she was 90[157].
They had the following children: 341 i. Margaret (ca1802-1893) 342 ii. Edward T. (Twin) (1795-) 343 iii. Nathaniel (Twin) (1795-) 344 iv. Benjamin (1809-1884)

William C. married Mary Frances DUVAL[20], who was born on 12 January 1812 in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[333]. The Family Records refer to her as “Maria Yeaton”...perhaps William is her second marriage? Or maybe it is just an error.

On 13 June 1821 when Margaret was 19, she married William HALL, in New Castle, Rockingham co., NH[360]. Their marriage record reads “William Hall & Margaret Yeaton 13 June 1821 (int. 23 Apr) (3:131, 139, 295)”.
