Eaton History

As you well know, I am a fan of The Piedmont Trails blog. One recent entry, the family surname Eaton, falls right in with a direct family line of my own.

The Eaton family can be found throughout Stokes, Surry, and Rowan County-to name a few. Here is the link to the Eaton blog post. While you are there read about Christopher Valentine; most people find it to a unique and interesting story.
