    Notes for WILLIAM WALLACE EATON:
    l. From the Bonners Ferry Herald: Bonners Ferry, Idaho, 17 Feb 1920
    EARLY PIONEER OF BONNERS FERRY, WILLIAM EATON DIES FRIDAY
    William Eaton, "The Father of Bonners Ferry" died Friday at one o'clock at his home west of the the schoolhouse. The funeral was held Sunday afternoon at the local Masonic Lodge, of which the deceased was a member, having charge of the services in accordance with the wishes of Mr. Eaton, oftimes expressed. A full representation of the Masonci Lodge marched to the cemetery under the command of J. W. Stewart. The pallbearers were George T. Gray, H. P. Garratt, Fred Gleed, F. A. Schultis, E. L. Little, and J. B. Bra???.
    At the grave the beautiful and impressive Masonic funeral service was given in its entirety. The coffin was well covered with many beautiful floral tributes.
    The deceased was 90 years old and was born 13 October 1829, at Newark, New Jersey. He came to this district 32 years ago and was one of the first white men to settle here. He is survived by his wife, to whom he was married in 1876 in Page County Iowa, and nine children; Mrs. T. J. Jones, Mrs. Eva Roath, Harry Eaton, and Roy Eaton, all of this city; Mrs. W. A. Sweet of Spokane, Mrs, Addie Hopper of Oregon; Mrs. Fannie Holbrook of Nebraska, Orson Eaton of southern Idaho, William W. Eaton of Wolf Creek Alberta, Mrs. Sweet of Spokane was here to attend her father's funeral but the other children residing out-of-town were not able to be here.
    The deceased came from the well known Massachusetts family of Eatons whose progenitors came with the early Pilgrim Colonists to that "stern and rock bound shore".
    About 1839 his parents immigrated west and settled in the Ohio river valley. The call of the west found eager response in Mr. Eaton in his early years and he worked in the lead mines of Galena, Illinois. and later lived at Keokuk Iowa. Here he received a rudimentary school education.
    In the year 1849 Mr. Eaton had migrated to the most advanced outpost of the U. S. Army, later known as Fort Omaha, and here he engaged in trapping and trading.
    When the Civil War came Mr. Eaton applied for enlistment but was rejected on account of a physical injury he had received by accident. However; he was appointed a Leutenant of the Home Guards Organization, whose duty it was to patrol the state boundaries and quell roving bands of guerillas and bandits that infested the district.
    After the war he engaged in farmilng in Kansas and in 1887 he traded his farm for merchandise stock in Alton Kansas. In the spring of 1888 in company with a friend, William Rosegrant, Mr. Eaton came to the northwest for a hunting and exploring trip, and traveled over the mountains by way of Bull Lake Montana, coming to the Kootenai River at Troy and floating down the river on a raft to Bonners Ferry. They continued their journey to coast points but of all the places they visited they were most impressed with the country about Bonners Ferry and on their return home Mr. Eaton set about to make arrangements to return and bring his family and stock of merchandise. Mr. Rosegrant entered into partnership with him in the store venture and the party arrived here in August 1888. A large log building had been previously constructed almost upon the exact site of the present Eaton home and he purchased this and opened up for business as soon as he could freight his goods from the Northern Pacific railway by wagons. The merchandise business was slow aft first but it later became profitable.

    William married Caroline Greene. Caroline (daughter of John Green and Lydia Page) was born on 9 Nov 1831 in ; died on 10 Jan 1902 in Hastings, Mills Co, Iowa, USA; was buried in ~(North Grove Cemetery). [Group Sheet]

    Email from Joyce S.
    Notes for CAROLINE GREEN:
    l. was also married to James W. Roath
    2.from Karen Gaughan P: ABOUT THE GREEN BK: It starts with WM GREEN who md Elizabeth Warren, has descent from "good Richard Warren;" every descendant of his only son William Greene, Jr. by his marriage traces also to John Tilley, Elizabeth and Johon Howland, of the same company. There are individual cases of additional lines to the Pilgrim fathers, but the above are common to all the family. There is one more matter of special interest: the wife of Capt. James L Green and consequently all their desc., trace, not by tradition, but unmistakable to three of the Barons, made sureties for Magna Charta. The book was printed in 1903. It does tell of diff Greens & where they migrated to.
