Biographical History
William P. Eaton was son of Joseph Eaton (1775-1857) lawyer and judge of Windham Co., Conn. Eaton attended Yale in 1836. Driven by an "overstock in teaching profession" in New England, he moved to Greensboro, Ala. where he taught school. He then attended Harvard Law School in Spring of 1843, and in 1845 he resumed his teaching career in Greenville, Ala., moving to Harrison Co., Tex. in 1847. In July 1854, Eaton and his family moved to Lockport in Western New York where he taught school and gave public lectures. His only son Joseph attended the U.S. Naval Academy in 1864.
