I am searching John Heaton who emigrated to Sweden in 1632. According to swedish sources he was called Hitthon/Hitton or Hytthon/Hytton but I think that could be a swedish spelling of Heaton. In the LDS database I have found that they treat Heaton and Eaton as the same name. Very confusing! For people in older times it seems necessary to try every possible spelling. This is what I know about him from the swedish sources (from his own son). He was born in Berwick, father Samuel being a merchant. His mothers name was Helen Svenborn (probably Swinburne) and his maternal grandmother was Helen Lindsay (later married to Thomas Muschamp, colonel in the swedish army). In the LDS database I have found a Samuel Eaton married to Elenor Swinburne 1617 in Berwick upon Tweed, Northumberland. And a son John born there 1620. Anyone who knows about Heaton/Eaton/Hitthon/Hytthon family in Berwick or Border counties? Everything is interesting to me. Thanks Birgitta
