    2. Shelley Cardiel
    3. I've "rescued" an old photograph of Willard & Alice EATON which was taken at the Preble Studio in Waterville, Maine. The photograph is dated 1900 with the couple appearing to be in their 20's at the time it was taken. Based on limited research I was able to locate the following information: Willard Carr EATON was b. 19 Dec 1873 in Solon, ME to parents Llewllyn EATON and Almeda ROWELL. Willard d. Sept 1962 in ME. Son Bernet L. EATON b. 11 Dec 1908 in Skowhegan, ME d. during military service at Fort Jackson, SC on 19 Nov 1941. His death certificate lists his parents as Willard C. EATON b. Somerset, ME and Alice CASE also born Somerset, ME. At the time of his death his Mother was living in Skowhegan, ME.
