It is not surprising that you did not find Eatons. Joseph may be buried wherever this New Britain Meeting was. I know George went back to Pennepek Meeting near Philadelphia and is buried there. Did you note a listing for Benjamin Griffith or any of the other names I just sent over (I guess they will post to the list soon.) Edie, again writes: I am interested in what you may have concerning your Eaton's pattern. I have not found where my Welsh Quaker Davis family were before coming to Hatfield perhaps as early as 1720. Do you have any references to Thomas DAVIS in Pennepek Mtg, or Newark?? Edie >> If Thomas Davis was always Quaker, he would not be found in my listings of Baptists, but I will look. The Eatons first came to Philadelphia and lived at Pennepek, predominantly Welsh Baptist Settlement, I believe. You might try looking for Thomas nearer to Philadelphia to start. My Eatons did have one brother, Edward, who was Quaker. He attended Oxford Meeting and married a woman, Sarah Shoemaker, from Abingdon Meeting. You might try looking at those. Have you tried a posting to Philly-Roots list? If I am not mistaken, the Philadelphia GenWeb page lists a website called, "The Quaker Corner". That might help you to know where to start looking. Good Luck, Cathey
