WILLIAM COLBY EATON-The conditions of life in New England, not less than the sturdy stock which originally peopled it, tend to produce many-sided, capable men, men who exemplify the idea conveyed by the term, "self-made man," men whose industry and close application have brought to them success and won them the confidence and esteem of their fellow- citizens. Such a man is William Colby Eaton, the well known and successful attorney of Portland, Maine, who throughout his life has made that city at once his home and the scene of his many activities, and who today enjoys a reputation unsurpassed as a capable attorney, who preserves in his conduct the highest ideals of the bar and a citizen of public spirit. He is a grand-son of Stephen W. Eaton, a native of Maine, and through him, is descended from a long line of worthy ancestors. The founder of the Eaton family in this country, where various of its members have played most distinguished parts in the affairs of their several communities, must have occurred at least as early as 1639.

The immigrant ancestor was John Eaton, who left a record which bears eloquent testimony to his possession of many sterling virtues, great courage and an unusual degree of intelligence. He came to this country with his wife, Anne Eaton, and their six children, but left no known record of the date or place of their arrival or of the vessel in which they came. However, his name appears on the proprietors books of Salisbury, Massachusetts, in the winter of 1639-40. Although there is no way of tracing directly his ancestry in the Old World, there can be very little doubt at least of the fact that he came from England, as his name and all his associations were characteristically of that people. He received a number of grants of land, one of which was a lot in Salisbury, near the present town office, and another upon which he appears to have dwelt was near the Great Neck Bridge on the Beach Road. This homestead has never passed out of the hands of the Eaton family, and is at present the possession of seven sisters, who together own it in equal and undivided shares. It is known in the community as "Brookside Farm." His first wife, Anne, died on February 5, 1660, according to an old record, and on November 20, 1661, he married a Mrs. Phebe Dow. From this worthy progenitor the line may be traced through John (2), Joseph, John (3), Wyman, John (4), Tristran, to Stephen W. Eaton, the grandfather of Mr. Eaton already referred to.

Stephen W. Eaton, son of Tristran and Betsey (Woodman) Eaton, was born at Buxton, Maine. The extraordinarily prominent part played by him in the development of the transportation systems of Maine was introduced and made possible as it were by the fact that his first employment was with the Cumberland and Oxford Canal Company, which turned his attention and thoughts to the problems which afterwards so entirely engrossed them. He remained with this company for a period, and was then engaged as an engineer in making the first survey of the line of the Atlantic & St. Lawrence Railroad, which has since become an integral part of the Grand Trunk System. When the road was finally completed he remained with it, taking for a time the office of freight agent. This position, however, he resigned in 1853 in order to take one of a similar character with the Michigan Central Railroad. He returned, however, to Maine, after a short period, where he became railroad superintendent at Leeds and Farmington. His next position was that of second lieutenant of the Androscoggin Railroad, and still later he became the first superintendent of the York & Cumberland Road. This was the last of the railroad offices held by him, as he withdrew about that time from railroading and settled permanently in Portland, where he engaged in commercial business on a large scale. He was for many years one of the most successful and prominent merchants of that city and was greatly esteemed by his fellow-citizens. In politics Stephen W. Eaton was a Democrat, and as that party was then dominant in the State he held a number of public offices. He was surveyor of the port of Portland during the administration of President Taylor, serving under Collector Jewett. He was a prominent Free Mason and was affiliated with many Masonic bodies in that part of the State. In the year 1854, however, he removed from Portland on account of the ill health of his family, and made his home in Gorham, though in spite of this fact he still attended to his business in the city. His death occurred at the age of seventy-one in Gorham, in 1876. Stephen W. Eaton married Miranda B. Knox, a native of Portland, a daughter of ____ Knox, who was a descendant of General Knox and had been born at Buxton. They were the parents of eight children, as follows: Stephen M., Samuel K., George R., Minnie, Charles P., Woodman S., Howard E., and Edward.

Woodman Stephen Eaton was born in Portland, October 16, 1846, and died in that city, August 28, 1905. He studied at a private school in Portland for a number of years, and later attended Gorham Academy. At the age of seventeen years he became an office assistant in the employ of the Berlin Mills Company at Berlin, New Hampshire. He spent some time afterwards at Lewiston, where he had a position with the freight department of the Androscoggin Railroad, a position which undoubtedly stimulated his interest in the question of railroads and may even have been responsible for his long and close association with railroading in that part of the country. However, his career in business life was cut short by his being appointed to a position in the office of the provost marshal at New Orleans, to which place he went and there discharged his duties until the close of the Civil War. Upon returning to Maine, however, he secured a position with the Androscoggin Railroad Company, where he worked for about a year as a freight checker. This he left to take a position as freight cashier of the Portland, Saco & Portsmouth Railroad, and remained with this company from 1867 to 1875. He was then appointed to the position of freight agent of the Eastern Railroad, and in 1882 the office of freight agent of the Maine Central Railroad was added to the other. He was appointed general freight agent of the Maine Central Railroad in 1885,remaining in this most responsible position for about twelve years. During the time that he served in this capacity, the railroad enjoyed an extremely rapid growth and his ability to handle the great business gave evidence of how great was the executive ability and adaptability which he possessed. Mr. Eaton, Sr., was a Congregationalist in his belief and attended the High Street Church of this denomination, giving liberally in support of its work. He was a Republican in politics, but though he gave active assistance to the party he never held public office of any kind and indeed eschewed rather than sought distinction of this kind. Like his father before him, he was extremely prominent in the Masonic order, in which he reached the thirty-second degree, and he was affiliated with the following Masonic bodies: Ancient landmark Lodge, Ancient Free and Accepted Masons; Mount Vernon Chapter, Royal Arch Masons; Portland Commandery, Knights Templar, of which he was past commander; Kora Temple, Ancient Arabic Order Nobles of the Mystic Shrine; and the Maine Consistory, Sovereign Princes of the Royal Secret. He was also a member of the Grand Commandery of Maine, in which he held the rank of sword bearer. Besides the Masonic bodies, Mr. Eaton, Sr., was a member of Legonier Lodge, Independend Order of Odd Fellows; the Eastern Star Encampment, Patriarchs Militant; the Bramhall League and the Cumberland, Portland and Country clubs. He married, October 16, 1866, Judith Annette Colby, of Gorham, Maine, a daughter of the Rev. Joseph and Almeda (Bailard) Colby. They were the parents of four children, as follows: William Colby, with whose career this sketch is particularly concerned; Edward S., who died in 1895, aged twenty-four years; Harry Woodman; and Gertrude May, who died in infancy.

Born January 13, 1868, in the city of Portland, William Colby Eaton received his education in the local schools of his native city. He graduated from the High School there in 1886 and then attended the academic course at Harvard University. From this he was graduated with the class of 1891 with the degree of Bachelor of Arts. He then entered the law school in connection with the same university, and also read law in the office of Charles F. Libby, Esquire. In the year 1894 he was admitted to the bar of Cumberland county, Maine, and at once opened an office at No. 97 Exchange street in that city. Here he engaged in a general legal practice in which he met with a high degree of success until at the present time he is regarded as one of the leaders of the Portland bar. For four years he held a commission as lieutenant-colonel on the staff of the governor, acting as aide-de-camp to that official. In 1901 and 1902 he was a member of the City Council from Ward seven, and in 1903 he was appointed assistant county attorney, holding that position in that and the following year. In 1905 he became county attorney and discharged the duties of this highly responsible post in that year and the next and also in 1909 and 1910. For a number of generations the members of the Eaton family have been prominent in Free Masonry and William Colby Eaton is no exception to this rule. He has attained the thirty-second degree in that order and is affiliated with Ancient Landmark Lodge, Ancient Free and Accepted Masons; Mount Vernon Chapter, Royal Arch Masons; Portland Commandery, Knights Templar; and Maine Consistory, Sovereign Princes of the Royal Secret. He is also a member of the local lodge of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, of the Cumberland, Portland, Athletic, Country and Lincoln clubs. Mr. Eaton is extremely fond of golf and finds his recreation in that delightful sport.

William Colby Eaton was united in marriage, May 16, 1895, at Portland, with Marion Durant Dow, a daughter of Frederick and Julia (Hammond) Dow, old and highly regarded residents of Portland. Mr. and Mrs. Eaton are the parents of one child, a daughter, Annette Hamrnond, born March 13, 1897, and now in Wellesley, taking a special course at the Dana Hall Branch in music.

About the learned professions generally, and especially that of the law, there has grown up a great body of tradition, an atmosphere of them, it might be said, the intensity and mass of which it is very difficult to imagine for those who have never entered it. The law is the heir of many ages, not merely in its substance, its proper matter. but in a myriad of connotations and associations involving all those who from time immemorial have dwelt with and in it; the great men who have made and adapted it, the learned who have interpreted and practiced it, the multitude who have been protected and, alas, victimized by it. From each and all it has gained its wisdom or wit, its eloquence or its tale of human feeling to point a moral, until by a sort of process of natural selection there has risen a sort of system of ideals and standards, lofty in themselves, and a spur to the high-minded, a check to the unscrupulous, which no one may disregard. The bench and bar in America may certainly point with pride to the manner in which their members have maintained the splendid traditions of the profession, yes, and added their own, no inconsiderable quota, to the ideals of a future time. Among those who may be prominently mentioned as having ably maintained these legal traditions in the day and generation of the State of Maine is Mr. Eaton, of Portland, whose career in the practice of his profession is worthy of remark.

Parents: Woodman Stephen EATON and Judith Annette COLBY.

Spouse: Marion Durant DOW. William Colby EATON and Marion Durant DOW were married on 16 MAY 1895 in Portland, Cumberland County, Maine. Children were: Annette Hammond EATON.


Woodman Stephen EATON was born on 16 OCT 1846 in Portland, Cumberland County, Maine. He appeared in the census on 2 JUN 1880 in Portland, Cumberland County, Maine. He appeared in the census on 4 JUN 1900 in Portland, Cumberland County, Maine. He died on 28 AUG 1905 at Portland, Cumberland County, Maine.
Woodman S. Eaton, who has been general freight agent of the Maine Central Railroad since 1885, was born in Portland, October 16, 1846, son of Stephen W. and Miranda (Knox) Eaton. He is of an old and respected Colonial family, whose progenitor, John Eaton, with his wife Anna and six children, came from England to this country more than two hundred and fifty years ago. They were residents of Salisbury, Mass., in 1640. John Eaton, of a later generation, great- grandfather of Woodman S., was born in Seabrook, N.H., in 1748, and was one of the pioneer settlers of Buxton, Me. He was the father of Tristram Eaton, who was born in Buxton, and spent the most of his days there, engaged in farming.

Stephen W. Eaton, son of Tristram, was born in Buxton, but spent the greater part of his active life in Portland, engaged first in railroading, later in mercantile business. His first work in connection with the traveling public was in the employ of the Cumberland & Oxford Canal Company; and he was next engaged as one of the engineers in the survey of the Atlantic & St. Lawrence Railroad (now the Grand Trunk), filling the office of freight agent when the road was completed. This office he resigned in 1853 to accept a position on the Michigan Central Railroad. Returning East after a short time, he was employed as railroad superintendent at Leeds and Farmington, next filling the office of second superintendent of the Androscoggin Railroad; and later he was first superintendent of the York & Cumberland. This was the last railroad office held by him, his next business venture being in the mercantile line; and for many years his name was on the list of prominent merchants of Portland.

In politics he was affiliated with the Democratic party, and was Surveyor of the port of Portland during the administration of President Taylor, serving under Collector Jewett. He was a member of the Masonic fraternity, prominent' in the councils of the Order. Mr. Stephen W. Eaton changed his residence from Portland to Gorham in 1854 on account of ill health in the family, though still attending to his business in the city; and he died in Gorham in 1876 at the age of seventy-one. His wife, Miranda Knox, was a member of an old Buxton family, her father also having been born in that town.

Woodman S. Eaton was the sixth in a family of eight children born to Mr. and Mrs. Stephen W. Eaton. He made his first acquaintance with books at a private school in Portland, and later attended the Gorham Academy, a noted school at that time. He went to work in 1863, when seventeen years of age, entering the employ of the Berlin Mills Company at Berlin, N.H., as an office assistant. He afterward spent some time in Lewiston, in the freight department of the Androscoggin Railroad, where he got his first idea of railroad work, and was next called to the South, filling a position in the office of the Provost Marshal in New Orleans till the close of the war. Returning to Portland, he was again employed by the Androscoggin Railroad Company, for whom he worked a year as freight checker. He then obtained a position as freight cashier for the Portland, Saco & Portsmouth Railroad, remaining from 1867 to 1875. In the latter year he was made freight agent of the Eastern Railroad, and in 1882 assumed the greater responsibilities of freight agent of both Eastern and Maine Central. Mr. Eaton has been general freight agent of the Maine Central Railroad since 1885, and during the past decade the road has had its greatest growth. Consequently his care and responsibility are yearly increasing. He has now in his office in Portland eleven clerks, and the admirable manner in which the great freight traffic of the road is handled proves Mr. Eaton to be a man of exceptional ability.

October 16, 1867, Mr. Eaton was united in marriage with Judith Annette Colby, of Gorham, daughter of the Rev. Joseph Colby, a prominent clergyman of the Methodist Episcopal church. Of the children born to Mr. and Mrs. Eaton two are now living - William Colby and Edward Stephen. The former, who is a practicing attorney in. Portland, married Miss Marion Durant Dow, daughter of Colonel Fred N. Dow and grand-daughter of General Neal Dow. Edward Stephen Eaton is in the general freight office of the Maine Central Railroad, associated with his father.

Mr. Eaton is a prominent Mason, belonging to Ancient Landmark Lodge, A. F. & A. M., of Portland; Mount Vernon Chapter; Portland Commandery, Knights Templars; and the Consistory, having passed the thirty-two degrees. He is also a member of Ligonia Lodge, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, and Eastern Star Encampment, and belongs to the Cumberland and Portland Clubs, the Country Club, and the Bramhall League. He attends the High Street Congregational Church, and contributes liberally to its support. The Eaton residence, a very handsome and comfortable dwelling, is at 754 Congress Street.

Spouse: Judith Annette COLBY. Woodman Stephen EATON and Judith Annette COLBY were married on 16 OCT 1866 in Maine. Children were: William Colby EATON, Edward S. EATON, Harry Woodman EATON, Gertrude May EATON.

Colby, Clarissa E. (20 AUG 1847 - 10 APR 1910)
Clarissa Eliza Colby was born in fort Ann, Washington Co., N.Y., Aug. 20, 1847, and died Sunday April 10, 1910, at the family homestead in Reseburg township, Clark County, Wis.

She was united in marriage to Wm. Colby Oct. 22, 1865 in Easton, Adams Co., Wis. She came to Clark County with her husband Jan. 6, 1880, where she has lived ever since.

Six children were born to them: Hattie Z. Einfeldt of Greenwood, Wis., Zadie C. Lemley of Chicago, Ill., Corlis T., Claude C. and Guy of the town of Reseburg, Clark County. The oldest, Jesse Ellery, departed from this world in 1903 at the age of 32.

Besides her children she leaves two brothers and three sisters to mourn her death.

She was converted to the Christian faith and joined the United Brethren in her youth. She joined the Congregational Church in Reseburg at the time of its organization in Aug. 1898 and has ever since remained a faithful and conscientious member of the same.

Her life was an exposition of loving devotion to her home and family, especially to her youngest son who is now in his eighteenth year, and who has been a helpless invalid since birth. It can be said of her that her life went out in service to all who needed help, like her Savior, she saved not herself even unto death.

After brief services at the house the remains were conveyed to the Reseburg Congregational Church, where a large concourse of friends and neighbors had assembled and from there to the cemetery. Her former pastor, Rev. Abraham Bell of Bloomer, Wis., officiated, the text being taken from James 2:18.
