Moses Currier Eaton
I have an old studio photograph identified as M. C. EATON of Wentworth, NH which was taken at the Sanborn Studio in Lowell, MA in the 1860's or 1870's. The man in the photograph appears to be in 30's at the time the photograph was taken. I believe that this is a photograph of Moses Currier EATON. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Moses and his family:

Dr. Moses Currier EATON was b. 1839 in Warren or Wentworth, NH to parents Jesse EATON (1796-1874) and Eleanor or Elenor or Elinor or Elanor PAGE (1800-1885). Moses was one of 7 children born to this couple including Abigail Harriman; Susan M.; John P.; Hannah P.; Louisa J.; Martha Julia Carr; and Moses Currier EATON, all born between 1824 and 1839. In June 1963 when he completed draft documents he was living in Hanover, NH and was a student at Dartmouth College Medical School, graduating in 1864.

He was a practicing physician from 1865-1869 in Warren, NH and then in Plymouth, NH from 1869 to his death in 1872. Moses married Ellen “Nellie” Louisa WARD (1838-1921) on 15 Feb 1865 in Plymouth or Wentworth, NH and they had a son, Arthur Ward EATON (1867-1932). Moses died 29 Mar 1872 in Plymouth, NH and is buried in the Pleasant Valley Cemetery in Plymouth, NH.

I am hoping to get this photograph to family and would appreciate you contacting me if you are a member of this family or know someone who might be.

Thanks,
Shelley
Date & Place: in Wentworth, Grafton County, New Hampshire United States
