At his funeral, his pastor, Rev. Mr. Humphreys spoke as follows :


Friends, we have gathered here to-day to pay our tribute of respect to one who will be missed more generally than most ; for he dealt in one way or another with all classes of his fellow citizens. He will be

missed by the struggling poor, by whom his name is even now covered with blessings, for the help of the well considered charity which he founded. He will be missed by many a workman, who has found him ready to loan money to meet emergencies where banks would not allow themselves to take the risk. He will be missed by the officers of our financial institutions, who have found him a careful inspector and wise adviser. He will be missed by the officials of the town, who have long found in him a safe guardian of funds and a judicious counsellor. He will be missed by the church, which has had so much of his personal interest and helpfulness. He will be missed, oh, how deeply, in the large circle of his relatives, who have always had in him a devoted nephew, uncle, and brother, carrying them all in his thoughtful sympa- thy and helpful care. He will be missed also very deeply in the large circle of his friends ; and who was not his friend? For though he might sometimes disturb you with a brusque remark, beneath it were always evident his constant kindliness and warm-hearted sympathy, and you could not long be offended. He seemed to carry everybody's in- terest in his large heart, and was as anxious that others should prosper as himself. He hated waste, and no one ever more thoroughly fulfilled the injunction, " Gather up the fragments, that nothing be lost." No doubt in later life he had an exaggerated estimate of the value of small gains, but there was never any meanness in it, and it was simply the habit of his mind remaining over from the days of small things. If our friend could speak to us to-day, it would be something as Samuel did in the presence of all Israel - And Samuel said, " now, behold, I am old and grayheaded ; ... and I have walked before you from my childhood unto this day. Behold, here I am : witness against me before the Lord, . . . whom have I defrauded? or whom have I oppressed? or of whose hand have I received any bribe to blind mine eyes therewith. . . . The Lord is witness that ye have not found aught in my hand."

History of Framingham.


CYRUS EATON, A.M.


CYRUS EATON was the son of Benjamin and Mary (Stacey) Eaton, and was born at the Charles Capen place in Framingham, Feb. 1I, 1784. When he was two years old, his father bought the Williams tannery, on the line of Southboro (now J. R. Rooke's brick-yard) and removed there with his family. There were numerous children, and their privi- leges were restricted. The school house of the district to which they belonged occupied the spot where Dr. Peter Parker's farmhouse now stands ; but the children were bright and ambitious, and the parents considerate of their welfare, and gave them all available means of edu- cation ; and all who survived infancy, became honored members of society. Cyrus was a wide awake, studious boy, a good scholar, and usually held a position at the head of his classes. When the Framing- ham Academy was incorporated, he entered it as a student, and was punctual, though his morning and evening walks to school, via Salem End, were each fully three miles. It is believed that his attendance at the Academy was limited to a single quarter ; but it gave him a taste of the higher learning, and aroused ambition, which prepared the way for after advancement and success. He was employed as teacher of a dis- trict school in Southboro for one winter ; and in 1804 removed to what was then the wilds of Maine, with a colony from Framingham and vicinity. Here young Eaton was both teacher and scholar, carefully studying the branches which were required in the common schools where he taught, and devoting his leisure, and subtracting from the proper hours of sleep, to gain a knowledge of the sciences, and the ancient and modern languages. With very little help, aside from text-books, he became remarkably well versed in Latin, Greek, French and German - speaking the latter two with nearly the same fluency as his native Eng- lish. His career as a successful teacher covered 40 years. He had charge of the Warren Academy for twelve years, during which time it enjoyed the highest popularity.


Mr. Eaton was a man of public spirit, as well as a good scholar and teacher. He was intrusted by his fellow-citizens with responsible offices, and had large influence in civil and political affairs. He represented the town of Warren, then in the District of Maine, in the legislature of Massachusetts, for five years, and was thirteen years the town clerk. Growing up with the new towns and institutions, he was familiar with the foundations and superstructure of municipal and social life ; and being a close observer, and philosophical reasoner, his knowledge of men and things qualified him for the work of local historian. In 1845, he lost his sight entirely, having been partially blind, as the result of an


447


Cyrus Eaton, A.M.


accident, for some time before. But this calamity did not destroy his courage, nor prevent his continued work. By the help of his invalid daughter, Miss Emilie, he wrote the " Annals of Warren, Me.," an octavo of 437 pages, published 1851 ; "Woman," a poem, published 1854 ; and the " History of Thomaston, Me.," two volumes, octavo, published 1865. The histories are quite full and reliable, and found ready sale. He received the honorary degree of A.M. from Bowdoin College ; and was elected a corresponding member of the Wisconsin and Massachu- setts Historical Societies, and a resident member of the Maine Histori- cal Society. He was industrious, kind, of a clear perception, which lasted to the day of his death. He had no sickness at the last, and in fact he took so good care of himself, was so regular in his habits, that he was most always well. The last day he kept his bed, and his death was but the going out of the spark of life. He died Jan. 21, 1875.

A


GENEALOGICAL REGISTER


OF


FRAMINGHAM FAMILIES,


INCLUDING


ALL WHO TOOK UP RESIDENCE IN TOWN BEFORE A.D. 1860.


BY


J. H. TEMPLE,


AUTHOR OF "HISTORY OF WHATELY," "HISTORY OF NORTHFIELD," " HISTORY OF BROOKFIELD," ETC.


PUBLISHED BY THE TOWN OF FRAMINGHAM. 1887.


INTRODUCTORY.


THIS Register contains the names of all heads of families, found on our Town Records, who held taxable estate and had children born unto them in Framingham, before 1860. If families, resident in town anterior to that date, are omitted, it is because their names do not appear on the the Valuation Lists, and on the record-book of births. And if the lists of children in any families are incomplete, it is because the parents neg- lected to have the births recorded.


Explanation. - The plan adopted for indicating lines of descent in families, is not difficult to be understood. The parent has his number, which is expressed by a heavy-faced Arabic numeral. And each child, who is to appear again as head of a family, has his proper number, indi- cated by a similar figure. And if a child has no number annexed to his name, he is not further traced in that connection. The relation of par- ent and child is specified ; and the peculiar type used, readily catches the eye, and enables the reader to trace the line both forward and back- ward.
