Notes |
- Rev. Mr. Eastman graduated from Dartmouth Col. in the class of 1794, and after taking the usual
course of theological study, and being ordained, he entered upon the work of the ministry at
Norwich, Chenango Co., NY. Here he remained several years, when he received a call from the
Congregational Church in Marshall, Oneida Co., NY, and was installed its pastor in May 1809.
Here he bought a farm and farmed it until 1822, when he sold his farm and removed to York,
Livingston Co., NY, where he bought a farm of 56 acres near the village of Fowlerville, and
erected the necessary buildings, and commenced his ministerial work in Greigsville in the same
town, and was instrumental in instituting the First Congregational Church of York. Mr. Eastman
was a man possessed of a marked vein of humor, much urbanity of manner, exceedingly fond of
society, a pungent and effective preacher of the Word, and always popular and in demand among
the young people of his vicinity desiring the offices of a clergyman to join them in the holy
bonds of wedlock.
