    • Census: 16 Jun 1900, Exeter Town, Rockingham County, New Hampshire, United States
    • Residence: Jan 1908, Exeter, Rockingham County, New Hampshire, United States

    Notes:

    [Exeter-1908a] and [Exeter-1908] both state that Warren Eastman was the son of John Eastman and Betsey Day of Parsonsfield, York County, Maine, but to date no records have been found to substantiate this. Moreover, LDS IGI has a complete listing of children of John Eastman, and no Warren is listed. It may be the case that Jeremiah Eastman (an elder son of John) and Warren Eastman, are the same man.

    [Exeter-1908a] lists Warren Eastman’s age at death as, “87 years, 8 months, 21 days.” This makes his birth date 19 Apr 1820. However, [Exeter-1908] and [NHBoVR-1908a1] both list Warren Eastman’s age at death as “86 years, 7 months, 21 days,” making his birth date 19 (20) May 1821. The May 1821 date also agrees with census records from sources [US-1880-1f] and [US-1900-1b]. Thus, the 1821 date is used.

    Warren Eastman moved to Exeter, Rockingham County, New Hampshire (presumably with his wife) in 1885.

    At the time of the enumeration of the 1900 US Federal census, Warren Eastman was living in the household of his daughter, Annie (Eastman) Manwaring, in Exeter, Rockingham County, New Hampshire.

    Notes:

    “10 Mar 1849” and “Chelsea, Suffolk County, Massachusetts”, derived from [LDS-IGI-1982c], are probably references to the date and location of Warren and Rachel’s registration of their intention to marry... not their actual marriage.

    [NEHGS-1849a] does not actually state that Warren Eastman and Rachel Young Cole were married in Quincy, Norfolk County, Massachusetts, but the location is assumed due to the following: Rachel and Warren were residents of Chelsea at the time; the marriage was registered in Quincy, and the officiating pastor was also from Quincy.
