John Eaton was a teacher from 1836 - 1881 and lived in the school house. During my research into Ballyneaner Nat. School which shut in 1966 I was under the illusion, until recently, that John Eaton was Albert Eaton's grandfather. The Eatons (Albert)were the next door neighbours ; alas no more. Albert Eaton's father is called Samuel & grandfather is called Alexander ; likewise his great grandfather. John Eaton had children and had rented 'a small farm' from W.Ogilby (Landlord, gov. of the school & of the Castle fame !!)
Is John Eaton related to the family above ? ----the headstones are in the same plot.
