About Ellen Alice Eastman (Buchanan LaFollett)

profilephoto - Description Ellen Eastman (standing), wife of Dean H. Eastman, with mother Mary Ferguson, holding son Robert M. La Follette, and children Josephine (Josie) and William.

Carolyn Anderson -- February 9, 2009. I am looking for information on the family of Charles Sumner Eastman. He was born in 1864 in Wisconsin and married Agnes Colgan. Their children were Leroy, Thomas, Ruth, Dean, Arthur, Helen. Charles' parents were Dean H. Eastman and Ellen Buchanan. Ellen Buchanan parents were Alexander Buchanan and Mary Ferguson Buchanan( LaFollette, Saxton).

From (probably) a book about the La Follettes:

When Bob La Follette was three years old, his half-sister, Ellen Buchanan married Dean Eastman, a good-looking, upstanding, hard-working young man from Maine. Dean taught school, played the fiddle at country dances, and led the singing at church services. Mother La Follette took Dean to her heart, as she duid all her "in-laws." She relinquished her dower right in the Buchanan estate to provide a good home for her daughter and son-in-law, who with their large family were an intimate part of Bob's life.
