About Hezekiah Eastman
Son of Joseph & Phebe Hendricks Eastman, settled here (Paris, later Marshall) in 1797 bringing his elderly parents with him. He married in 1774 Hannah Porter. The following is a chapter from Annals and Recollections of Oneida County, as published by Pomroy Jones in 1851, Elder Hezekiah Eastman commenced preaching to this people as early as 1796, probably earlier. After the church was constituted, he became its pastor, and continued his labors with it until 1809, when he asked and received a dismission to the Sangerfield Church. Soon after this he went on a missionary tour into the western part of the State, as is shown by the following extract from his journal: - "September 22, 1809, I set out on a missionary tour to the Holland Purchase."
Hezekiah and Hannah could be known as the Great Grandparents of modern photography. Their great grandson, George Eastman was the inventor of dry plate photography and the Kodak Camera.
