Legend of Watchung
Charles Aubrey Eaton was a longtime resident of Watchung and Somerset County. He was elected to the US House of Representatives in 1924 and served the 5th District of New Jersey for 28 years. He was appointed by President Roosevelt, to the UN Charter Conference in San Francisco in 1945.
Diary of Dr. Eaton’s father in law, Captain Parlin from the Civil War, along with some of his war artifacts. Captain Parlin led the first black battalion of soldiers and the diary in his own handwriting is a fascinating glimpse into the thinking and beliefs of that time.
