Justin Eastman was born in 1791 at Rupert, Vermont. During the War of 1812 Justin enlisted 11 Sep 1812, served in B. Streight's Vermont militia and was discharged 30 Nov 1812. He received bounty land for his service.
He was married to Thirza Wilson 6 Dec 1814 in Rupert, Bennington County, Vermont at the home of Thirza's father, Robert Wilson.
Justin moved to Wisconsin some time before 1836 as he appears on the 1836 Wisconsin Census index.
The 1850 census indicates that his son, Enoch, and his daughter, Sarah Pettis and grandchildren, Charles and Jennet were living with him at that time. Justin died in 1856 at Exeter, Wisconsin according to his military card, but since his grave stone is in Belleville, Dane County, Wisconsin, it appears more likely that he died there. The two towns are about 5 miles apart.
