Birth*1747Jonah Heaton was born in 1747 in Morris County, New Jersey.2 
Occupation*He was an excellent gunsmith and is credited by some with making the first gun in the west.2,4 
Biographical Info*Our source, Heaton Families II, described Jonah as a very interesting character, and a widely traveled, true pioneer. He was in the west long before most Americans and developing wide tracts of land in western Kentucky with or before Daniel Boone. In the early 1760s, with at least two of his brothers, Jonah was blazing trails in Berkeley and Rockingham counties in Virginia.2 
Biographical Info Heaton Families II reported some of the contents of a long article that appeared in the Miami Valley, Ohio newspaper in 1889 in celebration of the pioneer reunion of that year. The accuracy of the information has not been verified. From Heaton Families II:


"The article was about Jonah Heaton who was the area's first pioneer. The article states that he was born in 1735 and he was a child when his family moved to central Pennsylvania. In 1750 he was captured by the Indians while on a hunting party. The Indians took him to Prosaue Island on Lake Erie. Jonah was with the Indians when General Braddock lost the battle against the French in 1755. He was again with the Indians in 1758 at the battle of Fort McQuense. He was adopted by a chief of the Shawnee tribe and was given the name of Red Hawk. He remained with the Indians until 1764 when he returned to civilized life at Fort Pitt. After fighting in the Battle of Point Pleasant with Governor Dunmore (in) 1774, he went to Kentucky to guide for John Bowman (in) the expedition against the Indians on the little Miami River. In 1880 (sic) he served as a guide to George Rogers Clark against the Indians. He roamed over Kentucky and Ohio acting as an interpreter with the Indians. In 1786 and 7 he surveyed the southwestern portion of Ohio which was known as the Virginia Military Reservation. For his efforts he was award(ed) land there. In 1788 he is reported to have woman troubles in Louisville and therefore settled on the land he was given in Caesar's Creek where he lived in seclusion until 1802. The area was named for him and called Jonah's Run."5,6 
Biographical Info Jonah does seem to have experienced what today we would think of as a truly frontier life. The following was taken from a longer article by Karen Campbell, the genealogy librarian at The Mary L. Cook Public Library in Waynesville, Ohio:

"Jonah's Run Creek is named after the earliest known white resident in the Warren Co.-Clinton Co. area, Jonah Eaton. For ten years he lived on the north bank of Jonah's Run Creek about half a mile from Caesar Creek in a living tree house; literally in its hollow trunk, which was big enough for a room. The interior was said to have been 10' X 7' and high enough for a man to stand in. At a certain point he added on a porch before the entrance. The site of his unique house is now covered by the waters of Caesars Creek Lake.

Jonah Eaton was captured by Iroquois Indians when he was fifteen while on a hunting trip in Pennsylvania. He was taken to Presque Island in Lake Erie and was adopted into the tribe. He was eventually taken by the Shawnee to central and southern Ohio. He was adopted by the Shawnee Principal Chief, Red Hawk. After the victory of General Bouquet in 1764, he was returned to the whites. Because of a murder of a friend by an Indian, Eaton happily returned to white culture and went on to fight with General Dunsmore's forces at the Battle of Pt. Pleasant in 1774 and was a scout for Colonel John Bowman in his campaign against the Indians at Old Town. He was also a scout for General George Rogers Clark in his attack against Piqua in 1780. He was an interpreter at the Treaty of Fort Stanwick and at the Treaty of Fort Finney. After the signing of the Northwest Ordinance of 1784, he was hired by Colonel Richard Anderson of Louisville, Ky. to survey the Little Miami Valley. Eaton traversed what is now Warren, Greene and Clinton counties for 14 months making crude maps of the area.

Even though he received land as compensation for his surveying, as he grew older and the population increased, he decided to go find his kin back in the east. At the age of 67 years, in 1802, he left and returned to Pennsylvania. None-the-less, an image of this formidable frontiersman carrying his famous long rifle called the "Great Goose-Gun" striding to his tree-truck home is conjured up whenever anyone drives over or past Jonah's Run Creek.7 
Marriage*He married first Elizabeth __?__. Her surname may have been GUM or GUN.2 
Court Action*In 1776, Jonah had claimed title to 1,000 acres of land in what would become Louisville, Kentucky. On 22 April 1780 a Court held by the Commissioners of the Kentucky District for Adjusting Titles of unpatented lands issued a certificate to Jonah for his 1,000 acres. Then, during Jonah's several years' absence from the area, the name of the place changed and was no longer known as Heaton's Creek, and William Oldham, in 1788, claimed Jonah's 1,000 acres as his own. Jonah sued Oldham in court to recover his parcel of land, with his brother David Heaton from Berkeley County, Virginia acting as his attorney. We've not yet learned the resolution of the case.2,8 
(Head of Household) Research Notes1790The names of the heads of household on the 1790 Census taken in Washington County, Pennsylvania, were not later alphabetized so it's possible to get a feel for relatives and other neighbors who probably lived nearby. On page 170, Daniel Heaton is near the top of the census page, and his son David is across from him on page 171. William Heaton is next to David. Near the bottom of page 170, Isaac Heaton is listed between his sons John and Henry. Jonah "Eaton" appears a short distance above them on the same page. John Heaton and William "Eaton" appear near the top and bottom of page 159, another Isaac Heaton is on page 160, Miles Heaton on page 169, John "Hitton" on page 183, Ebenezer Heaton on page 192 and another John Heaton on page 199.

Jonah's household consisted of eight people, 1 free white male aged 16 and over, 5 free white males under the age of 16, and 2 free white females.9,10,11,12,13,14

Name VariationThe source reported his name as Jonathan D. Heaton.1 
(Son) Death18 June 1778Jonathan was 15 years old when his father died on 18 June 1778 at about age 40.1,2 
(Son) Marriage11 December 1779When he was 17 years old, on 11 December 1779, Jonathan's mother married a second time to Joseph Morris in the First Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia. It may not have been a happy marriage, as Joseph was described as a self-indulgent man, "a noisy fellow who never did much good, and was no credit to the name of Morris."6,7,8,3,4,9 
Administration*9 December 1783When Jonathan reached the age of 21 years, he was appointed Administrator for the estate of his father Davis Heaton, late of Hilltown Township, Bucks County, yeoman, deceased. As Administrator, Jonathan petitioned the Orphans' Court of Bucks County on 9 December 1783 to audit and settle the estate's account and also to appoint guardians for his minor siblings. Stating he had received and discharged several sums of money due to, and from, the said estate, by reason of the several contracts defending, he therefor prayed his Worships to appoint suitable men to audit and settle the same and make a report thereof the next Term. And likewise, to appoint guardians over his siblings, Robert, Jesse, Mary and Thomas Heaton, who were all minors under fourteen years of age.

Upon considering the prayers in the petition submitted by the Administrator, Jonathan Heaton, son of the deceased Davis Heaton, the court appointed Cadwallader Morris, John Kelly and Ebenezer Owen to settle the accounts of his Administration and make a report thereof. Cadwallader Morris was an older brother of Joseph Morris, who would later marry Jonathan's widowed mother, Susannah (Jones) Heaton.2 
Guardianship*9 December 1783On the same date of 9 December 1783, in response to the petition by Jonathan Heaton, Administrator of his deceased father's estate, regarding his siblings, the Orphans' Court of Bucks County, Pennsylvania, appointed their uncle, Thomas Jones, guardian for the deceased's and Susannah (Jones) Heaton's minor children, all under the age of 14 years, Robert, Jesse, Mary and Thomas Heaton, to take care of them, and their estate.10,2 
Auditors' Report*4 December 1784Cadwallader Morris, John Kelly and Ebenezer Owen, who were appointed on 9 December 1783 by the Orphans' Court of Bucks County to audit and settle the accounts of Jonathan Heaton, Administrator for the estate of Davis Heaton, late of Hilltown in the county aforesaid, made their report to the court on 4 December 1784. Stating that in obedience of the said order, they had met and examined the accounts exhibited by the Administrator, and presented to the court their itemized list of assets and debts of the estate of Davis Heaton, deceased. The written report they submitted and signed identified debts of the estate exceeding assets by more than £200.11 
Estate*13 December 1784Jonathan again petitioned the Orphans' Court after receiving a copy of the auditors' report listing the assets and liabilities of his father's estate. He stated that the debts against the Estate amounted to upwards of £200 more than the personal estate would discharge, as appeared by the settlement of the estate by the auditors, and accordingly requested the court to grant an order to sell the real estate of the deceased consisting of 100 acres of land situate in Hilltown Township in order to enable him to discharge the said debts. The court approved the request on 13 December 1784, to allow the sale of the said real estate by the Administrator, according to Law, and to discharge the debts in the petition mentioned and make a report thereof to the next Orphans' Court.12 
Marriage*1785He married Rachel Lewis, daughter of Zachariah Lewis and Sarah __?__, about 1785.13,14 
Occupation*Jonathan and Rachel were farmers, and remained in Bucks County their entire lives.15 
Death*9 January 1819He died on 9 January 1819 in New Britain, Bucks County, at age 5616,17,18,19 
Burial* and was buried in Hilltown Baptist Church Cemetery Upper, Perkasie, Bucks County.17,20
