Hi Alan,
Your research is fascinating - keep sending it in.I am not even a descendant of Theophilus and Richard Eaton yet I am eagerly awaiting your posts.
Ann Lloyd (Theophilus Eaton's wife) and her 1st husband Thomas Yale have had many articles written about them due to the royal descent and a large number of famous descendants.Yet the ancestry of Theophilus Eaton has remained unstudied and largely a mystery.The ancestry you are uncovering could and probably should be published in major genealogical journal.
You mentioned you could read old English script.If you ever find yourself in a LDS Family History Center, film # 095371 Wills at the Diocese of Lichfield Episcopal Consistory Church contains the will of Henry Eyton of Eyton proved 1538.I can't read it - I would love for someone else to take a shot at it.I would mail you a copy but the copy is much harder to read than the original film.
Good luck,
Joe Cochoit
