Livonia married Ezekiel Webster Eastman, Jr. on December 30, 1847, in Lowell, Massachusetts, when she was 17. Ezekiel was born 1827 in Moultonboro, New Hampshire, and was a traveling salesman. He served in the Civil War, enlisting on November 16, 1861, in Company H, 26th Massachusetts Infantry, and mustered out on March 9, 1864. He later was active in the Lowell City Guard, and was President of it at one point. He and Livonia had 4 children:

Ada Antoinette Eastman, born 1849, in Lowell, Massachusetts; married David Lewis Hill on April 3, 1872; she died September 20, 1910, in Boston and is buried in Piermont, N.H., no children;

George Washington Eastman, born 1851, in Moultonboro, N.H.; was an insurance agent; died June 1, 1902, in Malden General Hospital, Malden, Massachusetts; was married twice and had a son and a daughter;

Twins Herbert Walter and Horace Wilbur Eastman, born November 3, 1857, in Lowell, Massachusetts. Sadly, Horace died age 7, in 1864, of dysentery. Herbert grew up, married Nellie Eaton on January 9, 1890; was the Secretary of the Manchester Board of Trade; died of meningitis on January 10, 1898, age 40, in Manchester, N.H.

Both twins died before their mother. She knew sadness during her lifetime.

It appears she and Ezekiel divorced, since he moved to Louisiana, married Johanna Josephine Gruber, had a second family, with another set of twin sons born in 1868, and where he died in New Orleans in 1903.
