Research Notes
Eunice's birth record states that her mother's name was Judith as in Judith Morrill Chadwick, but Judith had died in March, 1821. Joseph Chadwick married Eunice Bless on August 16, 1821, and Eunice was born on July 17, 1822. Eunice Bless Chadwick must have been her mother and not Judith.
