At some point, probably after the 1770 marriage of daughter Susanna, the family removed to Gilsum, New Hampshire, apparently to live with daughter Sarah, who had married there in 1766. It is not known whether Eunice made this trip, as no death record or gravesite has been found and she left no other record of having lived in New Hampshire.
Research note
Online family trees indicate a death date of 15 May 1785 in Gilsum, based on a Find-a-Grave profile[3]. But the gravestone pictured in that profile has the wrong parents and indicates an age of only 9 years.

From an email I got: While researching my family tree, I discovered that Eunice Bundy married Theodore Preston. They had lived in Connecticut, but moved to New Hampshire either with, or to be with, their daughter Sarah Preston Bliss and her husband Jonathan Bliss. There is record of Theodore's estate in probate in New Hampshire, but no mention of Eunice dying there. There are records of them being members of the same church as Sarah and Jonathan, and Theodore is listed as the first blacksmith in Gilsum. It makes me sad that I am the only one who knows this. ?
