Her parents dying when she was an infant, she was raised by her maternal grandmother. She is referred to in Sutton records as "poor child of Sutton." She married, on 08 September 1772 at Sutton, Samuel Woodward, his second wife. Samuel Woodward, was born 11 December 1745 at Sutton, MA. He had married (1) 08 February 1769 Submit Hager, who died 1770, leaving no issue. Samuel and Eunice removed to Vermont, date unknown, but presumably after the Revolution, in which he served.

Hi,
I've just started doing some research, primarily for my mother. It seems our family is related thru Eunice Bigelow Woodward, daughter of Joshua -> Gershom -> Joshua ->John. I want to thank you and the rest of the Society for a great and informative site, especially the fact that it includes so much more than the standard geneaological stuff.
More:
I had a question about Samuel Woodward, 4th child of Samuel and Eunice. On the web page, it says that he married Polly
Brigham and had 6 children. I have information that he married Mary Newton and they had, at least, one child, Mary Newton Woodward. I'd appreciate any help clearing this up, no info on Mary Newton..................ROD

I should introduce myself, I am Joy (Hennig) Landholm working on research for family history on the WoodWard side.
My tree in Ancestry.com is henniglandholm.
I am tracing my ancestors back to the American Revolution and Samual Woodward is my 6 time Great Grandpa.

Samuel Woodward – original patriot
Lucius Woodward – Samuel’s son
Seymour Woodard – Lucius’s son
Merrick Woodard – Seymour’s son
Lena Woodard married Oscar Hennig in Tekemah, Nebraska – these are my Great Grandparents.
Lena is Merrick’s daughter
Claude Hennig (my Grandfather) is their son
Harry Hennig – Claude’s son
I am Harry Hennig’s daughter.
Anyway, I am trying to track information so I can submit this lineage to the Daughters of the American Revolution.

The main thing I do have is Eunice (Bigelow) Woodward’s death date. (Eunice died 01 June 1842 (aged 87) Springfield, VT. per Find a Grave) This was verified. I do have some information from the History of the Town of Springfield, Vermont, but that also has no death date.
I did find the Bigelow’s website, but it still did not have any information on her death other than she was living in 1832. I found her on the 1840 Federal Census, stating 85 years old. Birth year was abt 1755 and getting a veteran’s pension.
Also found her on the Vermont, Compiled Census and Census Substitutes index, 1790-1860. States Eunice Woodward, from Vermont, Windsor County, Age 85 from Springfield, year 1840.
Ancestry.com – chesmore walling family had Eunice Bigelow – she found the death record of Eunice Bigelow under this website – www.nekg-vt.com – death record found in list of member of congregational church in Windsor county.
Verification of her death.
Hope you can find this.
