In September of 1835 her family was living in Carlton, Orleans, New York at the time of her father's death. Because
she was under the age of 21 years the court appointed Calvin Rundell, her brother-in-law, as her Guardian. Calvin Rundell
resided in Penfield at this time. After their marriage Eunice Cook and Peter Crippen made their home in Penfield. After Peter's
death we have not found where Eunice is in the 1875 census but is listed with her son, John Crippen, in the town of Penfield
from IN 1880 and 1905. She was appearently still living at his home when she died in 1907.

RESEARCH:
RESEARCH QUESTIONS AND IDEAS FROM PAUL HENKE (March 16, 1995): The key to finding out more information on the
family is to find an obituary or something in the court records about the death of Amasa. These records would probably tell
what family members are still alive and where they are living and probably married names of the daughters and maybe names
of the spouces. The 1880 census need to be check to find out where AMASA and his family are.
