Notes
a. Note:   Eads, Kiowa County, Friday Dec 13, 1929:
  "Eunice Griffin Towse was born June 17th, 1848 at Grand Manan, New Brunswick. In 1873 she was united in marriage with Mr WW Towse at Whiting, Maine.
  Having the pioneer spirit in their veins they decided to come West and have a part in the settlement of this great territory. In 1875 they moved to Colorado where they continued to make their home. They settled at a little station known as River Bend, near Limon, Colorado. Later they lived in Pueblo for a number of years and in 1898 they came to the Chivington community and established their home here.
  Mr Towse died Feb 11, 1918 and since that time Mrs Towse has continued to live in the old home with her daughter, Mrs. Dawson.
  Mrs Towse was one of the pioneers of this state and of the Western Territory. She left the comforts of a settled and established community in the East to mingle her fortunes with those of a host of others who have heard the call of the great open spaces and the challenge of undiscovered countries. During those early days, there was danger and privation . Indian raids were common dangers. Probably her most dread danger of all was sickness. Many times there were miles and miles of open spaces between the frontier home and the nearest doctor. Mrs Towse was always ready to help whenever there was sickness and many a home has been blessed by her presence when sickness and death were there.. That her place as a pioneer mother was recognized was evident when last year she received an invitation to be the guest, along with a few other members, at the unveiling of the monument to pioneer mothers at Lamar.
  Mrs Towse was a member of the Presbyterian Church and her fine Christian character made her a lover of all who endeavored to serve the Master. She was untiring in her devotion as a mother..."
