  • Notes 
    • Cora's birth record says she is the 9th child born to Samuel R. & Laura A. Chafee, but I believe it should say 7th.

      In the 1900 Federal Census, Cora is age 17 and living at Bristol, RI, with her parents and two siblings.

      In the 1905 RI census she is age 22, still living with her parents in Bristol at 19 Congregation St.

      Cora and her husband moved to Pemaquid Point, Maine.
