Eunice "Unicy" Hunt married Jesse Adams 5/26/1782 in Franklin County, NC
Unicy became entitled to a widow's pension after Jesse's death 12/6/1835 in Benton County, TN
. An affidavit by son-in-law Jesse Hammonds dated 1/12/1844 said she was "77 on the 21st of November last". Another statement said she was "74 on the 21st of November last" so we can be confident of her birthday.
..On the 1850C NICA ADAMS age 83 resided with her daughter & son-in-law Mourning & Jesse Hammonds. Her parents married in 1766 and she was the 2nd child which along with the census record would place her dob as 11/21/1767 She presumably died in Gibson Co, TN during that decade but I do not know her precise date of death
On June 18, 1840 in Benton County Tennessee, Unicy Adams, 74, filed for a widow's pension under the 1836 act stating that she is the widow of Jesse Adams who was a pensioner at the rate of $26.66 per annum for his service in the revolution; that she married him May 26, 1782; that he died December 6 1835 and that she remains his widow.]
