Real Daughter
Eunice Wade Beardslee
Picture
On June 7, 2014, at the Sparta Presbyterian Church Cemetery, the Chinkchewunska Chapter, NSDAR, held a special dedication ceremony to mark the grave of Real Daughter Eunice Beardslee.

A DAR Real Daughter is a woman who joined the DAR whose father and/or mother was a Revolutionary War Patriot. Eunice's father, Noadiah Wade, entered the military service at Morristown in October 1775. He was commissioned a first lieutenant in Captain David Thompson’s Company, Colonel William Winds’ New Jersey Regiment. In 1775, he was promoted to captain,  recruited his own company and served in Colonel Ephraim Martin’s 4th New Jersey Regiment until Oct. 30, 1777, when he left the military service on account of ill health.

Eunice indicated on her DAR application that her father served in the American Revolutionary War for four years and eight months. “He was a member of Washington’s staff, and I remember him telling me that he sometimes rode Washington’s white horse, shouting his commands. On account of ill health caused by the hardships of the war, he was forced to resign, and when he came home he sold his farm, leaving the proceeds to the government. He was paid back in Continental money, which so depreciated in value that he was left penniless after the war.”
