C, 18th Massachusetts Infantry Daniel Dunham was the son of Isaac L. and Hannah Dunham. Declaring himself a 21 year-old Farmer, even though he was actually only 15, Daniel enlisted at Cambridge, MA on Nov. 4, 1861, after being recruited by Capt. William S. McFarlin. He was subsequently mustered as a Private in Co. C of the 18th Massachusetts Infantry on Jan. 14, 1862. He was wounded before Petersburg, VA on July 15, 1864, his left arm being torn off, four inches below the elbow, by a shell. He was discharged due to his wounds on October 20, 1864 at Gallup's Island, Boston Harbor, MA. Daniel returned to Carver following his military service and engaged in peddling and trading. He later worked as a foreman for a cranberry grower and, due to the loss of his arm, was obliged to hold pay tickets in his mouth, when paying workers. It was subsequently determined the cards contained large amounts of arsenic, which over an extended period of time resulted in toxic poisoning and was the primary cause of his death in 1887. On Nov 17, 1866 Daniel married Eunice T. Shurtleff, the daughter of Albert and Lucy (Shaw) Shurtleff. Her father Albert had served in Co. C, 18th Mass. Infantry. Daniel and Eunice were the parents of Willie B., born ca. 1868; Teresa M., born ca. 1870; and Charles O., born April 19, 1871. Eunice died in Carver on Sept. 7, 1874. Daniel remarried to Sylvia Cobb (Fuller) Dunham Chandler, the daughter of Benjamin F. and Lucy (Stone) Fuller at North Carver, MA on April 17, 1883. They were the parents of Walter Howard, born August 14, 1884; and Maud Elaine, born August 10, 1885.
