3.  Scott Andrew Bartley, ed.  1997.  Vermont Families in 1791.  Vol. 1.  Genealogical Society of Vermont, Saint Albans, VT, pp. 87-88.  Gives a second daughter, Lois, as having been born ca. 1823.  Hardly likely as Edward Cheney died in 1812 and the first Lois survived (see next source), so one wouldn't expect a second daughter named Lois.  Or was "1823" simply a typo for "1813"?
