Daughter of Benjamin & Martha (Forbush) Richardson. No birth record has been found. Her parents are identified in the entry in the Sutton death register for 1858, which also has her full age as 66 years, 2 months, 21 days.

She and Ebenezer Carpenter married in Northbridge on October 30, 1816. He died in 1823.

Widow Chloe Carpenter married David Leland in Sutton on May 11, 1828.

No record of her burial nor gravestone or grave marker for her has been found in Dodge Cemetery. At the time of her death, Dodge Cemetery was a family managed burial site. Except for a circa 1895 compilation of gravestone inscriptions by Reuben Rawson Dodge, no "record" of burials in this cemetery has been found in town burial records prior to 1916. This may be an example of the last member of a family to die having no memorial at the burial site. Alternatively, she may be buried with her first husband, Ebenezer Carpenter, in Lackey Cemetery in Northbridge, which is about 3 miles south.

The attached photo is of the memorial stone for David Leland, her second husband, their daughter Martha Furbush (Leland) Daniels, and her newborn granddaughter, Chloe Eliza Daniels.
