Eunice Julia Spire was baptised on 26th December 1880 at Bidford-on-Avon in Warwickshire, daughter of Ellen Spire, formerly Belcher, and her husband Jabez William Spire, a gardener and labourer. Eunice was the eldest of eight children; her parents had only married four months before her baptism.

The 1881 census finds Eunice living with her parents on the High Street in Bidford. Between 1886 and 1888 the family moved to the nearby village of Broom, before moving again between 1888 and 1890 to the small town of Alcester, five miles north of Bidford. Eunice appears in the 1891 census living at The Moors in Alcester with her parents and siblings.

Eunice has yet to be researched after 1891.
