Biography

Eunice Huff was also called Enna Huff and later Eunice S. Huff Noack. Eunice Huff was a member of the National Woman's Party who took part in the 1917-1919 campaign to picket the Wilson White House for woman suffrage. The exact day of her death is unresolved. (Recorded as Eunice Sarah Huff; January 21, 1893 - August 1985)

She was arrested on August 14, 1918 during a demonstration and released, then returned with other protesters that evening and was rearrested. No sentence and no second release date have been located for that day, so no term of custody is recorded for it.

Stevens records that she served three days in January 1919 for applauding suffrage prisoners in court. The arrest, jail-entry and release dates for that term are all unresolved.

Stevens records that Eunice Huff was sentenced to three days for applauding suffrage prisoners in January 1919, not that she explicitly completed three days. The current individual row already says the dates are unresolved and no day counter should be computed. The stored nominal-as-actual day override is removed; no unsupported admission or release endpoint is substituted.
