History
Mariné Josephine Chase was born on March 21, 1832, in Hartford, Connecticut, a daughter of Hiram Bundy (1802-1870).
Mrs. Chase was very active in organizing the Women's Christian Association of Hartford, whose interests she served with marked ability and devotion for several years. She was instrumental in the formation of the American McAll Association, whose president she was for several years. Her work in connection with the McAll Mission in France was an important and effective part of her life service. In later years, she resided near London, England with the widow of Reverend McAll. She had great executive ability and grace of character, which enabled her to advocate causes close to her heart.
In 1851, she married William H. Chase (1822–1883). She died on May 3, 1901, in DeKalb, Illinois.
