(Although
no documentation was found, it is possible that victims, Theresa Freeman
Dreyling, Miss Freeman, and Mary Ann Freeman (Mrs. Peter Johnson) are
related and possibly sisters. Daughters the ages of Theresa and Mary Ann
would fit into the family listed under Miss Freeman. Both Theresa and
Mary Ann were married before 1860. They were all born in Hanover and the
Johnson household has a Jane Freeman listed that would also fit into the
list of children.)
