  • Notes 
    • Mentioned in father-in-law's will that was written in 1843.
      Believe this might be to avoid having to give the money to her husband which would then have gone to pay his debts.
    • According to an email from Anne Harris-Piccoli of New York in April 2013, Milcah was known in the family as Amelia
