Becker, John: Listed as Claus Becker on ship manifest, roster and widow's pension application.
Beckman, Henry: Census lists Dorothea as "widow of Beckman, Henry J." Henry Beckman Sr
died in 1875, but she filed a pension application in 1882 listing herself as the dependant mother
of Henry Beckman, indicating it was their son Henry Jr b. 1843 who served in the Home Guards.
Cordes, Henry: Not on roster, and widow's pension application 1890 apparently not approved.
Hebel, Phillip and Louisa: In 1894, Louisa filed a widow's pension application listing deceased
husband Diedrich Thies. No pension was awarded, and neither Phillip Hebel nor Diedrich Thies
are on the unit's rosters. Morgan County lists the marriage 15 May 1864 of Mrs Louisa Hebel
to Christopher Brase, and 10 May 1877 that of Mrs Louisa Brase to Diedrich Thies.
