Mary Kegley's books "Adventures on western waters " might have some information.
I am looking for a primary source which proves that this Margaret Peters, wife of Charles Walker, is indeed the daughter of Johann Jacob Peters, as stated here and in many other places. If anybody could point me to such a source, it would be much appreciated. Thanks.
