Reference Notes
There is confusion over Alfred's mother. Some believe that she was Lucy Lohnes (the name used in her marriage), daughter of William Lohnes and Sophia Winter. Others believe she was Sophia Louisa Lohnes, daughter of Peter Lohnes and Susanna Elizabeth Winter. It was a case of two Lohnes brothers marrying two Winter sisters. Lucy and Louisa were cousins, and Louisa appears to have used the nickname "Lucy" adding to the confusion. Bob Hegerich makes a convincing case for Alfred's mother (and George's wife) being Louisa. See my comment attached to George's file.

See my comments on George Gerhardt's profile re Alfred's mother which may not have been this Lucinda (Lucy) but her cousin Sophia Louisa (nicknamed Lucy).
