Notes

The exact date of Louisa's wedding isn't known; her sister Eliza says that she was married on June 24, 1854, and died three weeks later. Her brother Charles, on the other hand, recorded her death date as June 28th, 1854 - if her wedding happened three weeks prior, that would put it around June 7th.
