Amanda was one of the hardy young women who survived the Forlorn Hope. On December 16, 1846, she left her daughter Harriet with the Graves family and set out for help. ...

Amanda died giving birth to her son Edward. William, left with three other children to tend, could not cope with a newborn, so Edward spent the first several years of his life with the attending physician and his wife, taking their name, "Johnson," as his middle name in gratitude.
