Findagrave quotes Samuel Courtright Wheeler as stating that Elisha's parents are Johannes and Margaretha. Courtright List also has those parents.
     The Courtright List has Margaret only married once, to James Santee. The PALUZERN List has both marriages.
     As of now, it is unclear, whether Elisha, son of Aaron, had a daughter Margaret, although PALUZERN List seems to think that is right.3,4,2 Name variation: Margaret Kortright.5 Married name: Santee. Married name: Seely.
