Notes for Margaretha (Spouse 1)

She sailed with her parents and five of her siblings from Le Havre, France on the ship “Waverly,” arriving in New York, New York on August 28, 1847.
The findagrave web site does not identify her except as the wife of Nikolaus Kelling. However her tombstone appears to give 1856 as the year of her death, agreeing with the death year of Margaretha Diederich Kelling.
Notes for Anna Maria (Spouse 2)

She apparently came to Ridgeville in 1856 with her brother John and her sister Gertrud. The cemetery inscription in St. Teresa of Avila Cemetery in Sheffield gives her month of death as April 1873 and her age at death as 38 years, 10 months, 25 days.
Notes for Esther Kunigunda (Spouse 3)
