Sources:
This entire entry is based entirely on the research of others. There are no original sources. I regard it as entirely speculative and needs far more research.
- Research on Rootsweb.com and familysearch.com
- Information from the web site of another researcher, Greg Derrell Freese. I have no original sources for any of this and have not independently confirmed this research. Mr. Freese appears to be a direct descendent.
* The only other researcher that provides a name for Johan Christian's parents says they were Christian Dracker and Anna ___ not "Joseph Dracker and Margaretha Grunsfelder". Neither source provides any citation for its assertion. I went with Joseph and Margaretha since that entry provided additional information (date of death, names of other children, father's name) that indicate that source had more information. No guarantee that either one is really correct.
