Who was that “little colored girl"?
To all:

Captain Henry W. Smith, who arrested “all suspicious personages” in Surratt’s house on Monday, 17 April 1865 later declared: “We found Mrs. (Mary) Surratt, Miss (Anna) Surratt, Miss Fitzpatrick, Miss Jenkins, a little colored girl asleep on the floor in the back room, and downstairs a colored woman who said her name was Susan (= Susan Ann Mahoney), and a man, she said, was her husband (Samuel Jackson? – they married April 28, 1865).

Who knows who was that “little colored girl asleep on the floor?”

Thanks.
