Edmund Rhett (yes!)
Llewellyn Fremont (Duncan Ingraham's villain)

William Cannon (the hero in Duncan Ingraham's sequel)

Jesse Cannon sounds like an outlaw, lol!
At first I misread Abednigo Downing as "Abednigo Drowning" and I thought, "Well, that's a new take on the Bible story...!"
I like Ada Florence, and Damaris Miranda (though I think Sarah was a bit superfluous).
