David Swyers was a mortgage broker and financial agent. Herman Babbin was a clerk at a broker office.

Jill Johnson told about Irisa Collins:
I found this by chance as her name is writen as 'Trisa' and it states she comes from 'Winsbury!' I know she was in service and the family was foreign which all adds up and I gather it was her accent why they got the spelling wrong!
