I’ve been a regular member of the re-enactments of the battle of Germantown for the last 20 years and heard NO such stories of hauntings. Certainly not of any woman or any civilians being killed in the battle. As for dead colonials, there is a legend of 1 down the street where they were buried. but not in the house itself.
My mother lived there when she was younger and never encountered any of this. She does have stories but none of them with ghosts.
