Looking through the Wabash rolls online, I found who the three women were:
Emma Bennet 1860
A student at the nearby Waveland Institute. According to lore and chapter records, she was initiated but no official roll number exists.
Celia Crocker 1860
A student at the nearby Waveland Institute. According to lore and chapter records, she was initiated but no official roll number exists.
"Aunt" Jennie Blair
Assumed to have been the first officially initiated woman in Beta Theta Pi. She was initiated by Tau Chapter circa 1867. While we do not show an official roll number for her, her badge is on display at the Beta Theta Pi General Fraternity headquarters in Oxford, Ohio. Beta son: John Allan Blair 1893.
