Barbara traveled with her children, George and Jane, arriving in the United States in 1863. Due to lack of funds, she sent her daughter Jane on ahead to the Valley that year. She and George remained in New York until the following year, when they traveled with the Rawlins Company. The family is seen together again in the Payson Ward records at the time of a rebaptism for the children on 6 May 1865. They are listed under the name of their new step-father, Charles Long. Later, Barbara married again and is seen in census records, located in the household of her husband, John Myers.
