Evidence from census and church ordinance records proves that the Riley family traveled to Utah in 1851. They appear on the 1850 Iowa census, and the first documentation to place them in Utah is a church ordinance performed in December 1851. Further research is needed to determine the name of the company they traveled with.

Her birth and death dates are confirmed by the inscription on her gravestone in California, USA, which shows her name as "Charity Cornwell."
