Elizabeth Willoughby Staff
Elizabeth and Susannah sailed to America in 1866 on the ship American Congress. Their names are listed as follows: Willoughby Green, widow, age 59, and Susannah Green, spinster, age 22.
Pioneer company records only list Elizabeth as head of household. However, the notation showing she purchased 2 adult food rations indicate her daughter was with her during this part of the journey as well. PEF records also confirm Susannah made the trip.
PEF and overland company and ship records all list her under the given name of "Willoughby."
