John Foster Bennett

John traveled with his parents (Maria and Richard Bennett) and grandparents (William and Ann Foster), along with other family members. They all traveled overseas on the ship Arkwright, arriving in New York on 6 July 1866. Though only the heads of household are listed on the overland company's record (William Foster, in this case), the number of adult rations of food purchased by William, is a good indication that all of the family members that made the trip by sea, also traveled together in the overland company.
