Martha Thomas Reese
Her reminiscence indicates that she and her sister traveled together. The 1863 Amazon ship manifest erroneously lists them both with the surname of "Thomas," which was their father's middle name.
The obituary of Martha confirms that she and her sister Johanna came to Utah in 1863 with the Daniel McArthur pioneer company
