The Warby family sailed to the U.S. on the Julia Ann in 1854. They likely came to Utah in 1856. The first documentation to place them in Utah is the birth of a son in May 1859 which was prior to the arrival of that season's emigration. Further research is needed to narrow the year of their travel. Immigrated from Australia to California, then to Utah. In some sources the surname is spelled "Worley."
