Mary Mills

The Yates family (Richard and Mary Yates, and their infant son, Thomas) 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, the record indicates that Richard purchased 2 1/2 adult food rations, indicating that his wife and son continued on with him on the overland journey as well.

Birth month and year confirmed by 1900 census.
