Peter Nielsen

The Nielsen family arrived in New York on 16 July 1866 via the ship Kenilworth. As head of household, only Peter's name is listed on the overland company roster. However, his PEF record indicates that he borrowed enough to pay for passage for six adults (or in his case, two adults and several children), which indicates that his family, who were with him on the ship, continued with him across the plains in the Scott company.
