The Fowler family traveled from England to the Salt Lake Valley in 1863. Their family included William and Ellen Bradshaw, and their children, Harriet Adeline, Henry Ammon, and Florence Ellen.

The Fowlers sailed from London on “The Amazon” at the beginning of June. They arrived in New York on 18 July 1863. They then left from New York and eventually made it to Florence, Nebraska, where they prepared for their travels and joined the Daniel D. McArthur Company in 1863.
