        • Elizabeth and her husband, Christian, arrived in New York on 11 June 1866 via the ship The Caroline. Although Thompson company records only list Christian, as head of household, the notation that he purchased two adult food rations indicates that Elizabeth was with him for that part of the journey as well.

          The surname is spelled "Schone" on the ship manifest.

          Birth and death dates are confirmed by her headstone.
