Mary Benson
Mary arrived in New York on 10 July 1863 via the ship Antarctic. Birth date confirmed by Santaquin Ward records at the time of a rebaptism on 26 July 1863. It is unlikely that the rebaptism date in Santaquin is accurate, seeing as it is only 16 days after their ship landed in New York. She married Thomas Heelis en route.
