• The Christensen family arrived in New York on 16 July 1866 via the ship Kenilworth. As head of household, only Jens' name is listed on the overland company roster. However, the record shows that he purchased five and a half adult food rations for that portion of the journey, which indicates that his family, who were with him on the ship, continued with him across the plains in the Scott company.
