  • The Frisby family arrived in New York on 6 July 1866 via the ship The Arkwright. Though the company records only list the heads of household, it is recorded that Lorenzo's father, William, purchased 5 1/2 adult food rations for the overland journey. The PEF collection confirms which members of the family these rations were purchased for.
