• Harriet Bradshaw Burton and her children sailed to America in 1850 on the ship Hartley. John, One of her sons died on the way.  She and her surviving children remained in Winter Quarters for a time.

  A secondary source says that she and her family crossed the plains with an "Independent Company" headed by Mark Hall, arriving in Salt Lake City in 1851.  Actually, Mark Hall was Captain of the first ten in the Benjamin Gardner Company of 1852. Harriet is incorrectly identified as "Harriett Parker" in the Presiding Bishopric immigrant location committee minutes. 

  At the time of the 1860 federal census of Utah Harriet was living in the household of Joseph Race of Tooele (she had married Race.)
