  • The Larsen family arrived in New York on 16 July 1866 via the ship Kenilworth. Only Willum's name is listed on the overland company roster as head of household. However, the record shows that he purchased three adult food rations for that portion of the journey, which indicates that the family members who were with him on the ship, continued with him across the plains in the Scott company.

    Her obituary confirms the death of her daughter on the plains.
