  • Margaret arrived in New Orleans on 25 April 1853 via the ship International. The first documentation to place her in the Valley is her marriage in February of 1854, which was prior to that year's emigration season. Further research is needed to identify the name of the company with which she traveled.

    The British Mission Record, as found in Mormon Migration, and death records spell her surname as "Weston" or "Wiston."

Company Unknown (1853)
