  • The Leithead journal indicates Isaac Behunin's traveling group consisted of 11 individuals. It is likely those traveling with him were his wife and children who appear in his household in the 1850 Utah census taken just 8 months later, prior to the 1851 emigration season.

    Her given name is listed as "Almina" in the 1850 Utah census.
