• The Summers family arrived in New York on 6 June 1866 via the ship John Bright. As head of household, only Richard's name is listed on the overland company roster. However, the record shows that he purchased three adult food rations for that portion of the journey, which indicates that his family, who was with him on the ship, continued with him across the plains in the Scott company.
