Mormon Pioneer Overland Travel, 1847–1868
Bryner, Susannah

Birth Date: ca. 1790
Death Date: 4 Oct. 1856
Gender: Female
Age: 66
Company: John A. Hunt Company (1856)

Pioneer Information:
She was a single woman from Switzerland. The company journal recorded her age at death as 64. Her surname was spelled "Briner" on the roster and "Bruner" in the company journal. It is puzzling to also find a "Susannah Bruner" listed on the McArthur roster. It is probably the same person.
