Left Liverpool, Lancashire, England on 23 March 1856 aboard the ship Enoch Train.
Arrived in Boston, Suffolk, Massachuetts, United States on 1 May 1856.

It can be seen in the 1880 U.S. Census that Archibald was a polligamist, with another wife living next door. We were able to prove that these two women (Crene and Caroline) were his wives by going to FindaGrave.com and finding their headstone gravemarkers.
