The Thomas Beck Family arrived by ship on 5 May 1855 into Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. They are not listed in the Mormon Pioneer Overland Travel following their arrival. The only company of LDS migration groups that includes the Beck (but not members of our family) surname is the Jacob F. Secrist/Noah T. Guymon Company:
Departure: 13 June 1855 Arrival in Salt Lake Valley: 7 September 1855 Company Information: 368 individuals and 58 wagons were in the company when it began its journey from the outfitting post at Mormon Grove, Kansas (Near Atchison). Jacob F. Secrist died on July 2 and Noah T. Guymon became captain of the company.
