Perpetual Emigrating Fund records indicate the Heder family traveled to Utah in 1863. His name is Erik Gustaf Olofsson in the Swedish baptism record, but later in life he used the surname of "Heder," which appears in the 1910 Utah census and on his gravestone. Millcreek erroneously list birth date as 5 January 1845 at the time of a rebaptism on 13 November 1864.

The family sailed to America in 1863 on the ship B. S. Kimball.
