Karen Margrethe Pedersen
She was a single woman who came to America in 1868 on the ship Emerald Isle.
Her birth and death dates are confirmed by the inscription on her gravestone, which shows her surname as "Christiansen." Her death certificate also confirms her death date, but incorrectly shows her surname as "Christensen."
