• Jens Bunderson's brother, Sjunne Bunderson, traveled in the John Smith Company. Jens is not included on the company list of immigrants published in Deseret News. Family tradition states that he traveled in the Smith company with his brother, but there is a lack of sufficient evidence to prove this claim. Further evidence is needed.

  On the 1864 Monarch of the Sea manifest, his name is written "Jons Bondesson." His birth date and death date are confirmed by Idaho obituary records.
