    Her surname is listed as "Pedersen" in the Scandinavian Mission records.

    Although documentation is scant, she likely traveled in the same company as her parents and siblings. She had married just prior to setting out for Utah. Her surname is recorded as "Pedersen" on the ship passenger list.
