  • The Tivoli Gardens article in the Salt Lake Tribune, states that Olof has been in Salt Lake City for 19 years, which proves that he arrived in 1862.  Further research is needed to determine the name of the pioneer company he traveled to Utah with.

    He was rebaptized in Salt Lake City on 6 November 1862 according to information in the record of members of the Salt Lake 13th Ward.
