OLEF NEILSON (NILSSON) AND KJERSTI EKDAHL PEHRSDATTER NILSSON ~~~ PIONEERS OF THE MONTH ~ MAY 2024

 

 

The life story was written By Norma Neilson Kotter, granddaughter of Olef and Mary Neilson.

Olef Neilson (Nilsson) was born ,

5 February 1834 in Southern Sweden, the son of Nils and Kjersti Ekdahl (Pehrsdatter) Nilsson. He was born in Halmstad Malmohus, Skane, Sweden. Another source says he was born at Stroo. (Norma writes that she found out from the Genealogical Library that Sweden is divided into provinces, counties, then cities and towns, parishes and sometimes even the farm where they lived may be listed as the birthplace. In the case of the birthplace of Olef Neilson, Halmstad is the town, Malmohus is the county and Skane is the province. They told her that Stroo may be either the farm or the parish.)

 Kjersti was born 7, September 1829

Nils and Kjersti had another little son, Per, born August 18, 1863 in Sirekopinge, which is just a few miles southwest of Halmstad. That family moved from Stroo to Sirokopinge in 1862 and lived there until 1864, at number 9 (which was their address). It says they had a little croft, which is a piece of land or small farm which they rented or leased. In April 1864, Nils, Kjersti and their two little boys emigrated to America. They sailed from England on April 28th, 1864 on the ship "Monarch of the Sea". The passenger list shows Nils, age 30, Kjersti, his wife, age 35, Olef, age 3 and Per, age (8 months). The passenger list shows that Per died on the voyage on May 19th. They arrived in Sanpete County, territory Utah. Nils farmed some land there and Olef worked with him and as he grew older, got some land and some sheep of his own. Nils and Kjersti had five more children, all born in Mt. Pleasant; territory Utah. 

Nils was born July 17, 1865; 

Hulda Christine on May 20, 1872, 

and John on October 6, 1876. 

We have listed James and Blenda but we have no dates of birth or death on them. There may also have been another son, Andrew.
