BIRTH: also known as FREED/FROYD or Elise Frocid and Elsa Jonsson; also known as Elsa FROJDATTER.

MARRIAGE: Lars and Elsa wanted to get married, but friends, family, and the missionaries discouraged it because Lars was in frail health. They may have married in Liverpool, on the ship, or at Albany NY before starting west. The wagon train was led by Andrew Ole ANDERSON, his first of many trips leading saints west. During the trip he befriended Lars and Elsa. After Lars' death, Andrew provided food for the widow and children. On 22 May 1871 Elsa became Andrew's second wife. They were married in the Endowment House for time, and Elsa was sealed to Lars the same day.

DEATH: buried in Ephraim, Sanpete UT.
