PIONEER MEMORIES OF DANISH LIND FAMILY MIGRATION
In Vernal a 76 year old resident recalls the Lind family from Aalborg Denmark born 1822 and their hardships after embracing the Mormon faith. It covers Eddery Snow and George Dykes bringing the gospel, mobs attacking the Linds, and their later journey to Utah aided by Scandinavian friends and an uncle’s death fund. The Danish emigration voyage began June 3 1863 with the steamship Sfansia leaving Copenhagen and culminating in hardships aboard ships and hotels before arrival in Queenstown.
