  As it states in the Manuscript History of the voyage of the ship Forest Monarch, Johanne Christensen married Frederick Jensen on April 3, 1853. Apparently after they arrived in Ephraim, Utah, Frederick added the last name of Holst to his name.by which he was known. Monday, March 7, 1853. In the morning we could see the land of America. We came into the Mississippi River and sailed up it until about 4 o’clock in the afternoon, when we anchored. Shortly after, Elder Forsgren went ashore to put in order the necessary preparations for the rest of our journey. Monday, March 14, 1853 Shortly after noon two tugboats came and towed us until in the evening, when anchor was dropped. It rained heavily today. Tuesday, March 15, 1853 We again got underway, towed by the two tugboats, and continued until late forenoon, when the tugboats left us. In the afternoon we got under way, towed by one tugboat. Saturday, Mar. 19. All of our belongings were brought on board a steamship to which we were transferred, and at 4 o’clock in the afternoon we sailed for St. Louis. It was a good ship. Tuesday, Mar. 29. In the afternoon we arrived at St. Louis. The blessings of God were over us and all were well. Wednesday, Mar. 30. We left the ship, and went into the town to a place which had been prepared for us,--this for the sake of our health, as it was not wise to go up the Missouri River. Sunday, April 3, 1853 A meeting was held this afternoon, which was opened with prayer by Elder Chr. Christiansen. Elder J. E. Forsgren spoke a few words, and then announced that there were three couples who wished to enter into the bonds of marriage. It was unanimously sustained by the congregation. The three couples were: Sören Olesen and Berthe Pedersen,Gerhardt Jensen and Else Marie Christensen, Frederick Jensen and Johanne Christensen. Elder Forsgren next performed the ceremony. The meeting was closed with song and prayer by Elder Forsgren. You can read more about this journey in BIB:[Manuscript history of the John H. Forsgren Emigrating Company] Translated from Danish.
