I am not related to the following persons.

In the 11 May 1885 issue of the New York Times in a column headed City and Suburban News on page 5 was the following brief:
"The Norwegian bark Nicolay H. Kuntzon arrived yesterday from Victoria, Brazil, under the command of Chief Officer JOHNSEN, who reported that Capt. T.E. PETERSEN died on April 6 and was buried at sea. Capt. PETERSEN had been suffering from a cancer in the stomach since January. He was an experienced navigator, an is highly spoken of by his agents and the Norwegian shipmasters now in port who knew him."
