New Family Search has her death at 2 February 1942, which would have made her 102 at her death.  I tend to believe she died in 1924 as was shown in Hilda's Scrapbook.

Mrs. John Knudsen, Obituary

Mt. Pleasant's Oldest Lady Dead



Mrs. John Knudsen,  ninety-two  years of age, the oldest in Mt. Pleasant and affectionately known to hundreds of friends as "Grandma Knudsen", died at two o'clock this morning at the family home surrounded by all of her immediate family.



Mts. Knudsen was born in Vejle, Denmark, January 28, 1829.  She was the only one in a family of nine to embrace the Gospel taught by the Latter Day Saints.  On August 21, 1856, (27 October 1857 was the correct date) she was married to John Knudsen, and in 1864 the young couple began the long and tiresome journey to Utah.  One little daughter died on the sailing vessel and  was buried at sea.  They were in Captain Preston's Company in crossing the plains, driving an ox team and walking almost the entire distance.



Their oldest son, John Knudsen, now a deputy sheriff at Bingham, was born in Wyoming on their way to Utah.  They have made their home continuously since coming to Utah in Mt.  Pleasant.  Only two sons, John Knudsen and Andrew Knudsen of Metropolis, Nevada, and her husband survive her, also 14 grandchildren and 14 great grandchildren.  One little daughter died soon after their arrival in Mt. Pleasant, and another daughter, Mrs. Magnus G. Rolph, died thirty years ago leaving three little daughters, now Mrs. George Petersen, Mrs. J. Leo Seely, and Mrs. Vern Gundersen.  To these children Mrs. Knudsen was a mother rearing them as her own.



Funeral services will be held next Monday afternoon at two o'clock in the South Ward Chapel.  Monday will also mark the ninety-third anniversary of Mrs. Knudsen.
