FUNERALS
Services for Andrew Peter Hanson, Friday, 2 p.m., at Masonic temple. Mr. Hanson was 63 years of age. Came to Utah when 17 years of age. Resident of Salt Lake since 1890. Mining engineer. Survived by his widow, one son and one daughter.
Corrections to funeral notice:
Gravestone marker is incorrect regarding birth year (1858). It was actually 1859 as it is on Denmark birth record. He was actually 31 years of age when he arrived in Salt Lake in 1890. He was also a civil engineer. (C Gibb Grove, great granddaughter)
"Andrew was a civil and mining engineer. As a deputy U.S. Surveyor, he surveyed parts of the boundary lines of Utah, Arizona, and Wyoming. He was engaged in mining in the Silverton District of Colorado, where he plotted the route of the railroad. He and his wife moved to Salt Lake City in 1890. There he was on the commission that selected the site of the Capitol Building and was consulting engineer for much of the public work. He was a member of the Masons and other Lodges and civic organizations."
- from the remembrances of Lena Maude Giers Bangs
Andrew Hanson was one of the prominent gentiles of Salt Lake City. He was on the committee that chose the site of the capitol. He was the consulting engineer on many of the early city improvements, in particular the sanitary improvements. He had a large clientele catering to the mining industry. His son is a mining engineer and asst. superintendent of the largest gold mine in the state.
