Olof JAKOBSSON (aka Ola / Olaf Olson or Olsson) [1839-1880]

Submitted by jill on Wed, 12/29/2021 - 01:37

Known as Olof Olson in Hong Kong, he followed his elder brother, John Olson to the colony and became manager of the National Hotel in around 1879, taking over that responsibility when John wanted to retire. The Olson family has so far not discovered when Olof arrived in Hong Kong, except that it was later than his younger brother, Anders. He apparently had no issue and nothing is known about his relationships. Nor is the cause of his death known.
