Thank you for the Olson works

Thank you very much for your uploads of the Olson works. Tack så mycket för uppladdningarna! Jag noterar att Olsons dödsår anges som 1916 i dokumenten från ÅAB och i fi:Hilda Olson, medan du uppgav 1915 i helpdesk-diskussionen. Var det senare ett misstag? –LPfi (talk) 19:06, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

Hi! No, in fact the year 1916 is wrong. A person called Torkel Hellström did research on Olson in the late 1930s and he recorded the year of death as 1916, and then this one stuck. I went through he Finnish National Library's archive and found several newspaper clippings that had Olson's obituary or death notice. All these were published in the year 1915.
