Swen was baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on 14 September 1856. He immigrated to America in September of 1866. His occupations were listed as miner, farmer, wood turner, and day laborer.
While residing in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County, Utah, Swen accepted a mission call to Scandinavia. He arrived in Copenhagen on 1 November 1884 and was assigned to labor in the Göteborg Conference. He remained in the mission field until 21 June 1886, when he boarded the steamer Otto to begin his journey home (see Jenson, History of the Scandinavian Mission, 282-83, 297).
He returned to the Salt Lake Valley. Swen died in 1928 at the home of his son in Midvale, Salt Lake County, at age eighty-eight following a stroke of paralysis (see “Utah Pioneer of 1866 Dies at Home of Son,” Deseret News, 26 January 1928). He was survived by three sons. Med vänlig hälsning Maini
