Olympics - Team Iceland

Background

Iceland sent one athlete to the 1908 Olympics, Jóhannes Jósefsson, a wrestler, although he marched with the Danish team at the Opening Ceremony. The country also sent two athletes to the 1912 Olympics, but did not again appear until 1936. Since that time it has never failed to be present at an Olympic Games.^[1]

This is an ongoing project to ensure that all Olympians who represented Iceland are on Wikitree.

• Connected to their family
• Connected to the Global Tree, if possible
• With profiles that have biographical, family, and sporting information
• Well sourced
