Hi Magnus, weird. I think you are correct on Valdimar dying young.
Unfortunately they miss all the Icelandic census years, born after 1870 and in Canada before 1880. No 1880 Canada Census, 1891 is the closest to their arrival. Don't know what to say about Karl, nothing else on him, and nothing on Valdimar I can find in Canada including death records.
I have records for Benedikt, Holmfridur, and Siqurbjorn entering Canada in 1879.
Sigurtog may be Sigurbjorg, The 1901 census in Canada places her as born 1878, 22 years old, married to Sigurdur Kristjanson born 1880 in Iceland.
Siqurbjorn Kristjansonabt 1876 (15 in 1891)
Sigurtog Kristjansdottirabt 1878 (13 in 1891)
Karl Kristjansonabt 1883 (8 in 1891)
Valdimar BENEDIKTSSON b. abt 1874? (would be 17 in 1891)
Find this immigration record, same ship as Benedikt, Holmfridur, and Siqurbjorn, although different page:
