Robert Welch b. 1 Aug. 1821 William McCain "Mack" or "Bill" Nelson m. Eliza Ann Janes b. 15 Aug. 1824 d. 10 Oct. 1894 John was a Botanical or Herb doctor. He came to Arkansas about 1814; possibly from Alabama via Tennessee. I have since found out the John in Saline County is not my John. I believe his father was William Nelson; possibly the uncle of your John Nelson. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
