My great great-grandmother, Elsie Harvey, 1st m: Frank Clark and was widowed at a young age. Nelson had been married to Elsie's first cousin, Carrie Harvey. Elsie and Nelson lost their respective spouses within a few months of one another and married about a year and a half later. Nelson and 1st wife Carrie had two sons, Vern & Alvah. Nelson's parents were Norman and Charlotte.
