Also no marriage listed at Ancestry.Com or LDS website. There are several James Nelsons on the Georgia death index at Ancestry.Com, but no James E Nelson that appears to be yours. The other thing is that I can't find Cross or Nelson on a census either. I've not been able to find Harriett after the 1910 census where she is still living at home. Do you have her full name or nickname? There was a J J Holder from Dodge County who died during WW I, is that James Austin's father. I check for an orbit for James Austin Holder, but didn't find one listed in Tad Evans's Dodge County Newspaper Clipping books, nor could I find anything on Cross or Nelson. I also checked the Dodge County Cemetery book. There I found James Austin Holder and his wife, but no Cross or Nelson, husbands of Harriett. Bernice

I do hope I won't confuse anyone more here - but just happened to catch my eye in the List note: "Cobb and Herman Dykes were killed Jan 1929 when their truck was struck by by a train at a grade crossing in near Gresston. Cobb was survied by wife, Mattie Mullis Dykes and adopted dau Louise Cross, 6 yrs old and dau Mrs Inez Howell." Wonder this may have been Mrs. Inex HOWELL who lived around the corner from me in Americus, Sumter Co, GA while I was growing up. If so, her dau was mar to a JONES & she had a Granddau named Mary JONES. Mrs HOWELL & Mrs. JONES ran the lunchroom at our Junior High School & their granddau Mary was a year younger than me. MY maiden name is HOWELL, but I've never known of any relation to Mrs. HOWELL - just remember her from our neighborhood, school & the granddau..... My HOWELLs were from NC to South GA in the Milltown, Berrien Co, GA area - now named Lakeland, Lanier Co, GA. Also possibly connected to HOWELLs in Lowndes Co, GA. But in Dodge Co - my husb's STUDSTILLs plus more lines were all in that area!!! Sarah Howell Studstill
