I don't know if this fits in anywhere, but I have had a brick wall with a Nicholson. My gr gr grandmother was Sarah Nicholson daughter of Arneson and Nicholson. Sarah "Sally" married a Smith (born about 1800)and had several children...I think about 7. She later married a Lingerfelt and lived in Cherokee NC around Hanging Dog. She lived to be 121 years old and died in Polk Co TN while living with her grandson FRank Smith. She had a daughter Margaret who was a midwife. She had another daughter (Catherine I think). This daughter is the mother of my gr grandmother Sarah Charlsie Taylor who married Alford Levi Graham and lived in Tellico Plains TN. I have never seen Arneson in a census record or been able to find out anymore about him. His name was on her death certificate in Polk Co TN.
