can someone tell me what county Nelson, NY is in? Is there really such a place??

Town of Nelson, NY Christabell J Westcott, Town Clerk (as of 1998) 4085 Nelson Road Cazenovia NY 13035 315-655-8582 Population 1892 County of Madison Towns do not show up on road atlases. Look for the village of Cazenovia, SouthEast of the city of Syracuse. Go East from Cazenovia about 4 miles on US route 20. Nelson is on the road atlas, but there is no listing for a village of Nelson, and the population of the town of Nelson is low, so the Nelson on the map must be a hamlet. Grid EJ-6 on the (2001) Eastern New York page of the Rand McNally road atlas (no serious genealogist should be without one). Marty Irons
