We are sure our John Nelson died before 1870 just not sure where. So far he hasnt shown up in Iowa (re WPA site) and family lore says he died on the trip out west from NY to Iowa. Not sure we will ever pinpoint his place of death. Thanks for responding. _ Diane Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
