Karen, I have in my possession a copy of "Record of Interments, Oak Grove Cemetery, Jerseyville, Ill.", which shows James Nelson was buried in Oak Grove Cemetery in Section 13, Lot 18, Lot Book Page No. 359, Grave No. 1, and nearest relative or friend listed is "Mrs. Dr. DuHadway." Listed below Nelson, James, is Mrs. Susan M. Nelson, Late Residence, Jerseyville, Age 79 years, 2 months, 26 days, Female, Married, Death Date April 24, 1890. She was buried April 25, 1890, Section 13, Lot 18, Lot Book Page 359, Grave No. 2, and the nearest relative or friend listed is Mrs. Dr. DuHadway. The place of birth for both James and Susan M. is left blank, and all other information [place of birth, late residence, age, date of death] for James is blank except the columns indicating he was male and married.

Another hand has written in "James". This is an old ledger, as the dates do not seem to extend beyond 1906. Probably following this one, there are one or two more ledgers listing Oak Grove Cemetery interments, but this is the only ledger of which I have a copy. Hope above information helps you. I do not find Alonzo and/or Sarah Dowall Nelson listed in this ledger. Regards. Jean Landon Wallace
