Surnames: Nelson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/ABB.2ACE/3412 Message Board Post: I am looking for the family of John Nelson, born between June and September, 1807 somewhere in Kentucky. I do not know his father’s first name, but his mother may have been Catharine. He might also have had a brother named Solomon. By 1850, he had moved to Hendricks County, Indiana with Nancy (wife?) and John (son?). He married again in 1865, to Mary Ann Lipe Jordan. They had two daughters, Martha and Mary. The family moved to Wilson County, Kansas in the 1870s. John died there in 1883. Any help greatly appreciated.
