I am wondering what connection he may have to my ancestors since he signed their marriage certificate in 1874. >> Celeste, John Hiram "Jack" NICHOLSON born in 1832 married my first cousin, four generations removed, Elizabeth E. "Bettie" Williams. My records show that he was a Confederate soldier. He was a 1st Lt., captured at Kelly's Ford, sent to Old Capitol Prison then to Johnson's Island and released 7 Feb. 1865. I have no record of date of marriage. I do have information on the ancestors of Bettie Williams
