There is an A G Nelson in Hempfield Twp. in 1900. Nelson, A.G., born May 1853, age 47, married 11 years, born Sweden as were his parents, immigrated 1883, lived in the US for 17 years, was naturalized and was a coal miner, could read, could write and could speak English. Mary, wife, b. June 1861, age 38, in the US for 11 years, married 11 years, 4 children, 4 children living, born Sweden as were her parents, immigrated 1889, in US 11 years, could read, write and speak English. The children were all born in PA. Yudith, Oct. 1889, age 10 George, July 1891, age 8 Ester, Aug 1893, age 6 Olga, Oct 1895, age 4 Also in the 1900 census were an A E Nelson from Greensburg, Ward 5 and an Adolf Nelson in Jeannette, Ward 3. What was your Mother or Father's name? That would make things easier to match up. The reason I am saying this is because an Andrew Nelson, wife Mary, daughter Olga show up in 1920 which means the A G Nelson above is probably Andrew and then not your grandfather. The Adolph (immigrated 1888) in Jeannette was married to Josephine and the A E Nelson in Greensburg was married to Annie. Any little tidbit would make it easier to to pinpoint the correct family.
