Research notes for Nelson

DOB based on 1900 census. I think it's close.
Previous wife was Mary. One known child with her -- Rosanne.

Find-a-Grave member TRB sent an edit to Nelson's listing. Req. change to DOB to 9 Oct 1851. Says info came from daughter of Nelson's 1st child, Rosanne. No official docs. I doesn't fit with MOST census records, but certainly later year info would fit this. I'm putting here as a note of saying, "I don't know."
