Your Jonathan Nelson is son of James Nelson and Mercy Terrel....they married in 1816 in Caswell Co., NC....where he lived until he died in 1832.....he wrote his will in 1831, naming all his children by both wives...First wife was Mildred Brawner and she had ..Sarah Thomas, Polly Parks, Nancy Landers, Ambrose Nelson, Samuel Nelson, Barzellai Nelson, Stokely Nelson, Permelia Browning.(called Permeley in his will), ...
Believe all the rest were children of second wife, Mercy Terrell....:John Nelson , Joel Nelson, Iverson Nelson, Azariah Nelson, Jonathan Nelson and Stephen Chandler Nelson.....also believe a son named William died before James did.....can't prove it....
Also just found out that your Jonathan Nelson was already dead in 1860 census of Carroll co., Tn....his widow Martha is listed just with the kids, James C.15m, Mary Frances13,and Emily P. 10...of course it doesn't say widow ...
Jonathan's grandfather was Ambrose Nelson of Pittsylvania co., Virginia...he willed his 136 acres to son, James and he still owned it when he died in 1832...then his will said to sell it....it was located on top of White Oak Mountain......have loads on these Nelsons....Ambrose Nelson was from Baltimore co., Maryland...born in 1719....
