hELLO!!!
I am searching for my 2nd great grandmother's ancestors and descendants. She was born Agnes Jane Paul, October 14, 1827 in Scotland. I do not, at this time know her parents names or location of her birth. She died in, we think Hesperia, Michigan on January 1904. She was married in 1854 to David Blair Nelson (also born in Scotland on Sept. 18, 1830). Their children were John Paul, James, David Blair jr., Jessie K. (Lane), Jenny P. (Kelly), and Agnes. The eldest son John Paul Nelson was county clerk in Grand Rapids. His Daughter Mary Nelson(VanBlois) was also County Clerk in Big Rapids and Grand Rapids and a noteable educator. It is said the she had her name on more county documents than any other woman of her time in in all of Michigan. David jr. is my great-grandfather and came to Texas at some point. If you would, PLEASE Contact us. I may have some more info that you might be interested in as far as John Paul and Agnes Munn are concerned. I found them in Scotland but didn't know that they came to Michigan. Please!! Please email us at [email protected]
