I've "rescued" an old photograph of Bernice Marie NELSON which was taken at
the M. V. Board Studio in Fremont, Washington. The photograph appears to
have been taken in the early 1900's with Bernice noted as 6 months and 7 1/4
lbs. at the time the photograph was taken. Based on limited research I was
able to locate the following information regarding Bernice and her family:
Bernice Marie NELSON was b. 6 Mar 1906 in Mount Vernon, WA to parents John
C. NELSON (b. 27 Mar 1862 in Big Krasfaberggard, Sweden) and Ida Maria
NORRBY (b. 28 Apr 1865 in Sweden). Bernice married Henry William TJERSLAND
(b. 11 Mar 1902 in Mount Vernon, WA) and together they had one son, John
Benjamin TJERSLAND. Bernice married a second time to Albert Frank CLARK (b.
9 Jun 1892) and they had two children, Gary Lee CLARK and Deanna Marie CLARK
both born in Auburn, NE.
Bernice NELSON CLARK died in Mount Vernon, WA in 1988 and is buried in La
Conner, WA.
I am hoping to locate someone from Bernice's family so that this wonderful
old photograph can be returned to their care. If you are a member of this
family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me.
Thanks,
Shelley
