Surname: NEILSON, NIELSON, NELSON
I am looking for information on my Grandfather's family. Andrew
Christian Neilson d. about 1929
and wife Mary M. Schmidt d. about 1924 both from Denmark settled in the
Steamboat Valley,
Washoe Co. NV prior to 1880. There they were Ranchers and raised a large
family. Their son,
my Grandfather Albert Andrew was born April 25, 1887 and died Aug. 9,
1961, 9 years prior to
my birth. He was 25 years older than my Grandmother. I would like to
find information on his
parents and sibblings. The children of Andrew and Mary were:Alice who
was a Red Cross nurse
in World War I and m. Pyne Sterling, Carrie, Margaret who m. a Charles
Higby/Higley,Henry
C.b.1877, Christine b. 1879 M. Ulysses Hanson, George A. b.
1881,Neils/Nels born 1883 wife
Nellie?,Walter A. b. 1885, Ervin Francis b. 1895, Albert Andrew b. 1887
m. Jessie
Waggy-Brockway about 1939 and died 1961. There may have also been
another son named
Nelf. My Grandfather Albert Neilson is buried at Mountain View and I
think some of the other
family may be there to. Thank you for any help or responses.
