Found Treasure: John Nelson

abt 1920's
Found another little treasure while scanning pictures: a picture of John Nelson!  John Nelson is  my husband's great-great grandfather.  John Nelson was born in June 1862 in Sweden to Nils Johnson & Olivill Mudgoen.  He married his first wife Bertha Anderson in 1888 in Traverse City, Michigan.  They had three children together Olive, Edith and Albert.  Bertha died in 1894 and John remarried in 1900 to Henrietta Hansen.  Together they had an additional 6 children Nels, Lester, Leslie, Leslie, Harold, and Leonard.  John died sometime after 1930.
