Hello Robert,
Welcome to this site!!
Actually, I do not yet know who Franklin's parents were. However, I am currently going through the 1880 Harrison County Census. I am making a note of every NELSON on the film. And most of them are matches to some Bible records that Kimberly Nuffer sent to me.
If it weren't for people like Kimberly, I couldn't be taking this research further.
However, I would like to take it backwards also.
Now, another thing that has peaked my interest is your middle name! MILES!
My aunt told me that she visited with some cousins in Corydon, In. in the 1950's and she stayed with a Cecil and Clara (Bence) Miles. They had a son named Hurst Miles who married a gal named Olive. This is all she can remember.
Can you fill in the blanks at all there?
If you can would you please email me????
Ask your grandmother.
My auntie says she took them all to the river and they all went swimming! That would be just like her. I guess the summers there are pretty humid!
How are you related to Ambrosia and Franklin?
Franklin was born in New York.
