Hello,
I am the great granddaughter of Della Alice Sells.Here is the information I have.
Della Alice Sells was born on June 20, 1890 in Cozad, Dawson, Nebraska to Benjamin Sells and Sylvia Nunnamaker (I haven't confirmed the spelling of Nunnamaker).
Della married my grandfather, Roy Albert Craig on April 15, 1908 in Lexington, Dawson, Nebraska.
Together they had:
A son, my grandfather, Harold Albert Craig born March 28, 1917
A daughter, Edith Evelyn Craig born May 16, 1911
A daughter, Ruth Craig born September 12, 1913
A daughter, Sylvia Lucille Craig born August 29, 1909
A daughter, Olletta Wanda Craig born December 28, 1919
Olletta's name has been spelled in many ways so I do know now the proper way it is on her birth certificate.On some family pictures it was written as Aleda.
Della and Roy divorced and she married a Mr. Vetter.Family members will be able to give me his first name but I do not have it written in my records at this time.
Della died on August 28, 1972 in North Platte, Lincoln, Nebraska and is buried at Floral Lawns Memorial Gardens, North Platte, Lincoln, Nebraska.Here is a link to her burial information including a picture of her headstone. http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=Vetter&GSbyrel=all&GSdy=1972&GSdyrel=in&GSob=n&GRid=68720821&df=all&http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=Vetter&GSbyrel=all&GSdy=1972&GSdyrel=in&GSob=n&GRid=68720821&df=all&
Please let me know if there is anything else you are looking for.I emailed you directly as well and the email was not current.If you have information or pictures I would love it if you could share them with me.
What is your relationship to Della?
Thank you,
Diane
