In Reply to: NELS CHRISTIAN NELSON DOCTOR CHEYENNE WYOMING 1900 - 1950 by Michele Molina of 3489

Gertrude was 2nd wife.
Checking the old Wyoming newspapers
http://www.wyonewspapers.org/

Nels C. Nelson and Ella (maiden name not given) divorced in Dec 1909, married 15 years, 4 children.

The newspapers said Nels and Gertrude were married in Colorado.

Children with Ella
Don O. b. Sep 1899
Doris, about 1901
Maurine b. about 1903, teacher in Cheyenne, poss. never married?
Edward? about 1905

The 1910 index for Cheyenne is messed up, I can only see text and not image.
Nels is listed as head
Don
Doris
Maurine
no Edward... do you think he went with mother after Div.?

1920 Cheyenne
children at home
Nels C, 47, b. SD, parents b. Den, physician
Gertrude, 39, b.Oh
Don, 20 b. Neb
Maurine, 17, b. Neb
Edward, 15, Neb
children with Gertrude
John S, 2yr 1 mo, b.Wy
Ida J, 4mo, b. Wy

Nels parents were Peter and Andrea, came to US from Denmark about 1859. Nels siblings... Aaron, Peter, Theodore, Olena, Ida, William

Good luck,
Judy
