Biography

Research Notes

The cited Nellis–Nelles books state that Mary and Arthur were married and had a child Arthur, but does not give when the elder Arthur died. Find a Grave shows that he died early, in 1862 at age 16. Pretty young to be married and have a son. Find a Grave shows that Arthur's brother John Nellis (also?) married Mary and that the younger Arthur is John's son with Mary. This raises doubt in my mind that the elder Arthur both married Mary and had a son with her.
