Biography

Ransom is NOT a Centenarian. The 1870 & 1880 census records says he was born abt 1868. His 1900 census says May 1871, his 1910 census says 1860. He used a false dob of 1844 later in life to appear older. He was in fact abt 83 years old when he died, not 106 as claimed on his death certificate.

Married: Sarah E "Sally" Hancock 1868 – 1943

Children: Luther Nichols 1881 – 1936, Florence Nichols 1884 – 1963, Alfred Nichols 1892 – 1959, Nancy Nichols 1894 – 1989

-NOTE: Some family trees show a daughter named Ida Alice Nichols-Pierce, but she was born in 1883, and Ransom would have been only 15 at the time. I do not think he is her father.

Ransom was born in 1868. He passed away in 1947. ^[1]
