There are a group of Researchers working on Nelsons from PA, VA, KY and MO. We have slowed down on our research but are trying to post our findings and comments on this page: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:NELSON_GROUP_REPOSITORY. My line of Nelsons is probably from Pennsylvania then from Scott Co KY and moved to Missouri in 1824.

Our family tradition traces our ancestry back to a supposed twin daughter of Horatio Nelson and emma hamilton. Horatia is the acknowledged daughter but there is some evidence of a twin named Emma Hamilton as well. Andrew st clair nelson comes to australia and he is directly from this line. May have been called Andrew Gibson initially but allowed to use the Nelson surname as a descendant.
