John M. Nelson

The 1900 census for Stubbs & Union twnshps, Independence Co. Ark shows a Fannie Nelson (b. oct 1882) living with Moses Nelson family shown as daughter-in-law and as a widow. Apparenlty, Fannie and John Nelson married in 1898 and he died within the next two years. Judging from the other errors in census reporting, it is not a stretch to imagine getting birth months of Oct and Dec mixed.
