Nelson, the eldest son, bought a farm in 1841, of 100 acres Lot 31, Range 3, in East Hawkesbury. He was married 1st January, 1846, to Emily McNally of West Hawkesbury. He has always declined public office, with the exception of that of School Trustee, in which he has served different times. Though well advanced in years, his well preserved body and clear intellect show the result of an industrious and moral life. He has four sons and five daughters.
