Elsie and Glen and Their Sons

Thanks to another Chester descendant, we now have a Nelson family photograph.

2017-12-15. Elsie and Glen Nelson with Melvin, Robert, and Delmer

Elsie (Henning) and Glen Nelson are in back. Their sons are, left to right, Melvin, Robert and Delmer. (The owner of this photograph is descended from Delmer.)

We don't have a date or a location for the photo. Robert was born in September 1922 and here I'd say he looks approximately nine years old, so we can estimate its date at roughly 1931. The style of Elsie's dress looks consistent with that estimate.

I can see some resemblance between Glen and his brother Owen.

Wonder if they were any relation to Lloyden and Inez Nelson, my neighbors at 524 N Hobart Rd.

Good question. I don't know the answer.
