ANDERSSON, BENSON, NELSON, RUNDQUIST, THURSTENSON posted by Joe E. Thurstenson on Wednesday, November 26, 2008: I find a tombstone in Rock Creek Grace Lutheran Cemetery for Isaac Nelson, birth unknown, death Jan 7, 1896 and he was 85 years old. Can anyone give me any clues as to who this person was. My GG Grandfather was Isaac Nelson and he and his wife Christina (Lena Stina) were found in the 1880 census for Cummings twp, Cummings County, Nebraska. I have not been able to find any trace of them since that census and don't know when and where they died or are burried. No family records contain information on them. This gravestone is near the area of the 1880 census mentioned so catches my attention.
