Nancy's siblings were:

Sarah Ona Massey
John H Massey
Lou Massey
Pleasant Albert Massey
Nancy E. was married to George W. Massey and they had 4 children. They were (Twins) Van and Eunice, then Bland and Edith Massey. When her husband George W. died Aug 20, 1896 the children were all very young, Van & Eunice were only 8 years old. Bland was 5 and Edith was 3 Yrs. old. We can only imagine the rough time she must have had raising the children alone.
More than seven years later she married James A.(Jim) Nelson Dec 27,1904. Besides raising her four young children Nancy and Jim Nelson finished raising her two young grandsons Earl and Lee Nelson, after the death of her daughter Eunice Nelson on Mar 7, 1911. Nancy was 74 Years of age at her death in 1942. Jim lived for about a year after her passing.
