His marriage to Etta Sophia Iverson took place in Wallingford on September 1, 1907 and they made their home on the Nelson farm near Rudd.
His wife died April 11, 1962. One granddaughter, Joyce Nelson, his parents, three brothers and four sisters also preceded him in death.
Surviving are his children, Obert Nelson of rural Rudd, and Mrs. Alvin (Alma) Kling of rural Osage, three grandsons, and one sister, Mrs. Tina Naig of Osage.
Mr. Nelson was trustee at Rock Creek Lutheran for several years and was parochial school director in the past. He was also a member of the Floyd County Co-op Oil Company. He farmed until his retirement four years ago.
