"The sad part of the story is that after the death of Esther Olmstead
Nelson in 1874, Gilbert Nelson remarried. The children's stepmother alienated a number of the children who left the homestead as soon as possible.
According to the census of 1891, Gilbert and Sarah were occupying the
family homestead alone with two hired hands. Period. I have not been able to locate "Sarah's" last name. It is a legend in our family that Esther Olmstead Nelson was a model irreplaceable mother. Poor Sarah! She didn't have a chance."

By a law of the Province, enacted in 1692-'93, it became necessary to warn all strangers to leave the town; and if such warning was not given within three months, then all such persons were to be reputed inhabitants of the town, and if any of them became sick or poor then the town was obliged to aid them. Great care was taken to comply with the law, as the lists of persons warned clearly show. If any person duly warned by the constable did not depart in fourteen days, he was conveyed out of town by the constable or by his order. John and Sarah with their daughters Sarah and Mary headed the 1759 'warning' list. | Family: F1562
