Note: SOPHIE Nelson was a tell slender lady with lots of action and ambition. She remained a spinster until middle aged. Romance also played a part in her life. She had the choice of several eligible bachelors. There was a suspense as we waited to see who the lucky man would be. About that time the matrimonial bee got into her bonnet and the best man won. She became Mrs. Andrew Anderson. They were noted for their team of oxen whose names were Stol and Bill. Sto1 was a high faluten name meaning the best grade of iron or steel,. That team broke the virgin soil and did the work and served as a buggy team., The Andersons afterwards kept some very good horses. The name of their dog was Watch. He was black with brown spots over his eyes. Esther and Ellen were their contribution to the Nelson relation.
