Note: DEATH: At the age of 34, Nellie tragically died from a gunshot wound to the head while visiting Paris, France (as per the newspaper article from the Los Angeles Herald, Volume XXX, Number 51, November 22, 1902). The cause of death was deemed an accident when a revolver was dropped onto the floor which triggered the gun to shoot a bullet. It appears her trip to Paris occurred after she and Thomas had either separated or divorced. Her Last Will was dated December 11, 1901 leaving nothing to Thomas Gore. DATE OF DEATH: There is a discrepancy for Nellie's date of death. The California Biographical Index lists her date of death as November 20, 1902. But the newspaper article discussing her Last Will, lists her date of death as November 19, 1902.
