Classification: Marriage
Surnames: McDonald/Nelles
My grandfather was named David Nelles Garfield McDonald. Born May 9, 1884 in Waterford, Norfolk, Ontario to George Oscar McDonald and Ida May West. His grandfather was John McDonald and I have been told the Nelles in his name is a "family" name. I am therefore looking for the connection between Nelles and McDonald as well. His grandfather died October 24, 1876 and his death certificate says he was just over 90, which would put his birthdate back to about 1786. I cannot get back past that date but wonder if there was a Nelles connection in the mid-1700's. John was born in Canada West, but his father's name is unknown to me.
