in, especially since his brother was in the Union Army. Also date died, and place of burial. Any

I have hit a brick wall. George B Nelson born 11 Aug 1846 in Mississippi to George B
Nelson and Maggie A ? The US Census states that his father was born in Virginia.I have a
Great Uncle that is George Bancroft Nelson IV. Therefore I know that there were three
before him. I have no idea where to look. I've tried the census records, but there all needing to
be or assigned and only very few counties have info. I live in Mississippi, so thatis entirely
too far for me to drive and research. If you have any ideas please e-mail me. Any info would
really help.

GLASS -
I am looking for the country of origin of John Glass of York Co. Virginia in the 1600's.
He had a son Thomas Glass who lived in New Kent Co. Va. died in 1734. Thomas Glass
had a son Thomas Glass Jr, who produced two sons Robert born 1701 and Thomas III, not sure
of his birth date. My side of this family branches off from his son Thomas Glass III. The
other brother, Robert produced the line that leads to Senator Carter Glass of Lynchburg
Va, born Jan. 4, 1858. They are probably from England or Scotland, and this is my question. Are
they of Scotish or English origin? The Carter Glass side has been researched by a Mr.
Adams for then Senator Carter Glass, and I am leaning towards believing they were from
England. Just would like to know from where in England. Anybody have any information on this
family?
