PREFACE,

-o-o-

Being asked recently if any of the Nellis familywere in the War of the Revolution, I could not answer thequestion, neither coulc I tell the name of my great-grandfather. This set me to thinking that it was tile some record was made whereby future generations might know somethingof the lives of their forebears.Not making any pretention to literary merit, Itrust that all defects as to style may be overlooked. Thefacts and dates, however, as herein set forth, can be reliedupon. I wish to £ive credit to D. C. Nellis, of Topeka,

Kansas,

for most of the information relative to Christian,William and Johannes Nellis, and their early settlement withthe Palatines on the Mohawk; also to George H. Fassett, ofAshtabula, Ohio, for many of the records of the J. I. D.
