Lord Nelson's Relations
A Memory of Whissonsett.
I have discovered that my relations were related by marriage to Lord Horatio Nelson. He had a 2nd cousin called Bartholomew Nelson whose widow Lydia married my ancestor James Whitby, a builder from Kings Lynn.
James owned a property in Whissonsett occupied by a T. Neal, and his son James Neal married Lydia's daughter Emma Nelson. On the 1841 census in Whissonsett James & Emma Neal are living with their family and Lydia Nelson aged 70.
