I am looking for information about Samuel Jackson Nichols, I believe born
around 1868, possibly in VA. He was a member of the Old German Baptist
Brethren church community around Modesto. Oral information passed down through
family members say he died in Modesto on July 31, 1937 of an accident involving
falling off a runaway hay wagon, and that he is buried in the Woodlawn
cemetery. We believe he moved to CA around 1918 with his wife, named Maragaret Anna
and children. Somewhere around 1926 his wife died of cancer. Samuel
Nichols is my (elderly) father-in-law's grandfather and is someone whom he knows
very little about - particulary Samuel Nichols parents. Any information
someone has on Samuel Nichols would be greatly appreciated. Samuel Nichols
daughter, Neosha Nichols Beachler, is my father-in-law's line that I am tracing.
