In the 1915 Vernon County plat book, Abraham Nelson owns 80 acres in Section 26 of Kickapoo Twp (next to the Sam Nundal farm) in partnership with one of the Anderson brothers (Albert according to the plat map, George according to the Farmers’ Directory). “Anderson and Nelson” also own a back 40 in Section 35.

In the 1920 census (misindexed as “Nahon”) the family lives in Kickapoo Twp near the Sam Nundahl family. Living with the Nelsons at that time was Abraham’s older brother Lewis. Abraham was listed as a tobacco farmer.
