From a Guthrie Newspaper (unknown) August 1942
ILLNESS FATAL - Funeral services for John Edgar (Johnny) Nelson,
6-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. W. E. (Bill and Zelma Austin) Nelson, 101 
N. Sixteenth, will be conducted at 9 o'clock Wednesday morning, from St.
Mary's Catholic church. Father James VanGastel will officiate. Burial will
be in Summit View Cemetery.

Other survivors are a sister and brother, Nancy Lou, two and one-half years
old, and William Paul, three weeks old, and the grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. John
(John and Blanche Bussard) Austin, and Mr. and Mrs. Edward (should be Edgar)

after noticeable improvement, suffering a relapse the past two weeks.
