Nichols Family Tree
Kevin's maternal grandmother is Clarease Ireland, born Beulah Clarease Nichols.
Our line of descent in the Nichols family is fairly clear to Walter Nichols, who was born
in Anson, North Carolina in 1794. Several theories have been advanced about our earlier ancestors which need to be explored further at a later date.
Nichols is the 153rd most common surname in America; about 150,000 Americans share that name - and many more have ancestors with the name.
It turns out that it's incredibly difficult to accurately research distant relatives who have a name like Nichols beyond a few generations.
