Did he die in New Windsor, Orange, NY or MA. He had lived in NY unti l death.
[Note from Mary Doughty Henschel]
According to Mary Doughty Henschel, "I think Ballou was guessing when he said, as he did in giving the list of Josiah Nelson's children, that Henry lived, married, and died in Milford. It was an easy mistake to make for I was told by Uncle Henry Doughty of Durand that Henry Nelson's body was taken from Long Island to Milford for burial. Probably that was done at the desire of his father, and also because his wife's body was probably never recovered from the Hudson.
