Look Ups

At this time I do not have a copy of the History of Nuckolls County and the only other reference(s) is the book SOME REIMAN(N) DESCENDANTS which I wrote and compliled in 1989. Though the main thrust of this book is Nuckolls county one of the original sons settled into Dundy county. Thus, for the moment, if you are related to the REIMAN family I can be of some use in your search and would be happy to do look ups for you. Please limit look ups to one surname per request. As a little time progresses I'm sure that I will gain more references. In the meanwhile, I suggest you utilize the SURNAME and QUERY pages for Nuckolls county.

Please send your look up request to Bill Oliver

Newspapers in Nuckolls County HISTORY Nuckolls county was created in 1860 though it was not organized until June of 1871. It was formed from Clay county and Nelson is its present county seat. The history of the county as part of the state of Nebraska begins with the Great Trail era. The Overland Route from Saint Joseph, Missouri to California entered Nebraska in Jefferson county and passed through Nuckolls County along the course of the Little Blue River. Though settlement began as early as 1858, this area was at that time on the cutting edge of the frontier. The threat from the First Americans was great and reached a peak with the Great Raid in August 1864. By 1866 all Whites had been driven from the county, but by 1870 settlers were returning in numbers. In June of the next year the orgainization and first election took place. Elkton was the first county seat. In the election of 1873 the county seat was centralized in Nelson. Superior, located in the southern part of the county is the largest town and was surveyed in 1875. Saint Stephens, located in the northwestern portion of the county, was the first church established in the county. Link to Nuckolls County HISTORY page.

The idea was to provide a single entry point for all counties in Kentucky, where collected databases would be stored. In addition, the databases would be indexed and cross-linked, so that even if an individual were found in more than one county, they could be located in the index. At the same time, volunteers were found who were willing to coordinate the collection of databases and generally oversee the contents of the web page. In June, as the Kentucky project was nearing completion, it was decided to start a page for each of the remaining states, and as with the Kentucky project, volunteers were found to host the state pages. If the state in which you are interested does not have a page and you wish to be responsible for it, of if you would like to contribute your data or create a county page within a given state, contact the person responsible for maintaining that state and/or county.
