A fascinating and most complete genealogy of Jeanette and Nelson's family trees ever published! Contains the most up-to-date information. Lots of photos, documentations, census reports and answers to the following questions: Was Nelson really related to President Martin Van Buren? Is the birthdate on Isabel Eddy's grave correct? And what is the mystery surrounding Jeanette's paternal grandmother, Jeanette Johnstone? If you are related to either star, you'll particularly find this issue of interest! Also, an interview with Nelson's cousin on the Kendrick side, George Hoge. If you have read the book Sweethearts, you know that Nelson had an interest in vitamins and holistic medicines (ie, he took Jeanette to see a Chinese herb doctor). We knew this mindset came from the Kendrick side of the family and in this interview, George fills in the missing pieces! His grandmother (Nelson's aunt Mae) was a holistic medical doctor in the Philadelphia area while Nelson was living there as a struggling young singer. Nelson was close to his grandmother and his first cousin who ran their health food store! Also, the final section of Nelson's 1949 concert diary.
