William
Nelson Ives was the son of Charles Ives and Sarah Hite. He
was the grandson of Matthew Ives and Julia Freeman. Nancy's
brother, Jesse Lazarus McLeod would later marry (as his second wife)
another grandchild of Matthew and Julia whose name was Mary Rosa
Ives. Rosa was the daughter of Joseph Freeman Ives and Sarah Ann
Ross.
After
the death of Nancy (Mamie), Rosa was raised for a time by her grandparents.
It is unknown to date which set of grandparents with whom she lived.
No census records have yet been found to indicate her presence in
Alexander and Harriet Yates McLeod's home. Descendants report that
she spent some time in a local orphanage attending school before
her marriage at age 16. Further research is necessary.

Note:
The 1930 Census shows that 52 year old Rosa had married at age
16 cr. 1893- it also shows 4 children born between 1915 and 1922.
Rosa's age in 1930 and the fact that Bertie Ives is not shown
in that census in their home indicates that she was born bef.
1915. The year gap between the marriage (1893/4 and 1915) when
the first child shown on the 1930 census was born also indicates
that there may be more children than shown on this page. An initial
search of the 1920 census has not revealed William and Rosa. Further
research into that census may reveal the existence of more children.
Using two years between each birth, beginning in 1895, as many
as 11 other children may have been born.
