52 Ancestors Challenge: Week #20 - Mary Jane O'Rourke

Short and sweet this week as I don't know much about my 2nd great grandmother.

Mary Jane O'Rourke was born about 1870 in Wisconsin.  I do not know who her parents were so she is a dead end for me.  Mary Jane married John Nelen (1857-?) and they had at least two children:

• George (1901-1985)
• Alice Mabel (my great grandmother; 1905-1988).  

The 1910, 1920 and 1930 census have her living in Spring Valley, Wisconsin.  I do not have an exact year of death but I am guessing Mary Jane passed during the 1930's as I have found no record of her in the 1940's census.
