We have a few new faces here at Nelles Manor! Say We have a few new faces here at Nelles Manor!

Say hello to Peter Ball Nelles and his wife Mary Sumner Nelles. 🙋🏼‍♀️ 

These portraits were recently acquired at auction and feel right at home here in the drawing room, Peter being the nephew of Col. Robert Nelles. Painted by local 19th century oil painter Delos Cline Bell, these paintings are a meaningful addition to the Nelles collection. Welcome home!

When Barry and Linda Coutts decided to purchase the Manor in the 1970s and spent years restoring it, they never thought they would have created a museum.

The Strong Women of Nelles Manor
By Jess Linzel

Elizabeth (Moore) Nelles (1769-1813)
First wife of UEL Col. Robert Nelles, she married Robert in 1788. This was the same year that Nelles Manor began construction. This strong woman bore many children, eight of which survived infancy. Elizabeth worked hard to establish a home here in Grimsby (The Forty) and tragically passed away during the War of 1812.

Maria Jane (Waddell) Nelles (1783-1848)
The second wife of UEL Col. Robert Nelles, she married Robert in July of 1814. A widow herself, Maria Jane brought two children into her new marriage. Not only did she now have a large number of children to care for, but her husband was busy fighting with the 4th Lincoln militia against the American army near the Niagara River. Maria Jane gave birth to 6 more children with Robert in her lifetime, and passed away at the age of 64.
