Afternoon Tuthill
My name is Alison Stacey and Charles Nelmes is my GGGGrand father through a line traced back from my Grandmother Mabel Elizabeth Maull [nee Nelmes].
I too am having the same dilemma as you are in tracing Charles' death.
I agree with you on his birth in Slimbridge to John Nelmes and Mary [Willis?]and yes, Esther was a widow by the 1871 census . I was sending for the GRO certificate for a Chipping Sodbury death in 1867 but he is cited as 59, so it does not tie in with his birth which I believe is correct.
I am in the process of trying to find more on John Nelmes but I believe he died in Eastington Workhouse in 1877.

I am going to look at the children from this marriage of John and Mary. I know that Charles and Esther had 3 children from their marriage - I am a direct descendant from Samuel Nelmes and you are related to either George or James.
I will update on my findings but also keep me informed
Cheers
