I am not finding the information that you posted. For example here is a death record from Holy Cross for a Dominick Nicholson but it shows he died in 1976?

Dominic Nicholson
in the U.S., Find A Grave Index, 1600s-Current
Name: Dominic Nicholson
Death Date: 3 Dec 1976
Cemetery: Holy Cross Cemetery
Burial or Cremation Place: Brooklyn, Kings County (Brooklyn), New York, United States of America
Has Bio?: N

And a death record for a Thomas that seems to fit the Thomas in your 1930 and 1940 US Censuss records but the mothers name is Catherine Brown not Smith?

Thomas Dominic Nicholson
in the U.S., Social Security Applications and Claims Index, 1936-2007
Name: Thomas Dominic Nicholson
[Thomas D Nicholson]
Gender: Male
Race: White
Birth Date: 14 Dec 1922

Mother: Catherine Brown
SSN: 050181784
Notes: Feb 1941: Name listed as THOMAS DOMINIC NICHOLSON; 20 Jul 1991: Name listed as THOMAS D NICHOLSON

Maybe some of your information is off a little. I find a record from Holy Cross Cemetery for a Catherine Nicholson who died June 10, 1958. That is the date you have for her husband?

Catherine Nicholson

Name: Catherine Nicholson

Thahks.
I was mistaken about the birth of Katherine.
Katherine and Dominick are buried in the same place as Katherine's mother and father. Her parents are Catherine and Mathew Smith. They live in the 1930s in the same house. In the 1940 census, Mathew is dead. Mathew was born in Norway named Mads Kristian Smith Jorstad. He was my grand uncle.
I have found several with Dominick's children's names that are 80+ in white pages, but there are several with the same name in New York.

Can Catherine have remarried after the death of Dominick, or did they devorse?
It seems that none of them had children.

I have not seen any divorce, but I have not looked very hard.

When you say they did not have children, I assume you are saying that the children of Dominnick and Catherine Nicholson did not have children of their own?

But they did. At least we know of one Eileen Nicholson Guyette is the daughter of Peter Michael Nicholson and Helen Higgens.

Eileen Marie Nicholson

And the marriage record for her father

Peter M. Nicholson

Here is a message fro Holy Cross Cementery:

Dear Mr. O’Koller,

This is in response to your letter of 5-23-2019. We have located a Matthew Smith interred on 3-16-1934, with a Kathryn Smith interred on 7-20-1946, they are both located in Section: St. George-Rg.015-No. 163/164. Name on Cert: is Dominic Nicholson. In the same plot the name of a Catherine Nicholson is interred on 6-10-1958 at the age of 51, she could possibly be the daughter you speak of. Normally we do not do business by e-mail. Being you are in Norway I felt it would be easier. In the future continue to need information needed in the mail.Thankyou,

Then I can search in Vermont.
If I do not succeed, I can ask my cousin, who lives just outside Rutland.

marvelous
So thank you so far.
