Nettles was raised in a Baptist family for all of her life until adulthood. After becoming a nurse, Nettles married a businessman and remained with him for 23 years, having four children with him. Their marriage remained mostly stable, until it ended 1972. According to the New York Times, their marriage dissolved due to Nettles' belief that Brother Francis, a 19th century monk, frequently spoke with her and gave her instructions. Furthermore, Nettles often conducted seances with mediums in order to contact other deceased spirits. A circle group was held every Wednesday at her house in relation to this. In 1972, Nettles went to see multiple fortunetellers, who told her that she was soon to meet a mysterious man who was tall with light hair and a fair complexion. This description was fairly close to Applewhite's.
