Does anybody out there have ANY information about an Augustine
Wells????
Primary evidence is
.
Recorded in Book 1 at Page 600 of the Monongalia County West Virginia
Marriage Bonds .......
Know all men by these presents that we John W. Evans and Augustin Wells
both of Monongalia County, Virginia are held and firmly bound unto La__
Barbour Esq Governor of the Commonwealth in the sum of 150
dollars............. sealed with our seals dated the 18th day of October
1813.
Whereas a marriage is suddenly intended to be had and solemnized between
the above bound John W. Evans and Nancy Wells daughter of Thomas Wells
both of this county: Now the condition of the above obligation is such
that if there be no law full cause or just impediment to obstruct said
marriage then the above obligation to be void else to remain in full
force
Signature of John W. Evans (seal)
Signature of Augustin Wells (seal)
Second piece of paper, in the handwriting of the signature of John Wells
below, states
..
I do hereby certify that I am willing for John W. Evans to get married
to my Daughter Nancy
Given under my hand this 18th Day of October 1813.
Signature of Nimrod Evans Signature of John Wells
(note: Nimrod Evans was John W. Evans brother and John W. Evans was my
Great Great Grandfather)
2. Notice one document said Thomas was father but separate note said
John was father. I am not sure which to believe. It could be either one
and Augustin was her uncle. John or Thomas probably couldn't get to
court house or something and gave note to his brother for him to execute
bond.
Seems logical
but which one ??? Thomas is # 23 below and John is # 24.
3. Does anybody have any information on the children of Thomas #23 or
John #24?
4. Let me now confuse the issue with something I got from from Orin
Wells some time ago
"Nancy Wells dau of Thomas Wells married John Evans son of Dudley Evans
on 18 Oct 1813. We believe that Thomas Wells was a brother to the
Augustine Wells who also appears in the area. Thomas actually lived
across the county line in Washington County, Pennsylvania. This part of
PA was apparently previously part of Monongalia County. Thomas and
Augustine Wells were sons of Augustine Wells, Sr. who was from
Philadelphia and no relation to the Zorobabel Wells family."
5. The information on Nancy is that she was born 13 Feb 1793 in Maryland
and died 09 Mar 1879. She is buried in Walters Christian Cemetery, Noble
and Washington Counties Ohio.( The cemetery straddles the county line.)
She married John Williams Evans 18 Oct 1813 in Monongahela County,
Virginia; born 22 Oct 1790 in Monongahela County, Virginia; died 09 Feb
1874 in Noble Count, Ohio. All of these dates are on their respective
tombstones.
6. Ok, so are you still with me
The data below is what I culled off
the archives from your various emails to each other. I have no proof
except your emails to each other. Please let me know if I have your
portions correct or if you have any disagreements?
7. Any additional information of any kind (i.e. gaps, notes, sources,
etc) would be GREATLY appreciated. I plan to incorporate it all into a
single file and send you all a copy of the file.
Thanks for your help
