In response to Don's list of children of Zachariah and Abigail, my list
shows only the first ten as children. I have their birth dates as well. I
do not show John P.WELLS and Joseph WELLS as their children.

I have the children of Zachariah as...
1. Thomas WELLS
2. Nancy WELLS
3. Zachariah WELLS
4. William T. WELLS
5. Robert WELLS
6. Jemima WELLS
7. Elizabeth WELLS
8. Abigail WELLS
9. Jacob WELLS
10. Jeremiah WELLS
11. John P. WELLS
12. Joseph WELLS
As suggested above, the naming pattern supports a connection between these
two families.
