This query is from someone off the list.
Does anyone know where Jacob Wells, a grandson of Zachariah Wells ended
up? He married a widow named Nancy Elkins Wilder.
I see that Peggy Sheets Manning has a David Wells married to a Nancy
Elkins. David was a son of Jeremiah. Are these two the same person?
It also appears that Johns(t)on Wells married a Jerusha Elkins. A
connection here?
It gets more confused. The following was posted by a researcher on the
Wells list some time ago:
"I wonder if this John and Nancy Wells is the piece that I've been looking
for. I have Nancy Jane Elkins m. David Wilder after he died she was left
with the children and married John Wells, she also married David Wells. I
don't know if John Wells died or what. Nancy Jane Elkins was b. in TN in
1800. Does anyone have anymore info on this family?

Can anyone comment on this? I doubt she married THREE Wells men.
Further:
"My G GM was Arminda Jane WELLS, sister of Doctor F. WELLS. He
was born in Wise Co, VA..in 1851...she in Lee Co, VA. Their parents
were Johnson and Jerusha Elkins WELLS...Johnson said to be the son of
Jerimiah WELLS, who was the son of Zachariah WELLS.
Bill Brown in Dallas"
Greg, Dot or Darlene, can any of you comment on this? Or, anyone else for
that matter?
