Hi Jill, Unfortunately your WELLS do not seem to connect to mine. My WELLS are originally from Tattershall - I have them back to Richard Wells bp. 1584. I was actually looking at VEASEY's in Deeping Fen. The VEASEY family ended up in Horncastle and one of them married into my WELLS family. FOR JILL ONLY - NOT LIST: I am attaching a print from my database of people I have with Donington and Deeping Fen facts. All these have WELLS connections via offspring or sibling marriages etc. Let me know if you recognize any of them.

Hi Listers Just wanted to comment on these Lincolnshire Veaseys as it is another spelling of my surname. In researching the female side of my heritage (PLOWRIGHT & HOOTON) in Lincs. I've frequently come across this group. To date I can find no connection to my family who were originally the Essex/Suffolk Hintlesham VESEYs. However, my HOOTONs were living in Deeping Fen. (1841 Census). I think originally they came from Lincoln but I haven't been able to push back that far yet to prove it. I have found Edward HOOTON m. 13 May 1754 Elizabeth WOODS at Deeping St. James, Lincolnshire, England. I have not found their baptisms. All help or suggestions gratefully received. Linda B.C.
