Susan, Are your Johnson County WELLS related to any of the WELLS that moved to Williamson County? Charlie WELLS md. Ollie Jane BRUSH in Pope Co. Both died in Williamson County but were buried in Zion Cemetery, Pope County, Illinois. I have their children's names and dates if these names are familiar to you.

Hello Susan, go to http://home.att.net/~wnoliver/zionill.htm There you will find those who buried in the Zion Cemetery, Pope county as of 1916. This was one of the churches that Richy OLIVER [my Gr Great Granddad] preached as a circuit minister for the Methodist churches.

Bill, I just went out and checked out the website you mentioned. The afore mentioned cousin, Linda Byrd, photocopied the history for me. I thought that it all looked familiar to me, so I checked my copy, and sure enough, it's what I had!

Mary Jo, Yes, that Charlie WELLS is one of mine as well. I wasn't aware that Ollie Jane was a BRUSH, though. I have another BRUSH in my family, Rutha, who married William Oscar WELLS, Charlie's brother. I only have minimal information on Charlie & Ollie's children, and would love to share information with you.
