Could be one and the same person and could be a son of Artford Armistead Wells, There is a gap in the birth of his children Patrick W. Wells (my g grandfather) born April, 19, 1836 Logan County, KY and Francis (Frank) H. Wells born 1842 Logan County, KY. I put it out there, without documentation, could they be the same person?
