I have been waiting for my 1G grandfathers death certifcate from Coachalla, Riverside CO. Calif. It came in today and the below is what I have at present time about Monroe Jackson Wells and his parents. Unknown Wells born Illinois married Vina Jennings who was born Illinois. (From Monroe Jackson Wells death cert. T.R Wells informant) They lived in Pala Pinto CO. Texas, and family lore also has them owning land at Sherman Texas. Also Vina Jennings as a possible caretaker or Dr. who made her rounds on horseback. ---------------- Lillie Mae Reed memory is: Monroe's father and Vina Jennings had 15 children.They had 5 sets of twins and 5 singles. "I remember Claud Wells his wife Lila, and Edward Wells whose wife's name was Bell, and Monroe Jackson Wells was married to Edna Mae Woods." ---------------- Unknown Wells and Vina Jennings had the following child: Monroe Jackson Wells was born Pala Pinto Co. Texas 5-23-1879 and died 1-25-1947 Coachella (Rural) California, at 67 years of age. Monroe was a Farm Laborer (From Monroe Jackson Wells death cert. T. R. Wells informant.) Monroe married twice. He married Edna Mae Woods probably Pala Pinto Co. Texas, 10-1899 and Edna died 1908 Elk City Okla. He married second Ocie Teague after 1908. Ocie Teague was sister to Ora Bell Teague and Otis Teague.

Thurmond Rayburn Wells was born 1904 and married Ora Bell Teague. 3. Vera Mae Wells was born 1906. She married Otis Teague. Monroe Jackson Wells and Ocie Teague had the following children: 1. Willie Dee Wells died at 3 yrs of age.. 2. unknown son, (Family Lore) At one time he was mistaken for the Lindenburg baby aftr he was kidnapped. Because of their having blonde curly hair. Ocie had to produce his birth certificate before the FBI would let her take him home. She caried his birth certificate in her bag from then on so she would have proof of who he was on hand at all times. I'm looking for my Wells family connection. Any information will be most helpful.
