I have a dau of William and Susan Ward Wells, Nancy who married a Mort Creech but no information on a Margaret Wells who married a John Creech. Also, I have a John P. Wells who is the son of Zachariah ans Elizabeth Shepard Wells. He married Elizabeth Gilley. I have a number of Josephs and Sarahs, but none that would appear to be old enough to be the children of Zachariah and Abigail Osborn Wells. By the way, does anyone have any info on Jacob and Johanna Shepard Wells? All I have is that they went to Missouri. Does anyone know where in MO they may have settled? Judy

I have not paid close attention because they are not my line; however, I ran across the following while going through a pile of Very Important Unfiled Papers. I had copied the information from Early Settlers... because of the mention of Boggs and Pennington--my lines. From page 1076, I copied: John P. Shepherd, b. 1798, m. ~ 1824 Eleanor Boggs, b. 1804, daughter of John Boggs, b. 3/31/1778, died Lawrence Co KY, and Nancy Wells, b. 1783. Also, probably from the same page, I copied: Zachariah Wells, Wilkes Co NC, 1778 entered 100 acres lying on New River...between his and Micajah Pennington's... 9/9/78. and 3/31/1778 Micajah Pennington conveyed 100 acres beginning on North side of New River in Wilkes Co NC to Zachariah Wells for 80 pounds.

I have a Jacob & Johanna Shepherd Wells. Johanna daughter of James & Rachel Gault Shepherd. From a very reliable source I have Jacob and wife Johanna were dismissed by letter from Three Forks Baptist Church at Big Stone Gap in July 1826. When estate of father, James Shepherd was settled in 1853 in Jackson Co. MO., she was a resident of Andrew Co. MO. Does anyone have the siblings of Jacob & Johanna? Thanks!!
