There's a Peyton Wells who was buried at Congressional Cemetery on June 10, 1860 in Range 25, Site 175. Congressional's website, www.congressionalcemetery.org might have an obituary.

That is quite a long time frame and I would be grateful if anyone had any idea of what newspapers existed then and where they could be found for the search. It would be a big help if he could be located in the City Directories for that period. Any suggestions would be welcome.
