My husband is descended from M. Nicippi Wells (dtr of Isaac C. WELLS and Ann Nancy ROBBINS) and John WALLACE b. 1804 AL. While looking through census, etc. I came across the following: Mississippi State and Territorial Census Collection, 1792-1866: Name: Isaac Wells County: Madison Line: 28 Roll: v229_2 (Date: probably 1830 - 1840) Note: There is a John Waddle listed above Isaac Wells. Then: 1850 Township 15 R 8 E, Attala, Mississippi Census: Roll: M432_368; Page: 168B; Image: 391 HH# 1158/1162 Isaac Wells 66 GA Min. Gospel Nancy Wells 66 GA John Waddell 9 MS orphan Nancy J Waddell 11 MS orphan Perhaps this is the connection. Any input into my particular family would be appreciated. I have it forward from Nicippi WELLS to present day, but not back. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
