    1. Re: [WELLS] Wells from early 1800's 1,000 Islands; Upstate NY & Ontario
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: eileenfuller84 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.wells/5099.10/mb.ashx Message Board Post: My great grandmother was Rachel Anna Wells Fuller. She married Joel Chester Fuller in Warren County, New York in 1849. Until 1820 Warren County was part of Washington County. Rachel had a sister Johanna who married Joel's oldest brother Harmon J. Fuller. Rachel and Johanna's parents were Ira Wells and Elizabeth Harrin Ovitt Fuller. Ira's parents were Shaler Wells and Ann Dart. Shaler's parents were Joseph Wells and Thankful Shaler. This line of Wells moved from Hebron, Tolland County, Connecticut to Washington County, New York. Ira was born in Cambridge, Washington County, NY in 1804 but his father Shaler Wells was born in Hebron, Tolland Connecticut in 1761. Shaler's parents were born in Hebron, Tolland, Connecticut, but died in Cambridge, Washington County, NY. I will be glad to research further if you think there is a connection. I have had a little trouble tracking the Wells. The Fullers all pretty much stayed in Warren County, except Joel's son Chauncey Ors! on, my great grandfather. He went to South Dakota, Iowa and finally to Montana to Portland, Oregon and back to Montana where he died at my Uncle Charlie Fuller's home.
