Author: CrystalSharp35 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.wells/5165/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I'm trying to find the parents of my great grandmother Evelyn Wells. She was born 4 Aug 1898 in North Carolina. She died 22 July 1973 in South Boston,Halifax,Virginia. She married Robert Bascomb Sharp. He was born 22 Feb 1893 in Buncombe,North Carolina. He died 22 July 1959 South Boston,Halifax,Virginia. I know her dad was born in Massachusetts and her grandfather was born in Ireland. I've been told her grandfather's name may have been James Wells and that he was a boat captain. But can't confirm this. I'm desperately trying to find her parents. If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you. Crystal Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
