Does anyone have any information on a Jesse Wells b: Cir 1784 in Virgina m: Nancy (Brown?) b: Cir 1788 VA. They moved to Barren County, Kentucky possibly early in the 1800s. In the 1850 census there is a 22 year-old Smith A. Wells in the household. Not clear if this is a son or grandson. I have a hunch that Jesse was a brother of the Amos Wells who was also in Barren County and close in age to Jesse.. What I am really trying to figure out is whether William A. Wells, who appears to have died by 1850, was a son of Jesse and Nancy. William's family appears two houses away from Jesse in 1850 and next door is a James Wells age 30 whom I am suspecting is another son of Jesse. Anyone know anything about this family? Orin R.
