I have rec'd an abstract of the legal notice to settle the estate of John I. Wells in 1866. I notice that it does not include Cerenus. Had he died? It does include some names as heirs which are new to me. These are: Juliann, W.H., Adrian F. and Cynthia A. Can you identify them for me? Many thanks - Jody Davis INTERNET: e-mail 2004 From: [email protected] Date: Sat, 24 Jul 2004 21:53:50 EDT Subject: Wells worldconnect data To: [email protected] X-Mailer: AOL 4.0 for Windows 95 sub 15 Hi, Arnold -- I found your info at worldconnect. Good job! All of these Wellses descend from Henry and Nelly Van Vliet Wells who married in Dutchess Co, NY abt 1760; moved up the Hudson and ended up in Albany County where he died. Two of their sons, Henry b. 1771 and Isaac, b. 1775 moved to Wayne County - after a stopover in Truxton, Cortland County. Their oldest son, Tunis, apparently led the migration to Cortland from Schenectady/Schorarie. His son Tunis Jr, his daughter Nelly Wells m. David Peak, and son Isaac 2nd all moved to either Wayne or Medina. If this reaches you and if you want the info, pls get back to me.
