Notes
a. Note:   Frank Wells grew up in Lee Co., Iowa, living in Charleston. He only finished the second grade of elementary school, and as a young man, Frank was placed in a foster home, where he worked for several years. Frank Wells grew up in Lee Co., Iowa, living in Charleston until moving as a young man to California. At age 20, he registered for military service in 1917 in Tulare Co., California. He worked as a truck driver, carpenter and cement worker, mostly in and around Bakersfield, Kern Co., California.
  A stern disciplinarian with his own children, Frank encouraged his grandchildren and delighted in the antics of his great-grandchildren. One of Douglas Detling's fondest memories of his grandfather is the loving expression on Frank Wells' face when his great-grandson, Robin Detling, at age three "borrowed" Frank's baseball cap and put it on while sitting on his great-grandfather's lap.
  Frank Wells' Death Record: CA Dept. of Health, #56422. Burial records in possession of Douglas Detling.
