comment=So glad to find a site that perhaps I can get some information back on my father's family. I do know that his family lived in AK and that my granmother was Etta Philpot Wells, her mother was Sarah Jane Powell. Sara was Indian and we think it was Cherokee. My father was Arlie A. Wells. He had three brothers, Clarice, Orville and Bobby. He also had two sisters, Ruth and Reba. I have been teaching for 29 years in a small town , Waskom, TX. It is on the TX, LA line next to Shreveport, LA. I love your web page, especially the crest.

Hello,
Im beginning to think I am working on "MISSION IMPOSSIBLE." My father is Harry Ronald Wells, born around June (2nd or 4th maybe) of ?1939-1943?. His parents were Fred E.(?Sr.) (died 1967-68?) & Elwanda (Stangle) Wells and he had one brother, Fred E."Freddie" (?Jr.). Fred E.(Sr.) had one brother (that I know of), Olley(?sp) Wells. Olley (dont have wifes name) had 3 children... Bill (or William), Carl, and Mary. Bill married Selestine(?sp) ?, and they had 3 children... Everett, William "Billy", and ???(youngest child). Have no information on Mary.
Elwanda Stangle was daughter of Walter & Christine Stangle and both are buried in Dayton OH. Harry Ronald Wells(my father) married Dorothy Annette (Bradley-birthgiven surname) Clifford (adoptive surname) in the early 1960's. Their children are Clifford Ronald Wells born 12/1/63 and Bobby Ray Wells born 5/10/65. At the time of divorce, they lived in/around Cincinnatti Ohio. Harry Ronald Wells also went by the names "Ron, Ronnie, and QBall", and is listed on my birth cert. as being Ronald Harry Wells.
This family seemed to have originated from, or at least had family living in Indiana, Kentucky(Warsaw), and Ohio. I know this is VERY LITTLE to go on and so far in my 12years of looking, I have not been able to come up with any information what-so-ever, other than that listed above. If you have any ideas or clues or would happen to know any of these people, PLEASE email me: badco4u@hotmail.com Thanks,
Bobby

Dear Shawn
Thank you for responding and sorry it has taken so long to reply.
We have had a good bit of luck this past week, and have located a lot of cousins that are living in Cincinnati OH. There are also plans under-way of having a small family-reuniun type get-together this up-coming Sunday.
The only person that is still missing is Harry Ronald Wells, my husbands father. However, we have learned that he is living "somewhere" in Florida. Those cousins that were found and met have said that he ("Ron") was working for "someone" transporting speed/race boats from Ohio to Florida and evidentally the last time he went to Florida, he decided to stay. But they did say that if anyone could find him they were certain he would love to know that his sons, Bobby and Clifford, are and have been looking for him. As the story has it, he tried to find them for years but didnt have any luck.
I know this is probably a very far cry in the dark, but, at present it seems even though we have came along way from where we were, we're still back at square one. But the information that we have is that he is 60years old, will be 61 on June 6th. He is probably about 5'10" +/-, and is very slim. He also seems to be known best by his nickname "QBall". And it is believed that he no longer works, but draws social security. Also he never remarried, after the divorce from my mother-n-law in '66, and we were also told that he never had any other children.
Would it be possible to post any of this info. in hopes that someone from Florida would see it and know him, so that they could pass word on to him that his sons are looking for him and cousins in Cincinnati have the info needed to contact his sons.
Anything (advice or otherwise) would be greatly appreciated. And thank you for your time and offers of helping.
Have a great day~
Eva & Bobby Wells

Your site is wonderful. I would love to have a copy of the WELLS crest you offered. I tried to download the zip file but was unsuccesful opening it. Any help would be appreciated. I would also like your permission to put it on a MyFamily.com website for POLK family rersearchers, some of which are WELLS family members. I am sure they would appreciate it. Let me know if I have your permission to share. Thank you again for you wonderful efforts on your site.

Note from Shawn about crest file: You can also open a jpg file and save the crest from https://www.angelfire.com/fl/thewells/images/wcrest4.jpg this is a big file so it takes a moment or two to open, but I made it big in order to have a print quality image for you to print.

I am the daughter of Maxine (Wells)Skeen, who was the daughter of ? Wells, and Clara Swanson Wells, of Visalia. I would love to hear from any of you folks out there who are related, including any of you thirty plus first cousins.lol My mother had brothers named Robert (deceased),Lemuel (deceased), James(deceased), Donald (still alive), Bud (alive) and sisters Susan (deceased) and Maude(alive).
There is a family tree in our family, and although I do not have a copy, I believe that I can contact who has the family tree. Also, there is a copy of my great grandfather's will floating around, and I hope still findable. Hoping to hear from some of you cousins!
