Hi,
Please forgive me for highjacking this query, but I noticed Lee Co.,VA.
I have hit a brick wall in trying to locate anything about my great-grandfather, Squire Wells Sr., of Lee Co.,VA.
I know that he died on Nov. 8, 1858 at the age of 30, in Lee Co.,VA. One source thought he may have died in a fire or something like that.
If, I had his obituary, it may state who his parents were.
The other known facts are that he married Juliann Henegar (from Wythe Co.,VA.)
At age 20, he was living with the family of Elizabeth Jackson and the spelling of hsi last name was Wills in that census.
He and Juliann's children:
Eli
Sophia
Charles Henderson born 1856 (my grandfather)
Squire Jr. born 1857
Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Suzie Strader Ridge
