Individual Details
George W. WELLS
(Dec 1849 - Aft 1 Jan 1920)
Note that in the 1900 census, when George was in Nez Perce Co., ID,some families on the same page were: John McCoy, born MO Jun 1864,Henry R. Dixon born March 1826 in Maryland and Jacob Becker, bornOct1843 in Germany.
In the 1920 census, listed after son, George, is a female, name hardto read - possibly Trily - age 16, daughter. But in 1910, she wasn'twith the family and Dicie said she was the mother of 5, only oneliving. That, togehter with the fact that Dicie would have been over50, makes it unlikely this is a daughter. Another relative? Or wasshe possibly George Jr's wife but listed as single?
