I am seeking information on John Wells and
Jane (Jean) Dempster. I believe John died before the 1851 Census. Know he was
deceased when Elizabeth married in 1855.

bloggszizi John Ernest Wells, Great Grandfather William Wells was born in Ecclefechan, Parish of Hoddam, Scotland on 19th Feb 1832. His parents were William Wells (b.c1804) & Jeannet nee Bell (b.c1801). William (b. 1832) was married in Australia in 1863 and died in Springsure Queensland 3rd Feb 1895. I have been unable to find when he came to Australia at this stage. I would be very interested to find anyone who may be a descendant of this first William and Jeannet. I was born in 1941 in Springsure Qld and now live at 13 Considine Street Rockhampton, Queensland, Australia, jwell@bigpond.com.au James Colin Wells Wells families of LOCHMABEN. I am researching the Wells' surname specifically dwelling in the town of Lochmaben for the period 1790 onwards (and before if records found) and movement into the villages around and wider Dumfriesshire area. My records also contain references to Walls' in Lochmaben around 1790 when the name appears to have changed to Wells. I am happy to share this information and hopefully receive additional new information in return where possible. james.wells@ntlworld.com
Rhonda Coleman, My husband is a descendant of Samuel Smith
Wells a Civil Engineer born in Ecclefechan Scotland
abt 1851 to George (John) Smith Wells & Isabella
Chalmers. Samuel was married in Australia on Jan 18, 1881 so not
on Scottish census. I cannot to date find Samuels birth or Isabella
& George (or John) marriage. In 1851: John S Wells age
21, Isabella Wells age 24, Mary Wells age 42, Peter Wells
age12, Agnes Wells age 3 and Samuel S. Wells age 8months. rmcoleman9
Jill Kerr Eaglesfield / Middlebie / Dockenflat (See also above)
I have traced our family as far as my 4xgreat
grandfather/mother Samuel Wells and Agnes Wells nee Carlyle.
They both are buried in Eaglesfield, Middlebie,Dumfries,
Scotland,26 April 1850 and 28 May 1831 respectively along with daughter Jane
Wells from Samuels first wife, Margaret McNay. Samuel and Margaret's
son William Wells was buried at Dockenflat on 26 October 1851, 48 years old.
Margaret Wells nee McNay was buried in July 1809 at Scotsbrig, 38 years old.
Samuel then married Agnes Carlyle and had three children
Their third child, James Carlyle Wells married to Mary
Richardson Underwood in Ruthwell in 1841 came to Australia in 1852 with
three of their children, Agnes, Jane and Wilhelmina. Mary's parents where
William Underwood and Mary Grierson.
On the passenger lists they boarded as "Walls", which is
why for many years I could not place them coming to Australia. I must
presume this to be a misinterpretation of the accent. However do wonder if
this may be the clue to researching further back on Samuel Wells, as all has
come to a halt with research on Samuel Wells and Agnes Carlyle as I have not
been able to discover any further back now on this line to date.
As far as Agnes parents are to date I am still
researching with no positive conclusions, only suspicions.
Samuel then married for a third time to Mary, who had a
young son with her, John Smith.
Samuel and Mary were to have two more children Peter and
Agnes.
By the time of the 1851 census taken in Middlebie, Samuel
had died and John Smith had assumed the name John Smith Wells. He had taken
a wife Isabella and had a young son himself, Samuel Smith Wells.

They went on to have
children
Edward b1850....John
b1852.... William b1854....Mary b1856....Elizabeth 1860.... all born
Dumfries. There may still be more children as they seemed to have very large
families.
William b1854
went on to meet and marry Janet (Jessie) Hay b1858 in 1878
They went on to have
children
Lizzie b1879....Jessie
b1880....Maggie b1882....Mary b1882.....Grace b1883...Andrew b1885
Nellie b1887....John b1891......Edward b1892.....Daisy b1900
Andrew b1885
went on to marry Alice Bower b1889 in 1937 in Coventry at the age of
48 Alice had no children with Andrew.
I believe Andrew was
married previously so I have been told by my aunt as there were children that
she thinks maybe were from his first marriage she stayed with Andrew and Alice
when she was younger she remembers lots of children always being around.

Lanarkshire Linda Bleschke KIRKMUIRHILL, BOGHEAD, LESMAHAGOW see entry under Dumfriesshire above Brian Caldwell, TEMPLEPATRICK / PAISLEY / BLANTYRE / GLASGOW / DURHAM. Joshua Wells was born in Templepatrick, Antrim, Ireland in 1785. He served 18 years and 2 months in the 2nd Royal Veteran Battalion, 27th Foot regiment and also with the 8th Royal Veteran Battalion. He was a Quartermaster Sergeant and discharged in 1826 at age 40. The family moved to Blantyre, Lanarkshire, Scotland between 1836 and 1840. Joshua died on March 12, 1862 in Blantyre. (Sources: catalogue.pro.gov.uk (war office records) and his death certificate) His wife was Elizabeth O'Neill b1806. They had the following in Ireland: William Wells 1829 [He became a grocer in Paisley (by 1881) - wife Ellen (1828)], James Wells 1831. In Blantyre they had: Richard Perry Wells 1841 Susan Wells 1843 Elenor Wells 1846. Mary Ann Wells 1834. She married William John Caldwell (born 1830) of Antrim in Blantyre July 20, 1850. He was a galvanizing labourer. Their son, one of at least 12 children, William John C. born 1853 of Strathbungo, (Govan) Glasgow was a tinsmith. He died in 1926. His third son was my grandfather, William John C. (1892). Killed in France Oct 17, 1918. Elizabeth Wells 1836 I could only find William Wells in the 1881 census in Scotland. The rest may have moved or died before 1881. Mary Ann lived until at least 1881 and may have died as late as 1917. However, some of the Caldwells moved to Durham County in the late 1880s and William Caldwell jr. returned to Scotland in 1893. William Caldwell sr. and Mary Ann may have remained in Durham County and died there. Dates are approximate as they are based on census data.
bw.caldwell Carmel Piccolo STAFFORD / TEMPLEPATRICK / PAISLEY / BLANTYRE My grandmother's maiden name was Susan Eleanor Wells - daughter of William Wells (and obviously named after his two youngest sisters, Susan and Eleanor). William and his brother Richard Perry Wells migrated to New Zealand on a ship called the Lancashire Witch - which docked at Lyttelton (Christchurch) in 1863. William married and had a family in New Zealand (my grandmother was born in Timaru), but at some stage the family moved on to Australia (at one time it was all called New South Wales - which governed NZ, so movement was unrestricted. I don't even know whether they would have been regarded as emigrating to NSW). Richard stayed on in NZ. The current generation of our family had been unable to find out much about our Great Grandfather William until our Aunty Ella (my father's sister - Susan Eleanor's daughter) left among her "things" a cutting from a (C1915) NZ newspaper, with a coverage on Mr Richard Perry Wells, farmer, of Gapes Valley. In it, he proudly talked about being from Blantyre, and of his father Joshua (as in Brian's entry above ) being in the military. (If you "Google" Gapes Valley New Zealand, you will find a good coverage on Richard, in which his brother William is mentioned). They must have left Blantyre the year after their father died. My grandmother (William's daughter, Susan Eleanor) died when we were very young, and we never met any of her family - which was widely scattered. She was born at Timaru, in New Zealand. At some stage the family moved to Echuca (in Victoria), where they ran a pub of some kind (Echuca was a big river port for the paddle steamers). They did run foul of the law on several occasions, according to the Echuca Court records. Later on (when my grandmother was about 9), they travelled by bullock dray from Echuca to start a new life in northern NSW. Apparently William and Elizabeth (?) (nee Ramsay) - my G-Grandparents - separated or divorced after moving to northern NSW, and she and most of my grandmother's siblings went back to New Zealand, to her family there. I don't even know who these siblings were, but there were some - notably a brother (Robert) who apparently lived at Mallanganee in northern NSW. I seem to recall some mention that William Wells lived with him for some time. I don't know whether William lived with my grandparents at any stage (I think he did - early in their marriage, at North Creek), but I understand that eventually he, too, went back to NZ, and died in Timaru - which is near the afore-mentioned Gapes Valley. Susan Eleanor married my grandfather Dugald Brown and they farmed at North
Creek and Uralba (rural districts around Ballina), until finally retiring to
Ballina. My father's eldest brother was named William (obviously after his
grandfather), but he died of polio aged about 11 early in the 1900's and is
buried in the Pioneer Cemetery at East Ballina. His headstone there carries a
memorial notice to his grandfather, William, as well. (We used to always
wonder why William Wells didn't have a grave of his own there). I think they
were all still pretty close, because the whole of my father's family visited
rellies in NZ around 1913 or so, when my father was about 3 yrs old. There is
a family photo floating around somewhere of a HUGE tribe of people posing -
maybe William Wells could be one of them. Unless they went over for his
funeral. As late as the late 1940's/ early 50's, my cousin Geoff Gray (Aunty
Ella's son - Susan Eleanor's grandson) spent a holiday with that part of the
family on their farm in in New Zealand.
