Jedediah Wells
Birth about 1773 Bridgeport, Fairfield, Connecticut
Note:  THIS MAY NOT BE ONE OF THEIRS.
There was a Jedediah listed among the children on ancestry.com, but at 1784 and his sister, Ellen, was born that year.  I suppose it is possible, but when I found the death date for a Jedediah and in Connecticut, I decided that since there is no source for the parents' marriage, this is possible and doesn't conflict with the other kids.  So, he may or may not be a child.  The name is unusual enough that it caught my attention.  So, if you know for sure, please share with us.

Evans Wallace
Born 1808 Edgecomb, North Carolina
Occupation:  Doctor
Military:  Civil War - ? maybe - I'm not convinced.
Rumor:  When I looked in military records, I found an Evan Wallace (only 18 in 1860) that was in the war.  However, there wasn't anyone on the list of Quantrill's Guerillas with the surname Wallace - follow this link: http://www.kansasheritage.org/research/quantrill.html to look for yourself.  It is possible the list is not complete.  I also looked on: http://www.tngennet.org/stewart/civil.htm to see if the state of Tennessee had anything on them.  He is not listed, nor are his brothers - however, some of Evans' nephews are.  Does anyone know the truth and have sources?   
Married 1) Sally Williams abt 1828
Children: Nancy, Sally, Riley, Wilson, William. Sarah
