Known Wells Photo taken 1883
The truly known people in this photo are Adults, sitting: Samuel Wells and Cynthia Ross Wells. The little girl on Cynthia's lap we know to be Polly Jane Wells b. 1882. The little boy on the left front should be Zenos Wells, boy center should be Oran Wells, boy far right should be Elbert Elmer. This is where it gets fuzzy for us. The little boy standing beside Samuel could be Elby Everett Wells or Orval Fisk Wells we can't be sure. The last person should be Amy Estelle Wells back center. Addendum: Can the child on Cynthia’s lap be a boy and not Polly? Is the “dress” a girl or boy’s clothing.

After researching this picture we find that Polly was not born yet when this picture was taken. She was born in 1882 and died in 1883. The little boy standing on the left is Orval Fisk Wells, the little girl behind is Amy Estelle Wells, the little boy standing on the right is Elby Everett Wells. Elbert Elmer Wells is standing in front. the child to his right is Oran Alanson Wells and the baby is Zenos L. Wells. We thought the baby was a girl because of the dress. However, it turned out not to be correct.
