Biography
Note
Added Mary's parents as per Tillie Bell. ( Chesley Feltham II )
There were duplicate Mary Wells here with some information related to a Mary Wells born 1818 . This information (death & birth date & birthplace) has been moved to Mary (Wells) Pond born to Simon Wells and Mary Gillingham .
Note
The following text is an excerpt from an email I received from Tillie (Perry) Bell dated 2018-03-12. I believe this information to be accurate. Chesley Feltham II 2018-03-13:
"Our Joseph Perry was born in 1812; he was baptised at 18 years of age in 1830 - C.of E. Greenspond.
His wife Mary Jane Wells was born in 1824 and their marriage date is 10/23 1840.
This is the record our family has had down through the generations; I have never had any other dates for them. "

I'm trying to verify the changes I've made to your Mary (Wells Perry). I've added Joseph Wells (Sr.) and Elizabeth Heffernan as her parents based on the fact that we each have a profile for Mary who's married to a Joseph Perry.
I did not realize that your Mary was born 1819 and mine was born 1824 could possibly represent different persons. I have been searching for any online sources but to no avail. Do you have any records to clarify Mary's marriage to Joseph Perry or even her relationship to to her other family members?
Thanks,
