My Wells ancestors were North Carolina pioneers, arriving there in the early 1700's from England. They relocated to Tennessee in 1796, moved to Arkansas in the 1840's, some members of the family arriving in Texas in 1828 where they settled in Austin's Little Colony at Bastrop. Stirman Benton Wells moved to Quanah in the 1890's where several generations of the family later operated a sheet metal, plumbing and general construction company for many years. Many members of this family are buried in the Quanah Memorial Cemetery
