  • Note*: 1880; History of Polk County Iowa, 1880, union Historical Society

    WELLS, L. J.—Is a native of Montrose, Susqnehanna county, Pennsylvania, where he was born January 28, 1831. He traces his origin to English ancestry. He learned the trade of carpenter in his youth and by industry and economy, combined with good judgment, nad saved about $2,000 at the time he came to Des Moines, in 1857. It may be mentioned here that he came to the city in 1856 and purchased lots on which to erect a home. His arrival at Des Moines happened at an inopportune time. Of his savings $1,000 was invested in his home and $400 that he had deposited in bank of Ingham & Callanan was swept away in the general maelstrom of wild cat banks. Making the best of ill fortune he took fourteen legislative boarders during the winter, among whom was ex-Governor Gue, of Fort Dodge. This occupation proved a profitable means of support nntil employment was found, and from that day fortune has favored him in laboring and speculating, and to-day he is recognized among the substantial business men of Des Moines. In 1868 he engaged in his present business and owns a fine brick stable, two stories above basement, and well stocked with horses and carriages, among the finest in the city, and his character as a business man may be inferred from the success which has attended his business. He is no political aspirant, but devotes his time to his legitimate business. He has been twice married, first to Mi»s Mary E. Brown, of Pennsylvania, in 1852. She died in 1862, leaving two children: William and Jesse. He married for his second wife Miss Sarah Bailey, a native of Maryland, in 1863.
