- Death*: 29 January 1890; Quincy, Adams Co., Illinois, USA;
Mrs. Levi Wells, one of the oldest settlers of Adams county, was buried in Friday. Deceased was the widow of the late Levi Wells, and was 88 years of age at the time of her death. She came to Adams county in 1823, when there were only twenty families in the county.
- The Quincy Daily Whig, Sunday, February 2, 1890; page 3.
__
A Pioneer's Death.
The funeral of Mrs. Wells, widow of Levi Wells, Esq., was attended from the home of her daughter, Mrs. Colonel Benneson, Third and Spring streets, yesterday afternoon. Her pastor, R. V. Atkisson, officiated at the home and cemetery services.
The pall-bearers, like the one they carried to the grave, were of Quincy's pioneers. The attendance of mourners was large.
Mrs. Wells was by several years the oldest married lady resident of Adams county; not in point of years, although she was eighty-eight; but in point of consecutive years spent in the county as wife and widow.
She came here in 1823, when there were but twenty families in the county. She was then married and had one daughter, now Mrs. Benneson. Another daughter is Mrs. Peter Keller of Denver, where she makes her home with her son and daughter.
Her husband, Levi Wells, Esq., was one of Quincy's first merchants, having a store on or near the site of Bull's bank. He owned that property, and much other property throughout the county. The beautiful premises at present occupied by Mr. Hutmacher, across Twelfth street from the Soldiers' Home grounds, was the homestead, the large brick building on it having been built by Mr. Wells.
Mr. Wells was on of the first county commissioners, the other being Willard Keyes, Esq., and Peter Journey, Esq.
Mrs. Wells, whose pilgrimage on earth ended this week, was preeminently a home woman. Her home was her world, and in it, she ruled with a kindly, Christian, affectionate disposition. When weather and health permitted, she regularly attended the Presbyterian church services, and was one of its most consistent, devoted, and zealous members. In life, she was loved; in death, she is sincerely mourned.

- Note: between 1848 and 1860; John James travelled to Canada in about 1848 for a year or so, and after coming back to Darenth for a short time went to the Australian Gold Fields and New Zealand for 12 years. He returned home and stayed until after the death of his father. He married Catherine who lived next door.
In the spring of 1871 he emigrated to Chase County, Kansas andobtained some farm land. In October of that year Catherine, who waspregnant and was accompanied by her three children, followed him toEmporia, Kansas on a Polish ship and by rail half way across America.Emporia, where John James worked in a shoe shop was about 20 mileseast from his farm land on Middle Creek, Chase Town. Soon afterCatherine arrived she gave birth to a daughter, but both died soonafter.
Source John David Wells
I do not know when John James got home from Australia but I have madean estimate of 1863 based on a series of events. The Chase CountyHistory, referring to John, states as follows: ''When a young man, hetook the advice of an old friend, George Collett, Sr., and joined himin Canada. He worked for the firm of Werry and Reed. He and Tom Reedreturned to England, remaining for a short time before going to theAustralian gold fields, where they spent twelve years with theexception of some time spent in New Zealand. Returning to England hetook care of his parents until their death.'' An obituary of GeorgeCollett, Sr. reported ''He landed in Quebec, Canada in 1848 and went toNew York the the same year.'' I gave John and Tom Reed 2 years inCanada, making the first return 1850, with a short stay at home, makesgoing to Australia in 1851. Twelve years in Australia and New Zealandmakes the second return 1863. He appeared to remain home until thedeath of his father in 1870 and on until he left for the U. S. If thisis the case.
John James, according to the Chase County History: ''He came to ChaseCounty, Kansas, in April, 1871. His wife and three children arrived inOctober of the same year. In less than a week after their arrival inEmporia the mother died leaving an infant daughter, who survived themother but a few days. The mother was buried in the Emporia Cemetery.The little girl was buried in the Elk Cemetery.'' No name is given forthe child.
John may also have been anticipating, after the death of his father,emigrating to the U. S. with a wife and family, when he marriedCatherine. He again joined George Collett, who by this time was inChase County. I judge that joining this friend, is the reason JohnJames chose Middle Creek, where George lived, to make his home.Tomstayed with the Collett family for several years after the death ofhis mother.
