Subject: [CAN-ONT-CENSUS-1871] 1871 Lawrence Wells Look up Leeds County
Date: Thu, 9 Oct 2008 11:04:09 -0500


Hello,

I would be grateful if someone could look up the information on Lawrence
Wells for me.

WELLS , LAWRENCE
Age [75] Birthplace [RUSSIA] Religion [ JU] Ethnic Origin [ SCOTCH]
Occupation [ STONECUTTER]
District [67] Sub District [A] Division Page [2] Page [21] County [LEE]
Description [Leeds (front) & Lansdowne Twps.]

In the 1851/2 Census in Elizabethtown, I believe this same man says
that he was born in Scotland and that he is Presbyterian!!! In 1871 he says
he was born in Russia and is Jewish!

A death record for Lawrence Wells in 1877 says he was born in
Scotland.

I would be very interested in knowing who he is living with in 1871.
In 1885, I found a death record for a Jemima Wells, relict of Lawrence
Wells.

Thanks so much!

Tricia
