I don't know. If you can get enough participation from the family for the
information to be clear, maybe. From your sample alone I doubt it. I
think you may have indicated there might be siblings of your father or
certainly other Wells who would participate. In your case we would need to
find some of the descendants of the other lines in question to see what
matches up.

I thnk we probably should take this discussion off the list before we bore
the others to death.
