Any idea what part of Kentucky James Wells was from?

I have an Elizabeth Wells who married an Isham Lett in Harrison county, KY in
1811 and moved to Jennings county before 1819, when their son John H Lett was
born. An older son was said to have been born 1813 in KY.

Isham Lett married Elizabeth Wells 24 Jan 1811 in Harrison co, Ky.
Thomas Wells signed as bondsman, John Conner was minister. Thomas Wells was
in Harrison co KY tax list beginning 1799 on Raven Creek; in 1815, Thomas Wells
married for a second time to Susannah Lightfoot, widow of Phillip Lightfoot
and became the guardian of her 6 minor children by Phillip in 1816. There are 5
marriages performed in Harrison county by John Conner from 1808 to 1814 for
Wells people that may be siblings of Elizabeth . William Wells to Elizabeth
Northcutt 1808, Herbert Wells and Jenny Carrick 1810, John Wells and Betsy
Lancaster 1813, Phoebe Wells and Charles Boner, 1814.

Do you know if/how your James is related to James Wells (wife named
Elizabeth, children Marency & WIlliam) who lived near Benjamin RANDALL in Jennings co
IN the 1850 census?
Or to William Wells and wife Charity Arbuckle?
Or to Samuel Wells the carpenter of Paris, Jennings, IN?
Or to William Wells and wife Martha, with daughter Charity?


Do any of these names relate to your family?
