I am looking for any info on Alexander Thomas
Wells, born 12/23/1882 in
New York to Alexander William
Wells born 8/8/1856 in NYC and Anna Marie (or Maria)
Woodburn born 1860 in
Dublin, Ireland. Alex Thomas married Jeanette Thomas, born 1880 in
New Jersey. They are the parents of Eva Marie
Wells, born 4/6/1891 in NYC. She married Walter Samuel
Bayless, born 11/20/1879 in Waynesville, Ill to Francis
Bayless, born in 1848, and Margaret
Riley born in 1850.
Alex Thomas started in NYC making Curtains, possibly costumes for Vaudeville, but eventually made his way west to
Oregon, where my maternal grandmother, Eva Madeline
Bayless Norris was born (Portland) 4/7/1915.
Any info would be appreciated on either Alex Sr. or Jr.
Thanks,
Lynda Ball
