  • Notes 
    • Benjamin was the youngest son of Richard Wells. The birth date is a guess by Montgomery who believes him to be the 8th child in birth order. Benjamin inherited "Benjamin's Choice" from his father's will in 1667. He had two children by his wife, both girls who died as young infants. His wife died giving birth to his second daughter. She is buried at All Hallow's Parish.
