Yes I thought the same Sue....and I would say that Fanny was born Warragul not Warracknabeal.
CANDO

This might be the marriage of Minnie (Minietta) WELLS, not sure at all.

WELLS Minnie- Birth Place WARRAGUL
PIERCE Jno  Birth Place BRTN (Brighton)
Year 1895
Reg. Number 7014
 

Although her birth place is registered at Sale (see above), perhaps she spent some of her early life at WARRUGUL and was unsure of her birthplace when marrying.

my "Wells" come in with the marriage of Alfred and Henrietta Hodge, both born in Eng, married in Victoria, Australia 1877 and l have those families down, although at this stage still filling in some gaps.
many of my family DONT want our tree on places like ancestory, so lm jst doing what l can going bckwards from my direct line... Alfred and Henrietta had 9 kids... alfreds parents are thomas and elizabeth (brown) married eng, have date 1847 although 2bc and alfred was born 1850 (confirmed)..

lm new 2 this site and have dyslexia, so plz be patient with me

[possum b]

lm also still trying 2 source Alfreds siblings, l have the hodge family bck 2 1790 and believe that is all correct as it has come from family bibles, so the hodge clan cld also contact me if they see the link ... lm still wrking on some of those branches 2.

Hi
Great to see all three researchers of the family are working together now.
We will all look forward to watching the information come in from all sides and hopefully fill the gaps for one another

If anyone has BMD certificates, the information on them will be very welcome indeed.

Kasden may be able to tell us more about WELLS from Ohio.

Possum, may I ask you (with the best intentions ) if you would mind using whole words when you type up your posts.

Some of us here find it difficult to read your welcome information  when the words are abbreviated in such a way.

So thank you Kasden and possum b for joining in the search for answers in my fathers family history.  I am at present waiting for a birth record for his grandfather which I think would say he was born a Wells,  and took his  mothers name, father on the birth cert a mystery, hopefully more details will come in with the birth record hard copy.
I am in the process do getting a photo copy of Fanny/Frances Wells so will post that on line hopefully by tomorrow. So Kasden the relative that immigrated to NZ WHH Wells from Ohio was biracial, do you know what his heritage is.
I am also new to this site and have a very limited amount of information to go by, so there could be a bit of backwards and forwards to get the correct answers. Thanks
