Berry Wells, brother of Henry Wells of Jacksonville, Ga. amassed over 10,000 acres of land around what is now Cook, Berrien and Lowndes counties in the 1800's. Unfortunately the Civil War came and he lost most of his wealth. Henry Wells and Molsey Williams were the ancestors of most of the Wellses of Telfair County.[Photo and info courtesy of Linda Meadows of Adel, Ga.]
