| − | [http://www.stjohnshistoriccemetery.com/pensacolas_heritages/fishing.htm#t_e_welles Pensacola’s Heritage at St John’s Historic Cemetery] states that Welles "was employed by Captain T. C. Cobb of Cape Cod, Massachusetts ... Subsequently, he married Caroline Brown Cobb, Captain Cobb’s daughter".

| − | Armstrong's [http://fulltext10.fcla.edu/cgi/t/text/pageviewer-idx?c=fhp;cc=fhp;xg=1;sid=d91b4bad39a5784b12f6f95a0798236d;q1=Armstrong;q=Armstrong;rgn=author;idno=WF00000021;a=51;view=jpg;node=WF00000021%3A20;seq=241;size=s ''History of Escambia County''] states "Mr. Welles was married June 24, 1882 to Carrie B. Cobb, a daughter of James and Caroline Burton Cobb, of Pensacola, Fla."

| − | Although, The St. John's site claims that the info is "according to [Welles'] grandson, Bill Langford"...

| − | :You got me. I would lean towards the Armstrong text as well, as it seems to be more authoritative. I didn't see it in the links, but was [http://files.usgwarchives.org/fl/escambia/bios/welles47gbs.txt this] one of your sources, or does it just duplicate much of what's in Armstrong? There's also another [http://www.usgwarchives.org/fl/escambia/photos/bios/welles47gbs.jpg photo]. --[[User:Admin|Admin]] 07:34, 16 June 2008 (CDT)
