THEODORE WELL, 95, PAST HEAD OF OHIO GAR, DIES
GUERNSEY CO'S LAST CIVIL WAR VETERAN
Theordore Wells, 95, Guernsey County's last surviving veteran of the Civil War and one of Cambridge's oldest residents, passed away Monday evening at 6:30 o'clock at his home, Clark St. and Edgeworth Ave., following a brief illness of complications incident to advanced age.
Comrade Wells and his wife participated in the Victory Parade, which officially opened the sale of Defense Stamps and Bonds here on Dec. 18th, and he had been bedfast since two days after the parade.
BORN NEAR PLAINFIELD
The deceased was born near Plainfield, Coshocton County, on March 1, 1846, a son of Isaac and Mary A Smith Wells. He lived there until he was 13 years of age when he moved to Mt. Pleasant, Jefferson County, after his mother married again following the death of his father in 1856.
ENLISTS IN ARMY
Remaining in Mt. Pleasant until the Civil War he enlisted in Company F. 96th Ohio Volunteer Infantry, when but two months short of being 18 years of age. He was sent to Chattanooga and remained there until 1864, when he joined the forces of General Wm. T. Sherman in his famous march to the sea.
WOUNDED IN ACTION
A musket ball cut short Comrade Wells' participation in the famous march for he was shot at Kenesaw Mountain, GA., on June 27, 1864. He rejoined his regiment early in the winter of 1865 at Raleigh, N. C., but Lee's surrender to Grant came shortly after that.
In the spring of 1866, Mr. WElls came to Guernsey County and entered in business at Senecaville. Not satisfied with results of the new enterprise, he disposed of his interests and moved to Flat Ridge community, Jefferson township, where he boarded at the home of Abner Howell, father of a six-year-old daughter, Amanda, who many years later became Wells' second wife.
RETIRES ACTIVE LIFE
Mr. Wells followed the carpentry trade, dairy work and farming until about nine years ago when he retired. He farmed in Guernsey county about 25 years. He then returned to Mt. Pleasant, remained there for about 10 years and then moved to Cadiz from which he place he moved to Cambridge about 4-1/2 years ago.
His first wife was Miss Isabelle Ferguson of Indian Camp, who died in 1931. On April 21, 1939, he was married to Mrs. Amanda Howell Kennedy, and they moved to the home on Clark St., where his death occurred. In addition to his widow he is survived by three children, Mrs. Rupert Kaufman, Cadiz, Craig Wells, Mt. Pleasant, and Elmer Wells, Freeport.
HONORED BY VETERANS
Following the war, Mr. Wells became active in veterans' affairs and was several times commander of the J. S. McCready Post No. 456 Grand Army of the Republic, at Cadiz. He also served as commander of the department of the Ohio G. A. R. and was a member of a number of commissions fo the national organization.
The deceased led an exceedingly active life and was held in high esteem by a legion of firends. He was a member of the Presbyterian church and was an elder of the Mt. Pleasant Presbyterian church.
The body was removed to the Stevens & McCracken funeral home, S. Eighth St.
Funeral services will be conducted Thursday at 10 a.m. at the home, by Rev. C. K. McGeorge of the First U. P. church, with additional rites at 2 p.m. at the Cadiz Presbyterian church with the pastor, Rev. Mr. Lippincott, in charge. Burial will be made in CAdiz cemetery.

- Obituary: 31 December 1941; Ohio, USA; NATIVE CIVIL WAR VETERAN STRICKEN!
Another grand old man and veteran of the Union's army, Comrade
Theodore Wells, died at his home near Cambridge on Monday night, December 29, aged 95 years. While not a native of Harrison County,
he lived there for almost thirty years.
He was born near Pleasant Grove, Jefferson County, and enlisted in Co. F, 98th 0. V. I., serving eighteen months. He was severely wounded on Kennesaw Mountain, losing two ribs, but was sufficiently, recovered to go with Sherman on his march to the Sea, and take part in the Grand Review at Washington.
He continued active in veteran's affairs, serving as state commander of the G. A. R. in 1938, traveling and speaking much to the detriment of his health. His last public appearance at Cadiz, was on Decoration Day;
when he and his friend and comrade Marion Barrett, joined in the observance at the Cadiz cemetery. Mr. Wells was a farmer, operating near Cambridge, at Tiltonsville, and in Green township, where he moved in 1909. He moved to Cadiz and lived with his daughter Mrs. Rupert Kaufman. His wife, who was Miss Isabelle Ferguson, died about six years ago and, in 1939, he was married to Mrs. Amanda (Howell) Kennedy, near Cambridge, where he lived since.
Surviving from his first marriage with Mrs. Kaufman, are two sons, Craig of Mt. Pleasant and Elmer of Freeport, R. D.
He was an elder in the Mt. Pleasant Presbyterian church, and a splendid survivor of the Boys In Blue.
It is probable that services will be from the Cadiz Presbyterian Church on New Year's afternoon, Thursday at 2:00 o'clock, in charge of Dr. R. P. Lippincott, with burial at Cadiz.
