Aaron and Ruth (Wiggins) Wells
Family Association

Aaron and Ruth had 15 children who mostly settled in the parts of Mason County which became Nicholas County and later Robertson County. Ruth's family was from Maryland, where Aaron came from and who his parents were is still a mystery... We do have some hope in solving this though. The worldwide Wells Association is working with us on a DNA project.

WELLS Family Reunion

Aaron and Ruth (Wiggins) Wells married July 31, 1790 in Mason County. All descendents and associated families welcome to join us on July 13, 2008; at Blue Licks State Resort Park Lodge on the Second Sunday in July; for lunch at the Lodge restaurant about 1pm local time.

We generally start arriving at 12 noon. We will have a room reserved. Lunch is at 1PM followed by a short meeting and presentation, plenty of time to visit. We are pretty informal and should be finished by 5pm. If you have something to share with the group, we'll be glad to hear from you! Please contact Jon Hagee.

Here are some details from last year's reunion:
