~This second marriage was performed by a Congrregational minister, a Rev Charles Cook:
From a Newspaper clipping (From Galena?):
"A very Happy but strictly private wedding took place at Mr Hiram Well's Residence in Park City, Utah, April 21 (1890). The Contracting parties being Mr J.F.Wells, of Park City, and Miss Annie Baldwin, of Chicago. The impressive ceremonywas performed at 8:30 pm, by Rev Charles Cook. the brife looked very pretty in Lavender silk, and was the recipient of many beautiful and usful gifts. The young lady is a member of an old galena family, is left here about a year ago, to make her home in Chicago.
Had Joseph lost faith in the LDS church by this time?? Were his Brother William and his wife Elizabeth strong in the faith at the time?? Would they have been happy for it to have occurred, if they were still strong in the faith?? It would be interesting to know thier thoughts at the time.Twin Brother is Hyrum Wells. Fraternal twins based upon a letter from Annie Baldwin to her mother commenting on how much Joseph and Hyrum look alike, not on how hard it is to tell them apart.
Unknown if the use of the middle name Fell is assumed or given. Death Certificate for Annie T. Baldwin shows his name as Joseph F. Wells. Original birth record does not show a middle initial or name.
Resided: Bradford, Yorkshire, England, then Salt Lake City, Utah (1870 and 1880 Census), then Park City, Utah, then Richfield, Utah (possible visiting his parents). Moved to Chicago in 1891.From a letter written by Annie Baldwin Wells to her mother on 4/23/1890, Joe has a sister who married a Gibson (Scotsman), had 6 children, one that just died, and lives 4 miles down the road from them in Park City, Utah. Which sister is un-identified. This should be Mary Ann.
From the IGI, a Charles John Gibson is shown as a relative to William Hyrum Wells at his birth in 1883.Birth Certificate shows his Name as Joseph Wells, born at 1:45 AM on 3/29/1854 at home, 21 North Street, Bradford.
Also incorrectly reported as 3/29/1855.
A handwritten note in an old ledger book states "Joseph F Wells Born in Bradford Yorkshire - Eng - Mar 29 - 1854 11-45 PM" This is incorrect..
Died 10/21 or 10/22 1912. Cause of death was a Stroke (Apoplexy). Cemetery records report cause of death was a Hemmorage on 10/20/1912.
From Annie Baldwin Wells journal, he "dropped dead in the bath room" on 10/21.
From the church bulletin, he died the morning of Oct. 21. Funeral was at the home on 10/22 in the evening, then his body was shipped to Galena.
From a letter to her sister (not Frances, or Emma, or Margaret) on Oct 26, he had gotten up to go to the toilet between 8:30 and 9 AM, all was well. She went down stairs and heard a door slam closed. Returned upstairs and tried to open the bath room door. Could open only a little, and saw him lying on the floor.
Message from source Royce says this actually a Confirmation.

Departed from New York to Wyoming, Nebraska (south of Omaha) where the Mormon Wagon Trains were assembled for the trip to Salt Lake City. Left Wyoming, Nebraska in the John R. Murdock company on 6/29/1864. The Wagon Company contained 78 people. Arrived in Salt Lake City on 8/26/1864.The ships roster shows the following Wells aboard: Alfred, Louis, Henrietta, Hyrum, Joseph, George, Mary Ann, and William. The entry for Louis Wells is beleived not to be part of the family, as their Louis remained in England. This Louis did not appear on the Wagon Train Rosters.
The Wagon Train Journal History roster shows the following Wells, as a family: William (44), Henrietta (41), George (15), Alfred (12), Joseph (9), Hyrum (9), and Mary Ann (6). All were from Bradford. No other Wells are contained on the roster.

!Information taken from an envelope sent from Bingham Canyon, Utah.
Annie Torode "Daisy" Baldwin-7030
The names of Will, Frank, and George are reported to be cousins. These should be the Burgess family.
Cousin to Dave Pate - Not clear in the context if it was Annie Baldwin Wells or MBW Sr. Based upon source Pocket Diary, Emma Baldwin references Cousin Dave and Auntie. Based upon this, Dave Pate is probable a second cousin to MBW and first cousin to Annie Baldwin.
Occupation reported to be Housewife.
From the letters between Annie and her mother:Married in Joe's rooms at the house. Another letter, she can hear Hyrum, Lizzy & the kids at night when Joe is working. Suspect Joe & Hyrum jointly owned a house.
Cried only once since arriving, that was when Joe was gone before getting married. Another letter indicated she was spending her first spring and early summer in Park City.
Her stove was in Hyrum's rooms at the home
Her furniture had not arrived by the wedding, but was there 10 days later (5/1).
She had been eating at Hyrum's. Sounds like she may have been living there before the wedding.
Not going to fix up the house too much, plan to move to Chicago in a year or 2.
Joe & Hyrum have a restaurant that is being moved or repaired.
Joe reads to her and they call it "going to school". He is a fast learner she states.
She plays the organ. She also paints. Mentions a picture she painted in Hazel Green.
States in a letter that she is glad to have come out (to Park City) for Joe's sake. Also mentions Chicago, implying that was home. Another letter said they would "come home to Chicago".
Mentions altitude of 800 feet (really 8000+) and the shortness of breath. "Miss Wells has been here 3 years and still has trouble. John told ...". Who is John?
