Samuel Wells an African America who was born about 1775 and died March 3, 1880. See F.AG. Link. Was he a runaway slave? His wife Cena Wells Is buried next to him. Does she have a F.A.G Link as I’m unable to find one for her? I put LNAB as “Unknown” is that correct? We need help adding sources about his genealogy. I have added photos of his gravestone I took to help in his research. 

Pic came out sideways but when you click on it shows vertical; how odd

Need help categorizing him properly  

Thank you

I created a profile for his wife. Feel free to ask for a transfer.
Hi Aaron

Yes transfer is fine. I’ll get a grave photo for her profile

Thank you

Sorry, I only just saw this, and I do not know the answer, but it is in discussion on another thread here.  Emma McBeth is leading it through both the African-Americans and Slavery projects.
