Judy Stuart judyth41@gmail.com John Jett II and Ann Wells - The Jett and Allied Families" by Jeter Lee Jett, 1977 John Jett II was the son of John Jett I and Elizabeth Triplett. He was born c. 1695 in Richmond County, Colony of Virginia. According to the book, "The Jett and Allied Families" by Jeter Lee Jett, 1977, John Jett II married Ann Wells (?). They lived on a 200 acre tract of land lying on "Muddy Creek" in Brunswick Parish, on the western end of King George County. John and Ann Jett sold this tract of land on "Muddy Creek" in 1745 to the Rev. Daniel McDonald, who later moved to Culpeper County, Virginia.
