(See the memorial for Dr. Horace and Betsy Wellford's daughter Evelina Wellford Tompkins that shows them as her parents.)
Horace married first to Betsy Howe, second to Rebecca Plater. The following is an excerpt from a 1908 document written by Beverley Randolph Wellford, Jr. to Mary R. Wellford Wilson (original held by Susan Schueler of Akron, Ohio):
"Next to Uncle Edward was my Uncle Horace, born Oct. 4, 1790 and died May 23, 1828, 13 days after I was born. My father had been detained with my mother, and as soon after my birth as practicable he travelled the road some 70 miles to Richmond Co. on the northern neck to minister to his brother, but he arrived only in time to see him die. Uncle Horace was married twice and left three children by his first wife, and one daughter by the second. Mrs. Wilson remembers one of them, Cousin Evelina, not Evelyn, Spotswood, who, after her father's death, was always one of Uncle Charles family circle. She married very late in life and died childless. Through his other children Uncle Horace has living descendents in Virginia and Maryland."
Served as a surgeon's mate with 41 REG'T (BRAMHAM'S) VIRGINIA MILITIA during the War of 1812.
