My well (about 80 years old Im told) is only 18 feet deep and 6 ft in diameter with hand laid (no mortar) sandstone walls and if you wait 30 to 60 minutes after a big rain and look down inside you see and hear water trickling in.
When all 3 kids were at home and teenagers in August when it got real dry we would run out and the water man came and dumped 2000 gallons in it which got us by as it rained in September. Since the kids have all left we dont run out anymore.

Is your sisters a shallow surface well or a deep drilled?? If its like mine I tend to believe what she was told but if its a 200 feet drilled well?????????
