Did the 444, 544, and 1800 use the same wheel bearings? 444-544

I've been gathering the parts to try and complete my front disc brake conversion, and I'm ready to put new bearings in the hubs. I've ordered some wheel bearings for a '61 1800 (based on the fact that the hubs for my conversion came from an 1800 and because I had seen some earlier reference to others buying them for their 444s).

I was unable to find new outer bearing races from the local Autozone, so I decided to do some searching on Autozone's and Napa's websites. Out of curiousity, I did a few searches, one based on a '61 1800, another on a '61 544, and a third on a '58 444. The 544 and 444 turned up nothing for front wheel bearings, so I'm starting to get a little bit anxious...

Is this just a lack of application knowledge on the part of the parts stores, or did I screw up and order bearings that will not work?
