We are descends of the Wheeler family from Jackson Co and very interested in
connecting with anyone this late (c 1900) researching the Wheeler family.
We are in Florida for the winter; our files in VA. Have printed copy and will
research when we return.
We descend John Carr m Phoebe Wheeler m abt 1854 (record not located)
Both born and lived Jackson Co.
Phoebe descend of Elnathan Wheeler.
John and Saundra CarrQuoting Roots56 <roots56(a)comcast.net>:
On 25 August 1880 in Jackson Co., IN, a Mary HOUSE(sic) married John
WHEELER
per Jackson Co., IN Marriage Book H, Page 315. In the 1900 Carr Twp.,
Jackson Co., IN census, Mary WHEELER (widow) is living in her son's, Silas
HARRIS, dwelling. I believe that the reference to "HOUSE" as Mary's
surname
in the marriage record was incorrect and that it was actually "HARRIS".
Mary WHEELER died 23 July 1901 in Carr Twp., Jackson Co., IN per Jackson Co.,
IN Death Book 20, Page 12. There is a gravestone in the Lanning Spur
Cemetery in Carr Twp., for Mary E. HARRIS with a death date of 23 July 1901
the same date as that of Mary WHEELER.
Is Mary (HOUSE) WHEELER actually Mary E. HARRIS? If so, what happend to
John Wheeler as I've not found any death or burial record for him in Jackson
Co.?
Happy Holidays.
Allen
