Arlene (Jeronime) Fitzgerald kindly supplied much of the information about the descendants of Omar Wheelock and Hattie Collier. She obtained the information from her own research, and from that of her cousin, Raymond H. Wheelock; both of whom were meticulous in their use of original records for dates.

The children of Jerome and Anna are taken from "Biographical Review, Biographical Sketches of The Leading Citizens of Livingston and Wyoming Counties, NY", Boston, Biographical Review Publishing Company, 1895.
The same book writes the following about Jerome:
Jerome S. Wheelock was but five years old when his parents came to New York; and he clearly remembers many incidents of the journey, and the pioneer life during the early years in the new home. He asisted his father with the farm and hotel work until he was twenty-one, when he started for himself in the grocery business. Soon after, he gave this up for a short time and engaged in buying standing timber, which he cut, and then rafted the lumber through the Genessee and Erie Canals to Albany. He again took up the grocery business for a period of five years, after which time farming occupied his attention; but, as this was not entirely satisfo\actory, he resumed mercantile business, carrying a general stock, continuing in this until 1884. At that time he was owner of a farm at Conesus Lake; and, as he had sold out his business, farming interested him for a number of years, until, finding a suitable purchaser, he sold out, and has since lived practically retired.
Mr. Wheelock cast his first vote with the Democrats for Polk and Dallas, and his next with the Free Soil party, for Van Buren. Then, being one of the first to realize the benefits to be derived from a change in politics, he assisted in the organization of the Republican party. He was appointed Postmaster under Lincoln's administration, his commission bearing the signature of Montgomery Blair; and the length of time he held this post shows the efficiency with which he has served the public, and the high esteem in which he is regarded.
