According to "The Story of Colonial Lancaster", by Marion Fuller Safford, 1937, The Tuttle Publishing Company, Rutland, Vt. Timothy Wheelock (from Lancaster, MA) participated in an "unsuccessful, even disastrous expedition against Canada", in or around 1688. Conducted by the Royal Governor of the Commonwealth, Governor Phips, this expedition resulted from the ongoing conflict between Britain and France. Timothy Wheelock, and the four other Lancaster soldiers who participated in this conflict were not properly paid until "50 years later" when land grants were made to their heirs.
William S. Tilden, in "The History of Medfield" writes that Timothy seems to have been incapable of taking care of himself. In 1699, a special town meeting was called (in Medfield) to see what to do about Timothy Wheelock. Voted "to pay out of the town treasury to John Arnold, prison keeper, to take the best and most prudent care of Wheelock". In 1749, Joseph Wheelock of Lancaster deeds lands to Ephraim Wheelock of Medfield "for taking care of my brother Timothy Wheelock." He died in Medway.
