Stephen fought in the Revolutionary War, serving as a Private in Captain Job Cushing's Company of Minutemen which marched in response to the Lexington Alarm of 19 April 1775.
Walter T. Wheelock lists two additional children, Stephen and Samuel, one (unspecified) having birth date 19 Feb 1795, the other a presumably later birthdate. He also indicates that some members of this family went to Eden, VT.
In 1778, Joe Grimes, Jr., of Hubbardston, deeded lands to Stephen Wheelock (Worcester County Deeds, book 79, page 127). Stephen Wheelock is enumerated in Hubbardston, MA, in the 1790 Census, with 1 male older than 16, 2 males younger than 16, and 5 females. In 1790, he deeded land to William Hunting, of Hubbardston, MA (Worcester County Deeds, Book 109, pg 103), after which he appears in no further Massachusetts Census records. In 1795 he bought 120 acres in Alstead, NH, in partnership with David Bennett of Hubbardston, MA. In 1796 the property was sold to Amos Gale; the deed was signed by Stephen Wheelock, Lucretia Wheelock, and David Bennett. (Cheshire County Deeds, Vol26, pgs 170, 174, 253.) He is enumerated in Cheshire County, NH, in the 1800 Census. His son, Emory, married Martha Hill 3 Dec 1800 in Peterborough, Cheshire Co, NH. His son Walter married Betsey Johnson 25 Apr 1806 in Marlborough, Cheshire Co, NH [See Note 1]. And the Tabitha Wheelock who married Israel Marsh 11 May 1812 in Keene, Cheshire Co, NH may have been his daughter.
His son Walter moved to Eden, VT, and first appears there in the 1810 census. The weight of evidence strongly suggests that his son Martin Wheelock moved there in a similar time frame.
The birth of his presumed son, Daniel Wheelock, is not found in the VRs, but Daniel's appearance in Eden, the naming pattern in his family, and his death record strongly suggests that he is the son of Stephen and Lucretia. Another early settler of Eden, VT, Samuel Wheelock, b. 1797, may also have been a son of Stephen and Lucretia.
Stephen Wheelock's death date is not known, but a guardianship was filed for Daniel Wheelock, in Eden, VT, in 1813 (NEHGR, Vol 66, pg 20).
NOTES
1) The marriage of Walter Wheelock and Betsey Johnson is recorded in the New Hampshire VRs; and confirmed in "Gregory Stone Genealogy: Ancestry and Descendants of Dea. Gregory Stone of Cambridge, Mass., 1320-1917", by J. Gardner Bartlett.
2) A marriage intention for Sarah Wheelock and William Murdock, was filed in Hubbardston, 13 Jan 1833.
