No records have been found for Ammariah Wheelock, beyond those of his birth and baptism. He was alive when his father drafted his will in 1758.
Though pure speculation, it is possible that Ammariah was the father of Josiah and Obadiah Wheelock, both living in Grafton, MA.

Simeon Wheelock (1741-86) was a blacksmith in Uxbridge, MA. His shop is said to have been across the street from his house (which is still standing).
He served in the French and Indian War in 1760, and served under Col. Christopher Harris who commanded a regiment in Rhode Island.
He served in the Revolutionary War as a First Lieutenant of minute men at the Lexington Alarm in Capt. Joseph Chapin's company. He later served as Lieutenant in Captain Samuel Read's company, a regiment commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Nathan Tyler. Simeon was at the Providence, R.I. Alarm from 8 Dec 1776 to 21 Jan 1777.
He was a member of the first Safety Committee of Uxbridge. He was called to help suppress a small tax rebellion, led by Daniel Shay in Springfield. He was descending Arsenal Hill, 25 Jan 1787 and it was very slippery. He fell, probably ruptured a blood vessel, and died the next day. He is buried in Springfield.
The house he built at Uxbridge is still standing (1998). It has been restored by the Uxbridge Historical Commision, and serves as a historical landmark near the center of town.
