Marion was the first child of Marion Brown and Walter Fawcett. Born in Paisley, Scotland, in 1903, she was at least the third generation of Marions, dating back to her grandmother, Marion Mackay.
Marion lived for a while at 14 Clarence St in Paisley, a 3 story brownstone, on a street filled with brownstones.
At the age of 7 her mother died, shortly after giving birth to her sister, Ada.
After becoming a widower, her father decided to move the family to Canada. He left the children behind in Scotland while he went to Canada and found employment. It is uncertain who took care of Marion and her three siblings while her father was in Canada. Perhaps they stayed with relatives, or perhaps they stayed in the care of the church.
When her father found employment with the Hudson Bay Company in Canada, he sent for the four children. Family history has it that Marion and her siblings nearly crossed the Atlantic on the Titanic (which sunk on 15 Apr 1912). But for reasons unremembered, they sailed another vessel, and arrived safely in Canada in 1912. The port of entry is uncertain. At the time, Marion was 9 years old.
As a young woman, Marion found her way down to Warren, Pennsylvania where she became a student nurse at Warren State Hospital. Here she met Ellis Wheelock. They struck up a relationship and were married. Ellis was a widower, having previously married Josephine Else, who later died of tuberculosis.
Marion and Ellis lived in Russell, Pennsylvania, where they ran a chicken farm. Ellis had three children from his previous marriage (William, Robert, and Harry), two of whom lived with them. Marion had two children with Ellis, Walter and Betty.
In 1963, long after the children had left home for lives of their own, Marion's husband died of coronary insufficiency .
Later, Marion married Andrew Lindell, a long time friend of the family. They lived together for awhile in Warren, Pa. After Andrew died, Marion's mental faculties deteriorated. She began to loose her short term memory, and it became dangerous for her to live alone. In the early 1970's she was admitted to a nursing home in Chambersburg, Penn. where she lived out the remainder of her life. For most of her time in the nursing home, she had no memories at all of her family, or her past.
In early 1995, she passed on quietly in the night. She was laid to rest at Pinegrove Cemetery, in Russell, Pa. with Ellis.

Elijah and his wife Maria were living in Union Wisconsin, Aug 1875. (Source: "Wheelock Genealogy" by Carlyle Capron Wheelock and Winifred (Thomson) Gonseth, 1955). Marcus Warren Waite made the following notes about this family: "About twenty years ago [1922], Mrs. Henry H. Wheelock of Prescott, Wisconsin, compiled the following ancestral line to her husband. Luther Wheelock and wife Nancy St. John had son Orlando Wheelock, born at Pompey, NY, who married Maria Howell. Orlando and wife were the parents of Henry Howell Wheelock, born at Burlington, Wisconsin who married Mary Bascon (who compiled the lineage). H. H. Wheelock and wife Mary Bascom were the parents of Frank Bascom Wheelock born at Union, Wis., who married Jean Hanna and had two sons, Robert and Donald Wheelock, also of Horace Wheelock, who married Jane Hawbecker and had children John, Theodore and Dorothy Wheelock. Letters to the Wheelocks of Prescott, Wis., in 1942 are returned as unknown and unclaimed." (Src: "New England Ancestry of the Wheelock Family of Pompey, New York", compiled by Marcus Warrent Waite, 1942, 20 pages, Onandaga Public Library.)
