The Lancaster Vital Records report the death of Joseph Wheelock, 16 Mar 1776. Since there is no further record of Joseph, it is possible the record refers to this Joseph. However, Rev. Frederick Lewis Weis in "Early Families of Lancaster, Massachusetts", 1941 does not give a death date for Joseph; and it is possible the 16 Mar 1776 date is a transcription error for 10 Mar 1778, the death date of Joseph's father.
The Lancaster Vital Records record two birth dates for Joseph: 2 Mar 1759 (pg 108) and 23 Mar 1759 (pg 82).

This is probably the Levi that settled in Antwerp, Jefferson Co, NY, in 1811. (Src: "A history of Jefferson County in the state of New York : from the earliest period to the present time", by Franklin B. Hough, Sterling and Riddell, Watertown, NY, 1857, pg 87) A Levi later appears in Genesee County, NY. In 1820, he is enumerated in Perry; in Orangeville in 1830; and in Sheldon in 1840.
