Notes:

While not certain, the marriage location of Caroline (in Perry Co, AL, where her sister and mother lived) suggests that she is related to, and is possibly the sister of Louise A. (Wheelock) Graham, who also lived in Perry Co, AL (in Marion).

Caroline likely died before 8 Feb 1853, when William Bugg married Nancy A. James in Autauga Co, AL.¹

Spouse: Mariette A. Allen
Marriage: 1 Sep 1881, Buffalo, NY

• Marriage Certificate for Cyrus J. Wheelock and Mariette A. Allen, kindly supplied by Sam Stuhlmiller (a relative by marriage), Oct 2016, originally in the posession of Lucy E. Wheelock, daughter of Cyrus J. and Mariette.

1. Lucy E. Wheelock, born 7 Jan 1889

Notes:

In 1870 Cyrus J. Wheelock was living with his family in Concord, Erie County, New York. In 1880 the family, Cyrus J. included, was living in Colden.

Cyrus married Mariette A. Allen in Buffalo, 1 Sep 1881. He appears in the Buffalo City directory starting in 1882, first as a laborer, then a clerk. In 1884, his fathers probate records state that he was a resident of Buffalo.¹ In 1890 he was engaged in real estate, living at 286 Rhode Island St. in Buffalo. By 1893 the family had moved to 421 Norwood St, where he remained until 1905, when he last appeared in the Buffalo City Directory. In 1907, his wife, Mary Etta Wheelock, was a widow, still living at 421 Norwood Ave in Buffalo.

Per death notice in The Buffalo News, Cyrus J. Wheelock died in Newburgh, New York, 7 Jan 1906, aged 55 years, funeral to be held at the family residence, 421 Norwood Ave.²

The Buffalo newspapers are filled with multiple stories that claim Cyrus J. Wheelock led a double life. He had two families - one with his legal wife, Marietta (Allen) Wheelock, and one with Fannie Johnson, who lived near the Wheelock family in Buffalo. Cyrus travelled frequently for his real estate business, including long trips to Clevland, Ohio, where he had real estate dealings. Per newspaper articles, he bought lodging for Fanny in Cleveland, where their first child was born. When the Cleveland deal was completed, he then bought lodging for Fanny in New York City, where a second child was born. Eventually Fanny became exasperated by his broken promises to divorce his wife and marry her, with several confrontations and altercations ensuing in Buffalo.³

In 1920, Melinda G. Gilbert of Worcester filed a petition against her husband for desertion.³
