Notes:

The birth date, Apr 1884, seems suspect, given the birth of another child in Dec 1884. Genealogies on Ancestry.com give the birth date as Apr 1883, no sources cited. There is a James E. Wheelock buried in St. Patricks Cemetery, Nevada, Story Co, IA, where many other members of the family are buried, with birth date 1883 on the headstone.
