Notes:

According to "The Story of Colonial Lancaster", by Marion Fuller Safford, 1937, The Tuttle Publishing Company, Rutland, Vt. Timothy Wheelock (from Lancaster, MA) participated in an "unsuccessful, even disastrous expedition against Canada", in or around 1688. Conducted by the Royal Governor of the Commonwealth, Governor Phips, this expedition resulted from the ongoing conflict between Britain and France. Timothy Wheelock, and the four other Lancaster soldiers who participated in this conflict were not properly paid until "50 years later" when land grants were made to their heirs.

William S. Tilden, in "The History of Medfield" writes that Timothy seems to have been incapable of taking care of himself. In 1699, a special town meeting was called (in Medfield) to see what to do about Timothy Wheelock. Voted "to pay out of the town treasury to John Arnold, prison keeper, to take the best and most prudent care of Wheelock". In 1749, Joseph Wheelock of Lancaster deeds lands to Ephraim Wheelock of Medfield "for taking care of my brother Timothy Wheelock." He died in Medway.

On 29 July 1749, Joseph Wheelock of Lancaster, quitclaimed an 18 or 20 acre parcel of land in Medway to Ephraim Wheelock of Medfield. Joseph referred to this parcel as "formerly granted to my grandfather Ralph Wheelock for consideration of taking care of my brother Timothy Wheelock."¹

On 27 March 1754, the children of Samuel Wheelock of Shrewsbury, his heirs, "in consideration of the support of our Uncle Timothy Wheeler [sic, Wheelock] of Medway," quitclaimed their interest in the same parcel of land to Ephraim Wheelock. The deed refers to Timothy Wheelock as "non-compos mentis," the brother of Samuel Wheelock of Shrewsbury (deceased), and Joseph Wheelock of Lancaster.²
