The biography of George H. Wheelock can be found in "The History of Whiteside County, Illinois", by William W. Davis, Pioneer Publishing Company, Chicago, 1908, pg. 1234.
He spent the days of his youth in his parents home, attending the public schools. To supplement his education, he attended Fulton College, and graduated in 1883. He taught for six years, then, after a two year interval as a travelling salesman, he opened a business "dealing in monuments", which he operated for eight years. Shortly after this he settled on the old homestead farm, cultivating and improving it. He specialized in raising and feeding Durham cattle and Jersey Red hogs. In addition he owned six residences in the village of Erie, from which he derived rental income.
George H. Wheelock was director of the Wheelock School in Erie, IL, for many years, most of which time he was president of the board. The school, which he attended as a lad, was built on land donated by his father.1
His obituary mentions children Harold, Howard, and Robert, and grandchildren George and Warren Wheelock, of Erie.2
