Notes:

David Wheelock's ancestry is not known. There is no birth record. His administrations of estate (Worc Probate 63646, 63647) do not name Wheelock relatives. No members of his Wheelock family stepped up to serve as guardians for his children when he died (Worc Probate 63595). The death certificate of his daughter, Abigail (Wheelock) Taylor indicates that he was born in Leominster (MA vol. 1905/55 death, p. 209). Without citing his reasons, Rev. Frederick Lewis Weis places him in the family of Abner Wheelock and Mary Brown in his book "Early Families of Lancaster, Massachusetts", 1941.

David died when most of his children were too young to care for themselves; his widow Naomi did not have the means to care for them. In 1824, Benjamin Fairbanks of Sterling, Naomi's brother, was appointed guardian of Mary A, Eliza, Miriam, Sophia, Dorothy Wheelock, minors and over the age of fourteen years; and Charles, Abigail, Oricy Ann, and George Wheelock, minors under the age of fourteen.¹

David and his wife Naomi are commemorated on a plaque on the central monument in the George H. Taylor lot (Section 7, Lot 80) in Evergreen Cemetery, Leominster. No separate gravestones have been found for either.²
