3. Max Moore Wheelock, born 26 Aug 1875, probably Martinsburg, Keokuk, IA
4. Celia Vera Wheelock, born 13 Feb 1883, Moline, Rock Island, IL

Notes:

Arthur Wheelock came to Moline in 1880 and took the position of bookkeeper with the Moline Paper Company, continuing in this capacity three years, when he became superintendent of the company's mill, which position he held until the time of his death.¹

Research Notes:

Historical Encyclopedia of Illinois, and History of Rock Island County says he was born in Trenton Center, Wisconsin; whereas his obituary says his parents settled "near Fox Lake, Dodge County, where Arthur was born Sep 21, 1846."²

Trenton, Wisconsin, is five miles from Fox Lake, and is where his mother's parents (Thomas and Lucy Prentice) lived in 1850. It is entirely plausible that his mother gave birth at her parents house. The information in Historical Encyclopedia of Illinois, and History of Rock Island County almost certainly comes from a member of the family, and for that reason is credible.

1. Elsey K. Wheelock, born about 1825
2. Edward Wheelock, born about 1830
3. Daniel K. Wheelock, born 30 Apr 1833, East Cambridge, MA

Notes:

Ebenezer's death record does not identify his parents, nor has any birth record been found. Per death record, he was born in Rhode Island, but census records (e.g. 1850 census) say Massachusetts.

He had a grandson named Ebenezer Handy Wheelock (son of Daniel K.), which, along with his Rhode Island birth suggest he was the son of Phyletus Wheelock and Avis Handy. Carlyle Capron Wheelock, "Wheelock Genealogy" manuscript, agrees with this assessment, and identifies his middle name as "Handy". CCW gives birth date 8 Oct 1796, no source cited.

Notes:

His obituary, published in the Watertown Daily Times (Watertown, NY), 30 July 1908 reads as follows:

"William A. Wheelock, aged 84 years, died last night at the home of his daughter, Mrs. S. B. Embery, at 800 Main street east. Mr. Wheelock came here from Cape Vincent where he had spent most of his life about nine months ago when failing health necessitated that he receive careful attention. He was a man of vigorous personality, well liked for his kindly chateristics. He was a highway commissioner of the town of Cape Vincent for a time and discharged the duties of that office very acceptably. The body will be taken to Cape Vincent tomorrow morning for funeral and interment."
