1. Hattie Wheelock, born 1862, NY
2. Flora Belle Wheelock, born 22 Feb 1867, Glenwood, NY

Notes:

According to the Petition for Administration of his father's estate (Erie County Surrogate Court File # 24272), Orlando lived in South Bend, Indiana, in 1884, when the petition was filed. Orlando Wheelock appears in the 1870 (pg 430) and 1880 (page 450) Federal Census, living in Portage, St. Joseph Co, Indiana. The 1870 Census shows him age 36, butcher, born in NY, living with Susan, age 31, born in NY, Hattie, age 8, born in NY, and Flora, age 3, born in Indiana.¹ The IGI gives a marriage for Orlando Wheelock and Susan Foote, 6 Apr 1857, Glenwood, Erie Co, NY. Marriages Published in the Christian Intelligencer of the Reformed Dutch Church From 1830 to 1871 (Online database: NewEnglandAncestors.org, New England Historic Genealogical Society, 2003), gives a marriage date of 14 May 1857.

Note that Orlando's brother, Lewis, lived in South Bend, Indiana for a time, sharing the same occupation as his brother - "Agent for the Iron Fence".

Orlando was 66 when he died 7 Nov 1900 per South Bend death record.

Though Hattie Wheelock, age 8, was living in the household per 1870 Census, she is not the daughter of Orlando and Susan. She is not listed as a child in the Foote Genealogy; and a descendant indicates that she was the daughter of Louise Ellis (sister of Edward Ellis - Irena's husband). Her father was a Wheelock, probably a brother of Orlando, but it is not known who. She was adopted by David D. Barrett, of Concord, NY between 1870 and 1880. She married George Priel.
