4. William Henry Wheelock, born 27 Nov 1953

Notes:

She was born in Adrian and lived most of her life there. She and her husband retired to Tuscon, Arizona, where Helen died 9 Feb 1987, survived by her sons John C. Wheelock of Tuscon, Charles B. Wheelock of Houston, Texas, James A. Wheelock and his wife Nancy, of Tuscon, and William H. Wheelock, and his wife Mary, of Maple Heights, Ohio.¹

Research Notes for Helen Hiftline:

She was C. Helen Wheelock in the 1940 census, age 29, living with her husband and their son in Adrian, Michigan. The 5 May 1983 obituary of her sister, Elda Hiftline Thompson, of Adrian, identifies Mrs. George (Helen) Wheelock of Tuscon, Arizona as her sister, and Henry Hiftline of Jasper as her brother, implying Helen's maiden name was Hiftline.² Indeed, in the 1940 census, Harry Hiftline, Elda M. Hiftline and their sister, Helen C. Hiftline, were all living in Adrian with their parents, John C. and Mary S. Hiftline.
