James WHEELER [1753 - 1843]
While the time of James Wheeler and family came to Gibson County is given as late summer of 1805,
James states in his application for Revolutionary War pension the number of years he was living in
Indiana made the year 1808. It is stated that they came from Virginia and North Carolina.
He may have also been in Sumner County, Tennesse prior to his arrival in
Gibson County. Whether he came with just his family group or other relatives is not certain.
There were several Wheeler families in other Indiana Counties. Other records of this family of
Wheelers indicate they were living in Shelby and Deleware Counties. Another early family from
North Carolina settled east of Gibson and Posey Counties in White County, Illinois.
The following article was obtained from an early history of Gibson County, Indiana, from Princeton library.
Tartts History of Gibson County, Indiana:
"Naomi (mother) wife of Benjamin Wheeler* and sister of Charity Gifford Bolt, died March 29, 1892,
aged 86 years. Benjamin (father) died June 2, 1850 aged 57, (?) George (brother) son of
Benjamin and Naomi died December 16, 1896. ______________(sister) died ______________ age 62 years.
James Wheeler, who also had a large family. A wife, five sons and 4 daughters. He was a peculiar
sort of a man, fond of fun, and occasionally enjoyed taking part in a hand to hand fight, and at gatherings
such as log rollings or muster days. Wheeler was sure to imbibe quite freely and then get into a
misunderstanding with someone, which would generally result in a fist fight. Wheeler though a man of
small stature was very spry and active and mostly came out victorious. He settled in the timber east
about five miles from Princeton in the summer of 1805 where he erected a cabin, cleared a small tract
of land, but his subsistence for himself and family for the first year was gained principally by hunting, as
he arrived too late in the summer to make a crop. He became quite a noted hunter, and proved himself
to be quite a valuable acquisition to the settlement. He was foremost in repelling any Indian aggresions
and frequently boasted that he was not afraid of the redskins, and he proved it, because on the breaking
out of Indian troubles he promptly enlisted, as did three of his sons, and participted in the battle of
Tippecanoe. The war over and peace declared, he returned to his country home, where he lived the
quiet life of a farmer for a number of years, and he and his wife died after filling in usefulness their
allotted time. They left numerous descendants who still reside in the county.....
(continues with other early county families).
James Wheeler is buried five (5) miles southeast of Princeton, Indiana in his own private burial plot.
In 1926 the patriotic organizations of Gibson County placed a tombstone in front of the original one;
there is also a footstone. The original tombstone reads: "In memory of James Wheeler who served in
the revolutinary war five years, ten months, died the 2nd, buried with the full honors of war,
4th July 1843, Aged 90 years".

[Buckingham or Bedford County, VA], and died Aft. 1860 in Gibson County, Indiana.
She married RITCHARD INGRAM ±1812 in Unknown.
Notes for ELIZABETH WHEELER: ELIZABETH INGRAM [1790 - ]
The husband of Elizabeth Ingram may have been either Moody Ingram or Ritchard Ingram.
These are the only Ingrams listed for the 1840 Census in Gibson County.
Moody on page 245, and Ritchard on page 236.
Elizabeth is listed with Payton Wheeler on the 1850 Census. She may be a sister
and both were native to Virginia, born about a year apart. No other information
as to her husband's name. She lived in the same area that were neighbors to
James Wheeler, William R. King being one of them.
A Legal Notice in the January 29, 1924 Princeton Clarion-News adds some support
that the Ingrams were related, and Elizabeth was a Wheeler. It has to do with
Action to Quit Title to Real Estate. Elizabeth K. Holtz vs. Robert M. Evans.
It gives a long lists of individuals who might have an interest in the real
estate, although most all were long deceased. Included in this list is
"Patent Wheeler, the wife of Patent Wheeler, the unknown widow of Patent
Wheeler, the unknown heirs of .....etc." The Ingrams named are, Harvey
(the same format of Patent Wheeler is used in each named individual) Ingram,
Charlotte P. Ingram, and Daniel Ingram. Other Wheeler daughters surnames
are given also. Brokaw, Milburn, Halbrook, and William R. King is also
mentioned. He gave affidavit along with John Wheeler as to the time of death
of James Wheeler. The wife of William R. King
may have be a Wheeler. Further research is needed.

Notes for JOHN WHEELER:
Marriage Index: GIBSON COUNTY, INDIANA
Wheeler, John Spouse: Ayers, Eliza Marriage date: 16 Jun 1825
John Wheeler does not appear in Gibson County Census after 1840. William R. King
remained in Gibson County. (They both signed affidavits for Widows Pension for
Elizabeth Welch Wheeler.) A Charles Wesley Wheeler, who lived all his life in
Gibson County, listes his father as John Wheeler on his death certificate.
No evidence has been uncovered to confirm him to be the same John Wheeler.
It appears very unlikely that Charles Wheeler is the son of John and Louisa
Eliza Ayers Wheeler. The number of children are indicated as 5 sons and
4 daughters in an early history of Gibson County, Indiana.--rwwjr

Notes for HARRISON WHEELER:
(Katherine Tyree record page 131 CIVIL WAR SOLDIER LETTER)
"Civil War Soldier Wrote family Just before death.
With the advent of Memorial day interest will attach to the following letter received by the late
Minerva Wheeler from her husband, Harrison Wheeler a former resident of Princeton, while he was
serving with the 8th Indiana Volunteer Infantry in the Civil War during 1862.
'Dear wife and children: I received your letters dated March 12 and 20 and was glad to hear you were
all well. I am stouter and healthier than I have been in six months. I weight one hundred and thirty-six
pounds in my shirt sleeves and gaining all the time now. I think the hard time is over now with us. I have
sent my short coat home and your pictures and comfort and one pair of mitts for I could not carry them.
And one tactic book in care of David Archer. Take good care of the tactic book. I am going to send my
overcoat in two or three weeks. The paymaster is here now and we will get our money in a few days.
We have drawed a new suit of clothes and will send all home that is worth sending. I want to come home
when we draw our money if I can get a furlough but I don't know how it will be. Tell Mr. Sterns that I
would like to see him and Mrs. Sterns. Tell William Archer I want to come home at hay harvest to beat
him a-mowing. Tell Mr. Archer my best respects for him and all the rest. Friendship has stood true with
them and I could live and die with them. I know that no better neighbors could ever be. I got one letter
from Mont yesterday and was glad to hear from them. He said they were all well but had had a hard winter.
His letter was dated March 7. I have written seven letter to him and got two from him. If Jack is still living,
I would like to know it. You said that Sarah DePriest was sick and that George said if I was sick that he
would come after me or send money to me. I don't need any money, if he has any to spare tell him to help
you some. Now something to Caroline and John Riley. I want them to be pretty children and read their book
and tell John Riley not to go with bad boys. Try and make a little garden if you can, it will be some help to you.
Write when you can and I will do the same. So no more for the present but remain your true husband till death.
Harrison Wheeler to Minerva Wheeler and Caroline and John Riley and little Lisey, my dear little baby.
-- P.S. I sent two letters by Hugh Green annd told him to stop and tell you all about me and all the rest
and the true state of facts. That is all, write often and soon.'
"The soldier who wrote the above lettter was soon sent to a hospital where he died. Whether he ever
expected to see his loved ones again when he wrote the letter is a matter of conjecture. The baby, Lisey
alluded to in the letter is Nancy Elizabeth Mounts known as Aunt Lisey who now lives at 22 1/2 N. West St.
[This is my great aunt. She died April 8, 1950. She is the Mother of Howard, Walter and Carl Humphreys
and Mrs. Dora Forbes all of this City. This is a letter written by my Great grandpa, Harrison Wheeler
--Mary Katherine Wheeler Tyree].

Fact 13: Gibson County, Patoka TWP, Indiana Notes for REBECCA ANN LAMB:
Rebecca Ann Lamb Wheeler is listed on the 1870 Census with her father's family. The marriage to
Lewis Long in 1869 may be a different Rebecca Wheeler. With her father, John Lamb, she is still
listed as Wheeler. Children listed after her are John, age 6, Dorry J., age 4 and Rebecca, age 5 months
(born in January of 1870). A letter in the posession of Bette Millaway (descendant of Mary Jane Wheeler
Davis) states that Andrew J. Wheeler died 29 October 1866, nearly 3 months before Dorry J. was born.
Rebecca died when Dorry J. was 5 years old. There is therefore a question about a second marriage
and who was the father of the younger Rebecca born in January of 1870. The Census still lists her as
"Wheeler" as well as the three children. The Census may be in error or perhaps Lewis died before the
Census and she retained the Wheeler name.

JASPER BLACKARD, Civil War Casualty November 25, 1963
Jasper Blackard was a Private in the Fifty-eighth Indiana Infantry Regiment, Company B.
The Fifty-eighth Regiment was organized at Princeton, in October, 1861, and Henry M. Carr
was made colonel. It left for the field in December, crossing the Ohio at Louisville. Being assigned
to Wood's division of Buell's army, it marched, during the winter of 1861 and 1862, through
central Kentucky, stopping a few weeks at Bardstown, Lebanon, Spring Garden and Bowling
Green. March 1 it arrived at Nashville, remaning there until April 1, when it started for Pittsburg
Landing, reaching there on the evening of the second-day's battle of Shiloh. It engaged in the siege
of Corinth and after the evacuation of that place, marched into northern Alabama, and thence to
Shelbyville, Tenn. From here it moved to Decherd, where it lay for a few weeks, marching thence
with Buell's army via Nashville to Louisville, where it arrived October 1. From here it immediately
counter-marched to Nashville, in pursuit of Bragg's army, reaching there in the latter part of November.
November 26th the regiment moved toward Murfreesboro, and the day following charged the rebels
at Lavergne. It participated in the battles of Stone River, December 31 and January 1 and 2, 1863,
being attached to Hascall's brigade of Wood's division of the Twenty-first Corps, losing eighteen killed,
eighty-seven wounded and five missing, making a total loss of 110. The regiment remained in the
vicinity of Murfreesboro until the movement against Tullahoma was commenced, when it moved
with the army in that direction. It was in the brigade that was first to enter Chattanooga, and was
engaged in the battle of Chickamauga, losing in killed, wounded and missing, 171, out of an
aggregate of 400 engaged.
The regiment then fell back with the army to Chattanooga, and was engaged in the battle at that
place on the 23d of November, and was in Wagoner's brigade of Sherman's division, in the charge
on Mission Ridge, on the 25th of November, losing five killed and sixty-one wounded.
Jasper was one of those killed or mortally wounded in the charge on Mission Ridge.
The Regiment (550 men) mustered out July 25, 1865 at Indianapolis. During the term of service
the regiment lost in battle and disease 268 men.

35. ANDREW JACKSON5 WHEELER, SR. (SAMUEL4, James 3, CHARLES2, John1)
was born ±1831 in Gibson County, IN, and died November 18, 1895 in Portageville,
New Madrid County, MO. He married SARAH J. SEALS May 13, 1853 in Gibson County, IN.
Notes for ANDREW JACKSON WHEELER, SR.:
The "Sarah" that was first married to James Wheeler has been mistakenly referred to as "Sarah Malinda Balch"
Sarah Malinda Balch was married to another James Wheeler. As the Sarah that was married 2nd to
Andrew Jackson states that they were married 18 May 1844 (the date given has to be erroneous, marriage
record for Sarah Wheeler is 13 May 1853) she could not be Sarah Balch, because Sarah Balch and
James Wheeler were married in 1850 and still living, and listed on the 1850 Census for Knox County, Indiana.
Andrew J. Wheeler's wife was Sarah Seals (sometimes spelled Ceal) who was married to another James
Wheeler, by whom Jasper Wheeler was born in 1842. A marriage record for Sarah and James Wheeler
gives the date of marriage as 10 March 1841 in Gibson County, Indiana.
The marriage date of Andrew Jackson Wheeler and Sarah Seals presents a second problem.
Census records (1850) and the Pension record indicate that Andrew Jackson was born in 1831.
Could he have married at the age of 13 or 14? in 1844? Further evidence shows "Jackson"
Wheeler is listed with Samuel and Nancy Key Wheeler on the 1850 Census as age 19.
Andrew Jackson was not married at the time!
ANDREW JACKSON WHEELER 1831-1895
Andrew Jackson Wheeler was born in 1831, the son of Samuel and Nancy Key Wheeler and grandson
of James and Elizabeth Welch Wheeler of Buckingham County, Virginia and pioneers of Gibson County,
Indiana. He is listed as Jackson on the 1850 Census with his father.
In the "Declaration for Original Pension of a Widow--Child or Children Under Sixteen Years of Age Surviving",
dated 18 February 1896, Sarah gives several dates. Her age is given as 72, making her born about 1724 or
1723, depending on month she was born. Andrew, her husband served in the Civil War from October 1, 1861
to January 24, 1864. Andrew died 18 November 1895 about 4 miles from Portageville, Missouri. She states
she was married under the name of Sarah "Wheeler" to the said Andrew J. Wheeler on the 18th of May 1844
(see above for correct date). She said she was first married to James Wheeler, who died July 20, 1843.
She said that she had six living children all over sixteen.
On 13 May 1853 Jackson married the widow of James I. Wheeler , Sarah J. Seals Wheeler. They were married
by Justice Barrett in Gibson County, Indiana. They lived in Decker Township, Knox County, Indiana
according to the 1860-70 Census.
Listings on the 1860 Census for Decker Township, Knox County, Indiana (Decker Township is in southern
Knox County just north of White River which serves as county line between Knox and Gibson Counties),
shows three Wheeler households Andrews J. Wheeler (family #10, page 935) Samuel and Nancy Key Wheeler
(family #12, page 966), and Joel Wheeler (family #13, page 966).
Listed with Andrew and Sarah are four (4) children: Orlanda, age 8; Nancy, age 5; Martin A., age 3; and
Catharine, age 1.
Listed for Decker Township on the 1870 Census are William R. Wheeler (family #7, page 2), Andrew J.
Wheeler (family #19, page 3), Nancy Wheeler (Joel Wheeler's wife family #27, page 4) and Henderson
Wheeler (family #42, page 6).
Additional children listed for Andrew and Sarah on the 1870 census are: Suffronia, age 10; Silas, age 5
(Andrew served in Civil War which accounts for the 5 years between children); Savannah, age 4; Matilda,
age 2 and Calvin, age 5 months born in December.
Listed with Andrew J. and Sarah on the 1870 Census of Knox County was his mother, Nancy Key, age 75.
There is one difficulty in the 1860-70 census. in the 1870 census at age 13 is listed Andrew J. whereas the
1860 has Martin A. at age 3. There are marriage records in Knox County for Andrew and for M. A. Wheeler.
On the 1880 Census for Harrison Township, Knox County is a Horace Wheeler (Page A291, #287).
Listed with him is a nephew, Calvin Wheeler age 11. This appears to be the youngest son of Andrew J.
Wheeler. Horace is age 26 on the census but is listed as born in 1850 on the 1900 Census. Horace B.
Wheeler's mother is Gemima, born January 1818 in Indiana. What relationship exsists between
Andrew and Horace has not been determined.
The 1900 Census lists Horace B. Wheeler as born in September 1850. His wife Mary E. born March 1854
in Illinois. A daughter , Ida born March 1878 and grandson, Russell born December 1899, and his mother
Gemima born January 1818. The 1920 Census lists Horace as age 70 and grandson Russell age 20.
Andrew Jackson served in the Civil War from October 1861 to January 24, 1864 as private in 58th Indiana
Volunteers Co. C Commanded by William A. Downey. He re-enlisted as a veteran and served under Capt.
Augusta Milburn, 58th Regiment Indiana, Vet. Company C. He mustered out July 25, 1865 at Loudon
County, Tennessee.
A "Delclaration for Original Invalid pension" was made, New Madrid County, Missouri on
August 3, 1895 at age 64. He stated that he suffered from rheumatism in back legs and shoulder.
His pension claim number was 955.786.
The following affidavit was given in New Madrid County, Missouri, March 26, 1892:
"that he lost his hearing in the heavy cannonading at Chattanooga, Tenn., in the fall of 1863.
Source is not due to vicious habits and is of a permnant disability. He further states that the
instigation was first caused by the signal cannon of 100# was fired to advance and then kept
up by artillary firing until the fight was over, the older I get the worse my hearing gets.
March 26/92
I futher declare I never have applied for a pension since 1891. I futher declare, I made
application before Dr. Peck of Vincennes, Ind. and do not know his report. It was in the year 1867
and I had to travel for my health and could not attend to it."

Notes for SARAH J. SEALS:
Parents of Sarah Seals: Mother was Mary (listed with grandson on 1860 census).
Father may have been James or Thomas who are listed on the 1850 Census for Gibson
County, Patoka Township. Her mother was from North Carolina.
Dates given in relationship to marriages and deaths are in question as various records give
conflicting dates. The parents of James Wheeler is not known. Sarah states that James died
July 20 1843. His son, Jasper N. is said to have been born November 18, 1842 (Obituary of Jasper).
Sarah Then stated that she married Andrew J. Wheeler 18 May 1844 (this date is in error as
record of marriage is 13 March 1853, which means Andrew was 22 when he married) by Justice
Barrett in Gibson County, Indiana. Some have mistakenly concluded that the wife of Andrew J.
Wheeler was Sarah M. Balch, which is incorrect, as the James Wheeler and Sarah M. Balch were
listed together on the 1850 Census for Knox County, Indiana. Thus it is Sarah Seals/Ceals, widow
of another James Wheeler who married Andrew Jackson Wheeler. There is a possibility that James
was a brother to Andrew, as the 1840 Census for Samuel lists more sons that do not appear on the
1850 Census with Samuel and Nancy Key. I tend to believe that the James Wheeler is the brother
of Andrew because the 1840 census indicates more children then those listed with Samuel in 1850.

Notes for HENRY GIBSON WHEELER:
HENRY GIBSON WHEELER [1839-1895] Father: William Henry Wheeler Mother: Sarah Ann Neel/Neill
FROM FAMILY HISTORY--THIS NOTATION
Henry Gibson Wheeler, born April 26, 1839, Sangamon County, Illinois, the son of William Henry
and Sarah Ann Neill Wheeler, who moved from Gibson County Indiana to Sangamon County, Illinois,
after their two daughters, Phoebe Ann and Dorthia Catherine were born. Besides Henry G., Nancy Sarah
and Jeremiah were born in Sangamon County, then they moved to Hancock County, Illinois where John
Benoni was born, then back to Gibson County, Indiana where Missouri Isabell was born, August 11, 1855
and married September 16, 1874 Robert Moffit McClure. She died in Mound City, Kansas January 29, 1910.
OBITUARY, HENRY G. WHEELER DIED FEBRUARY 14, 1895
Thursday morning, about 8 o'clock, Henry Wheeler, an old and respected citizen, departed this life,
after a sickness of several weeks with typhoid fever, aged nearly 56 years. His life was spent in this county,
being mainly engaged in farming, though at one time he was engaged in the sawmill business. In 1860 he
was married to Miss Mary B. McClure, who with one son--Lon, now is business in Hazleton--survives him.
At the time of his death Mr. Wheeler was and had been for many years a member of Enon G.B. Church.
He was a man of positive character who made warm friends and will be long and sincerely mourned by a
large circle of friends and acquaintances. The funeral was held Saturday morning, interment being in Odd
Fellows Cemetery. After many days suffering with typhoid fever, all that was mortal of Henry G. Wheeler,
at 7:40 o'clock this morning, ceased to be and his sould took its flight to God, who gave it. He had been quite
low for many days and the family and friends had hoped for the best but the weary body could not withstand
the ravages of the dread disease. Mr Wheeler was born April 26, 139. In 1860 he was united in marriage to
Mary B. McClure and of this union two children, as son and daughter were born. The daughter, Alma, was
called home when just budding young womanhood; the son, Lon, a prominent young businessman of Hazleton,
together with the wife and mother, still surviving. Mr. Wheeler was a member of the Enon General Baptist
church, having joined that church many years ago. He was a man of excellent business qualifications and
possessed of an indomitable will. While possessed of some peculiar traits of character--as who is not--
he was a man of many generous impulses, a good neighbor and a kind and indulgent husband and father.
The stricken mother and son have the sympathy of a large circle of friends in their bereavment and by none
is sympathy more sincerely extended than by the NEWS. The funeral will take place from the residence on
West State Street Saturday morning at 10 o'clock. Interment in Odd Fellows Cemetery. Notes for
MARY BROWN MCCLURE:
JANUARY 31, 1914 MARY BROWN McCLURE WHEELER
Grandmother of Lawrence Wheeler died Saturday Morning
Mrs. Mary Brown Wheeler, one of Princeton's old and highly respected women, died at her home,
West Broadway, Saturday morning at 11 o'clock after a short illness at the age of 78 years.
Funeral services will take place Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock from her late residence, Rev. C. C. Edwards
officiating, and the remains will be taken to the Odd Fellows cemetery for interment.
The deceased had been a resident of Princeton for many years. She was the daughter of Joseph P.
and Catherine Devin McClure. She was married to Henry G. Wheeler in 1860, and to this union were
born 2 children, Alma and Lawrence, both now dead. The only relative of the family is a grandson,
Lawrence Wheeler of this city, a young man in the high school. The other members of the family are 2
sisters, Mrs. Wesley Key, of Patoka and Mrs. Nancy Hudelson of Princeton; 5 brothers, Robert of
Kansas, William, George and Prentice of Princeton and David of Evansville.
The many friends of the relatives will extend to them their sympathies in this hour of bereavement.
Children of HENRY WHEELER and MARY MCCLURE are:

d. August 14, 1879, Princeton, Gibson County, IN.
Notes for ALMA WHEELER:
ALMA WHEELER (1861-1879)
Alma Wheeler died August 14, 1879
Our community was startled, Tuesday, by the report that Miss Alma Wheeler, the beautiful and
accomplished daughter of our respected citizen, Henry G. Wheeler, living about 2 miles south of town,
had been thrown from a buggy and seriously, and probably fatally injured.
Mr. Wheeler had started, Monday, to go over to Pike Co., along the line of the new railroad for the
purpose of purchasing timber, and took his daughter along for company. When they arrived at the farm
of Henry Brenton, about 4 miles from Petersburg, Mr. Wheeler left his daughter in the buggy and went
up to Mr. Brenton's house to see him about some timber in that vicinity. During his absence a flock of geese
came up behind the buggy making a great noise, at which the horse took fright and started to run. It seems
Miss Wheeler held on to the horse until he had run about a hundred yards when coming to an embankment
she was thrown out striking her head on the ground with great violence. She was still entangled in the vehicle,
and in this condition was dragged a distance of about 50 yards futher. When her father reached her she was
insensible, and on examination she was found to be very badly cut and bruised about the head and face, and
was bleeding profusely from the mouth and ears. She was immediately placed in a conveyance and taken to
Petersburg and medical aid summoned. This unfortunate affair occured about 5 o'clock Monday evening, and
at 9 o'clock yeasterday morning there was no improvements. There is no hope of her recovery.
Miss Wheeler was a young lady held in high esteem by a large circle of acquaintances about Princeton.
She was one of the graduating class of 1878, of Princeton High School, and her sad fate makes a gloom
ending of what promised to be a bright and happy life as well a life of usefulness.
Alma was born June 17, 1861 and died August 14, 1879.

NAPOLION B. WHEELER (1849 - 1893)
Napolion B. Wheeler was the son of James and Elenor Milburn Wheeler. His father
died when he was about 3 years old. His mother married Thomas Williams
18 July 1854. He was living in White River township in 1880 at a Hotel run by
Robert A. Hindman. He worked as a railroad engineer. He married Emeline Briscoe
12 October 1873. He died June 1893. The following is taken from a Princeton newspaer dated June 15, 1893--
Instantly Killed
The fatal accident that befell N. B. Wheeler, which is briefly referred to by
our Hazelton correspondent,is a most distressing affair. He had been to
Wheatland on business and was on his return to Hazelton. He boarded the south
bound limited express which leaves Vincennes about 11:30 and makes no stops
until it reaches Princeton. But the train slows up a little at Deckers before
crossing the White River bridge and Mr. Wheeler being aware of that fact, and
being himself a railroad engineer, thought he could easily leave the train at
that point and walk the short distance from there to Hazelton. But in attempting
to carry out his purpose he was thrown against a small house used by the bridge
watchman with such force as to crush his skull, causing instant death.
Mr Wheeler was about 40 years old and was engaged in the photograph business
at Wheatland. He was a son of Mrs. Ellen (Elenor) Wheeler (Williams), and
has several relatives in this place. He leaves a wife and one son.

MAURICE WHEELER -- DEATH OF A LITTLE CHILD
Infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Lon Wheeler called away.
The angel of death laid hands on Maurice Wheeler, little son of Mr. and Mrs.
Lawrence Wheeler, of this city Saturday evening and a happy home was left in
sadness. The little son was just ten months old. Death occured at Hazleton
where the father is engaged in business, and resulted from congestion of the
lungs after a sickness of several weeks during which time every effort known to
human skill was
made to restore the little one to health. The remains were brough to this city
this morning and the funeral held at 3 o'clock today at the Wheeler home in
West Broadway. The little casket was draped with beautiful floral offerings
presented by friends. Rev. Dr. T. G. Cocks of the First Methodist church,
conducted services. During his remarks he paid a most touching tribute to the
little one departed saying, "Ten months ago today our Father favored this home
with his divinest blessing. His gift of baby Maurice on the 21st of June last
welcomed with joy and thanksgiving by his parents. And the little one
immediately found the tenderest place in the hearts of all who became
acquainted with his infantile loveliness. Every claim which could endear a
child to those around it belonged peculiarly to this one. Sunny tempered,
happy hearted, patient in spirit and of a most loving disposition, he was
the perfect embodiment of the Redeemer's though of such is the kingdom of heaven."
After the services the little body was tenderly laid to rest in the Odd Fellows
cemetery. In this sad hour the bereaved parents have the sincere sympathy and
condolence of their large circle of friends.
