Notater:

It has taken me many years to finally find proof that this George Washington Wheeler was the son of William, Sr. from his second marriage to Margaret/Peggy.

My first clue came in 2015 when I found a record of a suit in the HCI Circuit Court against "George W Wheeler of Posey Co., IN." in the early 1850s where the heirs of one James Wheeler (son of William Wheeler, Sr. from his first wife, Lucy Ellis) are suing George for the return of a horse he wrongfully obtained from the estate of James Wheeler. This suit tied that George W Wheeler to Hamilton Co., IL.

A check of records for Posey Co., IN turned up 2 marriages for this George W Wheeler, the first to Nancy Lewis Waller and the second to Margaret Barr Waller. No date of marriage is shown in either record.

The 1840 census of Posey Co., IN. page 332/649 shows a 20-30 year old George W Wheeler with a 20-30 year old female in the home. No children are present.

For the 1850 census he is still in Posey Co., IN and living with Nancy L and 3 children (all born in IN.) plus a 17 year old Robert W Phelps (b. Illinois).

Then locating him in the 1860 census I found him living right next to his brother Robert's daughter, Artemissia and her new husband Alexander M Stafford. Also living with him in that census is a 19 year old A P Wheeler born in Illinois who is most likely his brother Abner's son, Abner P Wheeler.

Also in the 1860 census is a 25 year old Patrick P (surname not recorded so assumed Wheeler) who was born in Ireland. No idea where he fits in.

Further down the page in the 1860 census is a 25 year old James C Cargill b. Illinois. The interesting note about him is the fact that the HCI Circuit Court records show the Wheeler boys of HCI getting into trouble with a James C Cargill as one of their accomplices.

For the 1870 census he is by himself living near his oldest son, John L and his wife Rachel. He is shown as a 56 year old retired farmer born in Illinois.

In 1880 he is living with the William (23) and Alice (18) Steavens family in Bethel Township, Posey Co., IN and shown as a 66 year old divorced boarder. This could be a son of his sister Artemissia (with her husband Alexander Stephens) and his wife. In that census he shows his father was born in NC and his mother was born in KY.

I do not know when he died so I am leaving the 1880 date on this record as that is the last year we know he was still alive.

He is not to be confused with the John L Wheeler of Shelby Co., IN also born in 1841. There are 2 Hargate children (Emma 14 & John 8) and 3 farm laborers living with them in the 1870 census.
