Research Note

Adams-16917 12:55, 18 February 2016 (EST)removed Elizabeth from father's wife 1 to wife 2 based on Elizabeth's birth date and wives dates. [ not sure i should have done this as the dates are inconsistent]

Weston-1852 removed the listed parents after adopting the profile. William and Isabella (Price) Wheeler had a daughter named Elizabeth, but this is not her. Their daughter married a man named Joseph Perejoy. Citing: Barnes, Robert W. Baltimore County Families, 1659-1759. Baltimore, MD: Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., 1989. page 689.

The above listed reference shows there were at least two distinct lines of Wheeler in the Baltimore area during this time period that could have interacted with the Whitaker line. Unfortunately, the cut-off date of 1759 does not trace the lines of any of these families to the time in question.
