Biography

This profile is part of the Wheeler Name Study.

Mary Jane Holton was born in 1828 in Emanuel County, Georgia, United States, daughter of Nathaniel Jackson Holton (1806–1860) and Mary K. Wren (1815– ).

Mary and John McCollister Wheeler were married in 1853 in Columbia County, Florida, USA. John was born in 1832 in Appling County, Georgia, USA.

Research Notes

Ancestry lists a daughter named Sarah Elizabeth Wheeler (1864-1917) for the couple but no evidence that she lived with the couple. Did they both pass after her death - perhaps prior to 1870?

With the child being born in 1864, I suspect their marriage date is closer to 1863. The Civil War was going on at this time - perhaps he died related to it.

Plus she is living with family in the 1860 census.
