Wheeler-9976 and Wheeler-1796 appear to represent the same person because: sources are on 9976, but they do not agree. These are the same person but need to be examined as to which information is correct and then merged.

Not sure this is the correct son of John Wheeler, Sr. In Walter V. Ball's book ("The Wheeler Family) on page 12 his dates are listed as 1654-1688. No wife or children are listed.

The Arc. of Md., Vol. 60, page 404 shows that John Wheeler, Jr. witnessed a deed in Charles County in Oct., 1671 when he was only 17 years of age. No record was found of service on a jury or in military service.

This John needs to be checked on. With a brother named John that was alive before and after his life this makes no sense.
