Debby,

Looks like you're in luck. First, let me explain about the book. It was
published many years ago and is out of print. However, it's available to
download (in sections in PDF format) from the HeritageQuest site
(heritagequestonline.com). This is a commercial service, but I have free
online access to it through our local library. I downloaded the entire
book some time ago, and can send you a copy on CD-R if you're interested.

Now to the details, although I only have a few minutes right now. The
index lists the following Wheelers"

Samuel page 330
Abel page 366
William page 377
Jonas page 445
Seneca E. page 497

An appendix containing abbreviated bio sketches lists:

Samuel - among his children is a John born 8 August 1813.

Thomas

I have to leave shortly, and won't be back until evening, but I'll try to
copy all the bio info and email it to you; next, I'll try to look up the
index references.
