General Notes: Husband - [Ancestor] Wheelock
The Wheelock family of Warren County, Pennsylvania, are the direct descendants of Ralph Wheelock, a Puritan, who was a descendant of Hugh de Wheelock, in the reign of Henry II. The name appears as early as about 1200, sometimes as de Quelok, de Whelok, Whelok, and laterly Wheelock. The Wheelock family was prominent for several hundred years. In the early days there was a marriage between the Wheelocks and Leversages, and the two families were associated with the village of Wheelock, in England, from ancient times. The Wheelock coat-of-arms was adopted in 1285, and is described: Argent chevrons between three Catherine wheels, when the name was Whelok, a cut of which accompanies this sketch. 1
