Descendants of Thomas WHEELER
Generation No. 1
1. THOMAS1 WHEELER was born Nov 1602 in Cranfield, Bedfordshire, England, and died 04 Mar 1686 in Stonington, New London, Connecticut. He married MARY UNKNOWN LAST 06 Apr 1645 in Lynn, Essex, Massachusetts. She was born 1615 in Cranfield, Bedfordshire, England, and died 1680 in Stonington, New London, Connecticut.
Notes for THOMAS WHEELER:
Thomas Wheeler, the ancestor of the Wheeler family of Stonington, Connecticut and region round about, was doubtless of English origin, but the place of his birth and nationality are not certainly known, nor has the time of his migration to this country been ascertained, so as to associate him with any of the passengers of the early emigrant ships. The first knowledge that we have him in this country is when he appears as a resident of the town of Lynn, Massachusetts in 1635, when and where he was elected constable, and held other official positions later on. In 1642 he was admitted to the privilege of a freeman of the commonwealth of Massachusetts, purchasing large tracts of land there, including a mill site, upon which he built and operated a saw and grist mill. During his residence in Lynn he married Mary (Unknown Last), a young lady of his acquaintance, whose family name is unknown, but our traditions represent her as a woman of pleasing and attractive accomplishments, and in every way worthy of her liege lord; she graced her domestic duties with cheerful loveliness, filling his home with light and love. They were married in 1645, and became the parents of three children.
What induced our ancestor, Thomas Wheeler to leave Lynn, Massachusetts and sell out his business and real estate there, and take up his abode in the town in Stonington in 1667, is not fully understood, but whatever motive actuated him in coming this way it is plainly evident that he intended to make Stonington his final home. He was an intimate friend of Rev. James Noyes, who came to Stonington the same year that he did, and it has been supposed that the friendship between them was the cause of his coming. Be that as it may, there were men of his name that lived in the English home of the Noyes family, and crossed the ocean about the same year that he did. Thomas Wheeler was made freeman in the Connecticut Colony in the year 1669, and was nominated and elected one of the Stonington representatives to the Connecticut General Court in the year 1673. The next year his name appears among the immortal nine who organized the First Congregational Church of Stonington, June 3, 1674, and his wife, Mary Wheeler, was one of the partakers withe the church in their first communion service. Soon after Thomas Wheeler and his wife came to Stonington to live, he and his son Isaac built them a residence in North Stonington, where Col. James F. Brown now resides, where they lived and died. Thomas Wheeler left a will, which was lost by being burned when the infamous Arnold burned the city of New London, September 6, 1781. The existence of his will is proved by his descendants referring to it in later instruments conveying the real estate that belonged to him and given to them in his will. The are both buried in the old Whitehall burial place, situated on the east bank of the Mystic river.

Notes for THOMAS WHEELER:
* died at the age of 20 years. He was murdered by the Indians, under the supposed leadership of a Chief known as the black sachem. Mr. Wheeler was away from home, out on a hunting excursion, traversing the forests of the town of Preston, and when near Quinebaug Rive he met a squad of Indians, who were hunting in the same region, who ordered him to clear out and leave the game to them, as they were the original owners of it. He refused to obey their orders, when they told him if he did not leave the game of the forests to them they would kill and scalp him on the spot. He bid defiance to their threats, when they attacked him with their tomahawks and scalping knives. He defended himself as best he could, and a terrible struggle ensued which resulted in his death, and that of five of the Indians.

Notes for ISAAC WHEELER, JR.:
Isaac Wheeler erected him a house in Stonington, on lands given him by his grandfather, Thomas Wheeler, where he brought his bride on their wedding tour, and commenced life at farming. But his wife aspired to a more active business life, and to gratify her wishes he changed and enlarged his house, making it two stories on the south, and one on the north, with show windows on the west, which were utilized for a variety store, by Madam Wheeler, who became the leading merchant of the town, buying all of the surplus farm products of the region round about, which she sent to Boston and the West Indies for a market, exchanging the same for good necessary fro the planters of the town. She made equestrian trips to Boston alone, where she purchased her dry goods. She was not only the leading merchant of the town, but her mansion house was the centre of all the neighborhood families. Her store was not only a place of business, bur a political center, where slates were made for all the offices of the town. She became wealthy, and at her death was the richest woman of the county. They both united with the First Congregational Church in 1771, and were active and useful members. They were buried in the graveyard west of Frank Mattison's present residence.
