* 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 River 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.
