William WHEATON (1779-1857) & Orpha BROOKS

Descendants of William WHEATON

Updated May 2018

Generation No. 1

1. William1 WHEATON1 was born January 30, 1779 in Westchester Co., New York, USA or Dutchess Co., New York, USA, or Connecticut, USA (1850 Census)1,2,3, and died November 29, 1857 in Chumung Co., New York, USA4,5. He married Orpha BROOKS6 1801 in Duchess, New York, USA7,8. She was born November 11, 1784 in Stratford, Fairfield Co., Connecticut, USA9,10, and died February 21, 1866 in Chumung Co., New York, USA10.

Occupation: 1850 Labourer11

From the following notes, and from the information for various members of this family it will be obvious that there are several discrepancies in the details shown. I understand from several sources that the places of births for the children of William and Orpha BROOKs have not been verified by them. With Rebecca and Olive born in the same year in a different month and day does indicate that more research is required. Also, with two children named Miles B WHEATON, surely the first one died? I have shown this on the file, but I have received details of his descendants from one contributor. However, as I have been sent the information I cannot verify it myself, so I have kept the details on the file and hopefully, at some time, someone will provide the correct information, verified from the actual source materials.

I had two dates for the death of William, 1851 or 1857. I have now received the following information from Mary Ann MATLOCK

“We found William WHEATON listed in the New York state census of 1855 still living age 76 with Orpha age 70. They were living with their son Silas in Erin, Chemung Co., New York.”

Information from George W PAGE 20 March 2003

1850 Census  Woodhull Twp., Steuben Co., New York, USA living with their daughter Rebecca and her family

Information from Joseph KELLY 13 March 2003

Joe KELLY shows William born 29 January 1779 in Barnford, New Haven Co., Connecticut, USA and death 29 March 1851 in Town of Neversink, Sullivan Co., New York, USA. The marriage date is shown as 1802

William was listed as Mortgagee in 1847 in Sullivan Co., Town of Neversink and Asa Hodge as Mortgagor.

A source in Rootsweb gives his birth date as 1/30/1779 and birthplace as Dutchess Co., N.Y. Another source from Lucy Weaver gives his place of birth as Westchester Co., N.Y.   Another source from Lucy Weaver (info from Travis Wheaton) states that the DOD of William was 11/29/1857 in Erin, N.Y. He was buried in the Old Scotch Town Cemetery.

The William Wheaton family was living in Neversink, and Daniel Brewer and family became neighbors and good friends. William and his sons were coopers by trade. They worked with the Brewers and taught them this trade. Daniel and his sons became fine artisans in this field, and it is said that the Brewers could make anything from wood. They could fashion anything from a wagon to a wedding ring.

In the year 1850, the U.S. Census finds Daniel and Lydia Brewer (they had a son Lewis who m. Bethenia, dau. of Wm. and Orpha Wheaton), with three unmarried children, in Elmira, Chemung County, New York. William and Orpha Wheaton, living with their daughter Rebecca Devoo, in Woodhull, Steuben County, where a Branch of the Church (Latter Day Saints) was established, presided over by one of the sons of William Wheaton. This proved to be a great blessing to both the Wheaton and Brewer families, for there were many members baptized into the church here in this branch.”

Information on Rootsweb World Connect Project from Kylie Veale cdvgenealogy@veale.com.au

Miles Brooks WHEATON was born 1 March 1806 in Duchess, NY, USA. He married Jane DENMAN About 1825 in Neversink, Sullivan, NY, USA, daughter of William DENMAN and Ann BOREMAN. She was born 21 Apr 1804 in Neversink, Sullivan, NY, USA.

As there seems to be another Miles B WHEATON born in 1812 it was thought that perhaps this marriage belonged to him, but as the birth year of the wife is 1804 the information is included here for the time being.

Joseph KELLY 13 March 2003 also gives the marriage to Jane DENMAN as belonging to the Miles B WHEATON who was born in 1806. His comments are awaited.

He converted to Mormonism and left with his wife for Salt Lake City, UT. His middle name was BROOKS.

Notes for Sarah Ann BUTLER:

Information from Joseph KELLY 13 March 2003

The Saints’ Herald, Vol.38, p.47, 1891 January 17th.

WHEATON– Sarah Ann Wheaton died at Galien, Michigan, January 2nd, 1891. She arose New Year’s morning in her usual health, went to the bed of her grandson, Charles Green Jr., gave him his birthday flogging, made herself an apron in the forenoon, after dinner called on her son Reuben and other villagers, and returned home late in the afternoon and between five and six was taken ill. Her suffering became almost unbearable soon and a medical adviser was called in, who administered morphine freely. She soon became more or less stupified through the drug. The doctor was summoned to her aid frequently during the night, but her tired spirit fled next morning at seven. There was an immense concourse at the funeral Sunday morning at Blakeslee’s Hall. She had met with the Saints there often and for many years. Bro. Willard J. Smith and the writer conducted the obsequies, the later delivering a forty minutes discourse from the text: “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.”-Psalms 116:15. She was born in Haverstraw, Rockland County, New York, October 10th, 1817. Her maiden name was Butler. She married Jacob Wheaton about fifty-five years ago, by whom she had eight children, five daughters, and three sons. Her husband died in this county in 1859, and only one daughter and two sons survive to morn her loss. Herself and her husband were baptized in the first organization sometime in the forties in New York. She was immersed and confirmed into the Reorganization at Royalton, Michigan, in 1861, by James Blakeslee, and stood firm in the faith during her long, industrious provident, devoted career.–M.T. Short

1910       Cass Lake, Cass, Minnesota, USA

1920       Elberta and Josephine, Baldwin, Alabama, USA

1930       Not found

After much deliberation I have entered information based on the following ideas. If anyone has the details, please contact me.

When entering census data I found the following:

1910 Cass Lake, Cass, Minnesota

RENFIELD R D       age 54 (b1856) m2 15years born Massachusetts occupation Cloting? Factory

RENFIELD Arvilla   age 56 (b1854) m3 15years born Indiana (had 5 children/4 surviving) (both parents born New York)

WHEATON Albert    age 8   (b1902) born Minnesota  (parents born Michigan & Minnesota) grandson

1920 Seattle, King, Washington

WHEATON, Albert   age 17 (born1903)                 born Minnesota                                             (parents born Michigan & Minnesota)

1930 South Bend, Pacific, Washington

WHEATON, Albert C age 28 (born1902)                 born Minnesota                                             (parents born Michigan & United States)

May       age 24                                   born California

Arvilla   age   3 (born1917                 born Washington

1940 Woodland, Cowlitz, Washington

WHEATON, Albert C Junior

age 38 (born1902)                 born Minnesota

Nancy Mae age 34                             born California

Arvilla Mae age 13                             born California

Albert C III   age   3                             born California

I wanted to try to find the parents of Albert

From the 1940 census it looks as if his father was Albert C as well.

So, I am looking for an Albert C WHEATON born about 1877 (25 years younger that this Albert) with a grandmother called Arvilla WHEATON

As I had birth year and place from the 1910 census for Arvilla I looked for her first, an Arvilla WHEATON born about 1854 in Indiana

1880 Chase, Lake, Michigan, USA

WHEATON William C   age 39 (b1841) New York

Arvilla M     age 31 (b1849) Indiana (both parents born New York)

Pluma May age 12

Bertha B     age   9

Alvin S       age   3 (b1877)

Calvin A     age   3 (b1877)

1870 Arvilla was 22 so born about 1848. Birth date not exact but name, place of birth and place of birth of parents did match. Also, there was no other Arvilla WHEATON born about this time.

But she does not have a son Albert C WHEATON….on the other hand she has a son called Calvin A born about the right time. Was he perhaps Calvin Albert and changed his name around?

Census information for Calvin A

1880       Chase, Lake, Michigan, USA as Calvin A

1900

1910       Seattle, King, Washington, USA as A Calvin a widower (parents born New York and Indiana)

Living with sister Puma Mary, her husband John TAYLOR and son Calvin W HARRIS

1920

1930       Seattle, King, Washington, USA as A C WHETON a widower (parents born New York and Indiana)

Living with his brother Silas Alvin (as S A)

Index amended to show name as Albert Calvin WHEATON

1940

Census Information for an Albert C which looks as if if belongs to Calvin above

1920       Seattle. King, Washington, USA as Albert C Divorced (parents born New York and Indiana)

1940       McKinley, King, Washington, USA as Albert C a widower, sole occupant (no information about parents)

Mrs. Keen Discusses ‘First Love’

GALIEN – Mrs. Emma Keen, descendent of one of the first families to settle in Galien, spent a sunny afternoon last week recalling the early days of Galien. When asked her age, she replied, “Oh, my goodness, I wouldn’t tell you that, I’ve forgotten it anyway.” Mrs. Keen showed no desire to talk about herself. She did have considerable to say about her first love – the Galien Township Memorial Library and the two libraries which preceded the dedication of the present library in 1954. She described how the first library in the back of he town hall grew until it overflowed into the front of the building. The library continued to grow and then one day, when the old high school building was vacated, she mentioned to the “right person” that the spot would be ideal for a library.

From then on until the new library was dedicated, it was hard work, but well worth it, Mrs. Keen recalls. What most folks didn’t know the day of the dedication, was that about 5 a.m. Mrs. Keen suffered a heart attack. The long hours spent at the library marking books and helping in any way she could, had been too much for her. The day held double significance for her. She had given a flag pole and base to the library in memory of her husband, Philip Marshall Keen, who served as principal of Galien Township School from 1901 to 1909. “I thought they would expect me to say a few words, so I had stayed up the night before preparing a little speech,” she said. She was taken to the hospital by an ambulance and later that day her dedication speech was read by another. She takes things a little easier now but continues to do a great deal of reading. “Thank goodness my eyes are still good,” she smiled. Mrs. Keen, who is as active as many women 20 years younger than she, was awarded her master of arts degree from Columbia University, New York.

She has been an avid reader since five-years-old. She said, “My mother didn’t want me to start school when I was five, so my father bought the first and second grade readers and I had read them both before I started school. The first year I made three grades and graduated from Galien High school before I was 16-years-old. She earned her life certificate from Yipsilanti Normal and her bachelor’s degree in pedogogy and arts from the University of Michigan. She recalls that her romance with Mr. Keen started while she was attending Ypsilanti Normal and he the University of Michigan. “We were really school people,” she added.

She lives in the same house where she was born, 122 Cleveland Ave., the main street of Galien. “My grandparents settled in Royalton Township. When my grandmother Sarah Ann (Butler) Wheaton was widowed, she brought her family here in 1860 and bought these lots. The house was built in 1863. She grew up in the house with her parents, Rubin Bradford and Mary Ellen (Dolph) Wheaton. [and brother Clark Eugene Wheaton] Her father was a contractor. “He and my uncle [John Ross ] built the Methodist Church here in Galien,” she said.

Mrs. Keen said she could remember two big fires in downtown Galien. The first one happened when she was quite young. The second one about 1909 took all the buildings on the north side of the railroad tracks.”Folks here abouts believed the fire was started when some one tired to rob Blakeelee’s store. It was the only bank in town and people thought the fire got started when an attempt was made to blow up the safe. There was no fire apparatus in town. They covered our house with wet blankets to prevent the fire from spreading.”

At the conclusion of the interview, Mrs. Keen, inquried if we had seen the new library. Upon hearing our answer, she said “Shame on you. Come back some time and I’ll take you on a personal tour.”

After much deliberation I have entered information based on the following ideas. If anyone has the details, please contact me. When entering census data I found the following:

1910 Cass Lake, Cass, Minnesota

RENFIELD R D       age 54 (b1856) m2 15years born Massachusetts occupation Cloting? Factory

RENFIELD Arvilla   age 56 (b1854) m3 15years born Indiana (had 5 children/4 surviving) (both parents born New York)

WHEATON Albert     age 8   (b1902)                     born Minnesota                                           (parents born Michigan & Minnesota) grandson

1920 Seattle, King, Washington

WHEATON, Albert   age 17 (born1903)                born Minnesota                                             (parents born Michigan & Minnesota)

1930 South Bend, Pacific, Washington

WHEATON, Albert C age 28 (born1902)                 born Minnesota                                            (parents born Michigan & United States)

May       age 24                                   born California

Arvilla   age   3 (born1917                 born Washington

1940 Woodland, Cowlitz, Washington

WHEATON, Albert C Junior

age 38 (born1902)                 born Minnesota

Nancy Mae age 34                             born California

Arvilla Mae age 13                             born California

Albert C III   age   3                             born California

I wanted to try to find the parents of Albert

From the 1940 census it looks as if his father was Albert C as well.

So, I am looking for an Albert C WHEATON born about 1877 (25 years younger that this Albert) with a grandmother called Arvilla WHEATON

As I had birth year and place from the 1910 census for Arvilla I looked for her first, an Arvilla WHEATON born about 1854 in Indiana

1880 Chase, Lake, Michigan, USA

WHEATON William C   age 39 (b1841) New York

Arvilla M     age 31 (b1849) Indiana (both parents born New York)

Pluma May age 12

Bertha B     age   9

Alvin S       age   3 (b1877)

Calvin A     age   3 (b1877)

1870 Arvilla was 22 so born about 1848. Birth date not exact but name, place of birth and place of birth of parents did match. Also, there was no other Arvilla WHEATON born about this time.

But she does not have a son Albert C WHEATON….on the other hand she has a son called Calvin A born about the right time. Was he perhaps Calvin Albert and changed his name around?

Census information for Calvin A

1880       Chase, Lake, Michigan, USA as Calvin A

1900

1910       Seattle, King, Washington, USA as A Calvin a widower (parents born New York and Indiana) Living with sister Puma Mary, her husband John TAYLOR and son Calvin W HARRIS

1920

1930       Seattle, King, Washington, USA as A C WHETON a widower (parents born New York and Indiana) Living with his brother Silas Alvin (as S A) Index amended to show name as Albert Calvin WHEATON

1940

Census Information for an Albert C which looks as if if belongs to Calvin above

1920       Seattle. King, Washington, USA as Albert C Divorced (parents born New York and Indiana)

1940       McKinley, King, Washington, USA as Albert C a widower, sole occupant (no information about parents)

The changes in name have made it impossible to find Calvin Albert/Albert C on the 1900 census. There is an Adam C WHEATON born January 1877 Michigan with parents born in New York and Indiana, as were those of Calvin Albert/Albert C. Adam was an Upholster which does not correspond with Calvin Albert/Albert Calvin’s 1910 and 1930 occupation but has similarities to his 1940 one.
