Notes

Note 1

Margaret Ann Shelton 1845-1886 has 5 DNA matches via Wheeler Thru Lines.

half 3C -1R, or 2R. all 5 seem reasonable.

other than marriage record to Andrew Wheeler in 1863 Missouri, possible 1870 census Stone County, Missouri.

there was a Fauntroy Wheeler with multiple confused entries on findagrave but does not look right.
