AMOS WHEELER, deceased, was born December 25, 1820. in Scioto County, this
State, and with his father came to this county in 1835. The latter entered and
bought the land known as the old Wheeler farm; also built the first brick
residence in the county, which is still good for generations to come. This
building was erected in 1836, and is an old tavern, of which the father of Amos
Wheeler was landlord for eleven years, and our subject for seven years. Our
subject was married, November 27, 1847, to Maria Banning, born in Knox County in
1824, and came to this county in 1838. By this union the following children were
born-Porous, Alice, Frank, Eva. Amy and Maud. Mr. Amos Wheeler died on September
25, 1870, of lung disease, and was buried with all the honors of war, he having
served as a soldier for nearly four years. He was deeply beloved by all who knew
him.
