Awoke me to the purposes that have structured the residue of my mortal life.
Wife of Oliver Wheeler II; mother of Eli Wheeler
In our Prescott line
Descent from Watertown founders 1630
Her in-laws: the parents of her husband Oliver Wheeler II
A little girl in 1757, when her family moved to settle New Hampshire.
Our fifth great-grandmother
Married 5GGF Oliver Wheeler II, 3 March 1773.
Born in Billerica.
Home on Westford Street.
So how did our pivotal ancestors Oliver and Hepzibah ever meet?
Abi was Hepzibah’s and Oliver’s firstborn daughter.
Uncle Eli Wheeler was their fourth child
In this shot, you can just catch a glimpse of Thaddeus’ cousin
Her father Nathan was a founder of Carlisle
Dr. Joseph Munroe was her first cousin and therefore mine
The Vital Records showed her as born in Billerica
Harriet was a granddaughter of Oliver and Hepzibah
I brought her roses from Billerica.
I’d been looking forward to delivering an extensive status report.
Links us to an amazing heritage
Oliver II and Hepzibah Munroe Wheeler.
I blame her for my family history addiction
In all likelihood, her birthplace stood here at the time of the Revolution
Her most famous grandchild by far
The pivotal ancestors who connect us with
Oliver & Hepzibah Epitaphs
Didn’t really quite reprove my sloth as I deserved
Indeed, maybe it will be given to me to have been your Hepzibah
Maybe you’ll have a Hepzibah of your own
And here’s Our Munroe and Russell lines coincide in our crossroads ancestors, Oliver and Hepzibah.
Harriet, Hepzibah’s most famous grandchild by far
The Lord and Granny Hepzibah turned my world upside down.
A fifth great-grandmother.
My eye fell on a fascinating name:
The next Memorial Day, I set out to find Granny Hepzibah’s grave.
Turned my life around and focused it on family history.
I could have bought the flowers much closer to her birthplace.
Valerie did, once, accompany me to Hillsborough Center
The Revolutionary-era couple who, more than any others, tie us to our heritage in Colonial New England.
Of inconveniently far-away Billerica
