Looking for information on James Monroe Wheeler born August 23, 1852 in Iuka, Tishimingo Co., MS. Possible parents are James F. Wheeler and Mary Messinger (Messenger) who were married 6 Oct 1847 in Itawamba Co., MS. I have not found James F. Wheeler and Mary Messinger on a census together, cannot locate them in the 1850 census. Mary is listed on the 1860 census in Itawamba Co., MS with her sister's family along with her mother, step brother and son James M. James is listed on the 1870 Tishimingo Co. census with grandmother, Charlotte Wallace, and her son Lewis. By 1880 James M. is living in Texas. Have not located Mary Wheeler on 1870 census. Do not know if she remarried or died. Would anyone have any information on these two James Wheelers or the Messinger or Wallace family? Thanks! Jenny Garner jennygarnertx@skynethouston.com
