[John Wheeler]

Looking for information on a John Wheeler born ? 1700? married Sophia Cripps June 22 1793 ? Antony?. Probably buried Antony as well, Some of the Decendants are buried there and i have copies of photos of some of the graves, from the church yard. It is known that they were involved in Wheelers Hotel Torpoint. This hotel was still in the family until the 1950's. Any information on John's ancestors would be appreciated. They had 6 sons John b13/5/1794, Thomas b30/6/1796, Daniel b1798, Edward b22/1/1800,James David Cripps Wheeler b4/9/1802 and George b1804. I have most of John juniors family but information on the others would be appreciated. Thank you

I've recently signed on as OPC for Antony.  I recognize the Wheeler name from my various transciption exercises.  I'll have a closer look John et al for you.  I have microfiche copies of the parish registers but unfortunately they are of very poor quality.  Not necessarily a fault of the CRO (although I think their copying technique could be updated) but more so a case of the vicar watering down his ink!

As OPC for Antony I would be interested in any records, transcripts or old photo's of the area we could include on our website  (going live sometime this week - I hope).

Cheers
