In researching the Kitchens of Orillia and Matchedash Ontario, I could not establish a link to the Wheeler line of Kitchens from New Jersey.
However I feel that both lines originated in north of England.
Hopefully this post might be able to establish a connection between these lines.
In researching the Orillia and Matchedash, I was really taken aback by the similarity in features to the Wheeler line of Kitchens.
What's the expression - dead ringer in one.
To the extent that I have thoroughly researched this new, presently unrelated line, in the belief that some of the living could either provide me with additional research, or secondly provide a DNA match.
To date neither has materialised.
So now I am going to detail what I have found, and if there are those that might be able to add to it please, I would be most grateful.
Excuse me for just following up the male line at this point:
