LaColle is located south of Montreal down the 15 freeway almost to the US border. Then go east on 202 a couple of miles to the junction of 202 and 221. My grandmother Clara Rowland Shaffer: �The Wheeler�s moved to Dover Twsp., Fayette County in 1853. Mother said she was a perfect lady and that I looked like her.�
There seems to be a question on the spelling of Elvira�s name as it is sometimes spelled Alvira., but her daughter�s name is Elvira. . . therefore I think that is the correct spelling.

Great Grand Father (Step)
Oran William Wheeler 
b. 20 April 1894 in Neosho, Newton, Missouri
d. 3 Jul 1970 in Des Moines, Polk, Iowa
b. 7 Jul 1970 in Wick, Iowa
m. (1) Ada Elsie Princehouse (2) Lillian_______
I remember Oran Wheeler as my Grandpa Wheeler. He was the
same age as Ada�s son a (my grandfather). As a child I did not
notice the age difference. I loved both of them, especially Grandpa
Wheeler, who was left handed just like me. My grandfather,
Clarence Robb, wasn�t thrilled about his mother�s marriage so Oran
made himself part of the family by managing my mother�s soft ball
team. He was from Missouri and his look, manner, and speech
pattern were very much like President Harry Truman�s. 1850 U. S.
Query:
�Oran had no children and I do not know his parents. I do not know
Lillian�s last name. Does anyone have information on this family?�
