Caldwell/Wheeles-Nevada/Hempstead Cos., AR to TX
I found a letter in a family bible from a Carrie Caldwell in Bodcaw, AR to a Permelia Ann Wheelus Harris in TX dated 6 OCT 1901. The letter was headed Dear Sister and told about the death of their mother on 11 SEP 1901. In the letter she said the family was moving to TX. Permelia had a sister named Nancy C. born about 1839 in Meriwether Co. GA. Their mother was Sarah Ann Maddox Wheelus, born abt. 1815 in GA. I have been unable to locate Nancy C. Wheelus after 1850. I believe Carrie Caldwell may be Nancy C. Wheelus. A message posted to this board states that a Caroline Wheeles married a Henry Caldwell. They had a daughter named Martha Susan. They later moved to TX. I am searching for this family and for the burial spot of Sarah Ann Wheelus (many spellings). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
