• Notes

  son of Roswell Wheaton1. (From History of Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania, 1887 by R.M. Stocker) Calvin was a farmer and married Mrs. Julia Phillips Hurd, widow of Asel Hurd......... Calvin Wheaton removed from Litchfield County in 1814 and settled in Lawsville, this county, near Great Bend, where he took up a piece of timber land and carried on the lumbering business about seven years, when they were obliged to yield the property to others under a previous title. (CT & PA for years disputed the ownership of Northeastern PA) They returned to Connecticut and settled on the old Hurd place. In 1831 Nathan P. and Roswell Wheaton came to Franklin Township (PA) and purchased the property where D.B. Townsend now resides, upon which their parents returning, settled the following year. Nathan spent several years manufacturing brick, by which means he accumulated sufficient means, and returned to Franklin in 1838 and paid the balance due upon his purchase. In the fall of that year, he married Mary Watson, who was born September 8, 1814, and for ten years carried on his farm, sold it and purchased his present property, the salt spring lot, on Silver Creek, about a mile West of Franklin Forks. ...... His farm consisted of some five hundred acres.
