Died aged 100, was buried in the churchyard of the Old Congregational Church at Stratford, Conn. It is said he came from Kent, England, his ancestors having originally lived in Hertfordshire, and that he came to New Haven, CT from London in 1638, probably with the New Haven Company. He was among the first to receive an allotment of land at New Haven in 1643.

The date of his removal to Stratford is not known, but he was living there in 1648 when the privilege of the ferry across the Housatonic River was granted to him by the General Court. He was a ship carpenter by trade and in addition to building vessels he engaged in farming the lands of which he was an extensive owner, and he became one of the leading and influential men of Stratford. In 1670, the town leased to " Moses Wheeler, Ship carpenter, the ferry with thirty or forty acres of upland and six of meadow joining to the ferry, for 21 years. Without tax or rate, except sixpence per annum during said lease," and the inhabitants were to be ferried over for one half -penny per person,and two pence per horse or beast."

About ten years before his death he gave most of his property to his children, Moses Jr., Samuel, and Jacob Walker. He gave the tract near Derby that he had bought from the Indians about forty years before, and by his will, dated February. 19, 1689-90, his son Samuel received the homestead and all pertaining to it. This homestead, according to Samuel's will of Nov.30,1689, lay "at ye upper end of ye upper Island," probably in the Housatonic.
