About Jane Blakeman
Disputed Origins
Parents unknown, Wheeler birth name unsupported.
- not the sister of Moses Wheeler
- not a known child of Dominick Abel Wheeler & Mercy Wheeler
From https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Unknown-357442
Unsubstantiated Claims Birth: 24 May 1600 Staffordshire, England, is listed on her Find a grave memorial. No modern scholarship has been discovered stating this date. No dates were found, in Staffordshire, for Jane Wheeler in either the IGI Index (indexed, not contributed) or at FreeRegUK. She was not the daughter of ][[Wheeler-13728|Thomas Wheeler and Ann Halsey
Goodwin's comments (1915): "wife Jane" (no surname) "Some writers have suggested that Adam Blakeman, Philip Groves and Moses Wheeler, all of Stratford, married sisters of Joseph Hawley..."[1] Torrey's New England Marriages calls her Jane [Hawley?], probably as a response to Goodwin's comment.[2]
Recently (2003) Leslie Mahler adds: "Adam's wife, Jane, has often been called a Wheeler, which is probably a generational confusion, as two of their sons intermarried with Wheelers."
Date of birth has also been erroneously reported to be 1660.
