A few handwritten notes (Charles Morse) indicating that George M. Wheeler, son of James S. Wheeler, was born 1849, died 1926 and married Esther Forbush June 20, 1876. Pasted on this sheet of notes is a newspaper clipping with picture of George Wheeler and an article on his candidacy for political office. Mr. Wheeler was born in Warwick, has been a selectman of Warwick two years and a member of several organizations including being a member of the Orange Board of Trade. George Wheeler conducts a "flourishing business" making wooden boxes. With the exception of boxes made for Whitman Grocery Co. of Orange, his product mainly goes to the New York market. It is not clear what office Mr. Wheeler is pursuing but "He is the strongest candidate the Democrats could have placed in the field."
