Tony's Notes
1923-April 5: Tri-County Newspaper Mrs. Mary McIntire dies in
Gainesville - Mrs. Mary McIntire, aged 84, died at Gainesville on last
Sunday, April 1, 1923. Her body was brought here last Monday and buried
at Bethlehem Baptist Church, where she had been a member for the past
fifty four years. Mrs. McIntire was Miss Mary Gastley before marriage
and a sister to Mr. T.J. Gastley and moved to this country from Germany
with her parents at the age of seven years and like her brother and
other relatives when she reached her adopted country she became a true
and loyal American. She was a (good) woman and highly respected by all.
She leaves nine children and a host of friends and relatives. James Lafayette WALDREP is my great grandfather.James
married Nancy Emily Wheeler(1860-1905), daughter of Thomas Hamilton
Wheeler and Mary Ann GASTLEY, on 24 Jan 1878 in , Habersham County, GA.
Nancy Emily was born on 5 Apr 1860 in , Habersham Co, GA. She died on 25
Aug 1905 in , Habersham Co, GA. She is buried in the Bethlehem Baptist
Church Cemetery in Clarkesville, GA. Emily's father Thomas Hamilton
Wheeler died fighting with Company C, 9th. Battalion Infantry Regiment
Georgia CSA at Shelbyville, TN, in 1862. Emily was their only child. Her
mother, Mary Ann Gastley married again in 1869 to Richard Marvin
McIntyre(1845-1915) and together they had several children. Apparently,
Nancy Emily Wheeler was adopted by her step father and took his last
name. Nancy Emily's mother was often called "mother Mac" and spoke in
broken English and her German native language. Mary Ann Gastley was born
in Baden, Wuerttemberg, Germany 4 Apr 1838 and died in Hall County
Georgia 1 Apr 1923. She came through Savannah, GA as a young child when
her parents imigrated to America. Her father was John Gastley(1811-1892)
and her mother was Ann Gastley(1811-1870) both from Baden, Germany. The
photo below was taken around 1904 at the family home in Habersham,
Georgia.
(Needs Ancestry Account)
~What I know is that my family came from Germany, then Holland, through
Savannah, GA and settled in Habersham County, GA. More specifically
Clarkesville. John Gastley is the earliest name I can link to, he was
born in 1811 and buried at Bethlehem Baptist Church in Clarkesville on
1/12/1892. I have gathered information about Thomas Joseph (John's son)
and all those I can since, but know nothing of anyone else from John's
family
~William Thomas Gastley's parents were John Andrew "Andy" Gastley, b.
abt. 1868 in GA, d. 22 Apr 1938 in Habersham Co., GA, and (I think)
Sarah Emma Hill, b. abt. 1870 in GA, d. 9 May 1966 in Habersham Co., GA
Andy's
parents were Thomas J. Gastley, b. abt. 1848 in GA, d. 28 Mar 1934 in
Habersham Co., GA and Sarah M., b. abt. 1849 in GA, d. abt 1921 in
Habersham Co., GA.
Thomas J.'s parents were John Gastley (spelled
in 1850 as Goslin or Gosley, in 1860 as Ghastty, and in 1880 as
Gastly), b. abt. 1811 in Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany, d. aft. 1880, and
Amy (or Emily), b. abt 1811 in Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany, d. bet.
1870-1880, probably in Habersham Co., GA
~John Gastley born 1811 in Germany died 1/12/1892 Habersham County GA
buried Bethlehem Baptist Church Cemetery - Toombstone - John Gastley
born 1811 - died 1/12/1892 age 81 years. - spelling varies in Census
records - wife is Emily born abt 1811-1818 Germany died before 1880 in
Habersham County GA - no headstone - this puzzles me as all other
members of the family have wonder, large memorial stones. Was she
disliked? John and Emily Gastley had at least 4 children: Mary Ann Gastley Wheeler McIntyre (My line) born4/4/1838 Germany John G. Gastley born 4/12/1851 GA (mentally retarded) Jacob Gastley born 6/12/1856 GA (mentally retarded) Thomas Joseph Gastley born 7/29/1848 all of the children are buried at Bethlehem Baptist Cemetery
Mary
Ann married first Thomas Hamilton Wheeler 1859 Habersham County GA -
they had a least one child John George Wheeler born 10/12/1861 (my line)
and perhaps a daughter Nancy E. born April 1860? She is listed with
Mary Ann and her second husband Richard McIntyre in the 1870 Census..

~My name is Jennifer Gastley, I'm from Habersham County. My grandfather
was John Earl Gastley, his father was John Andrew. Everything that I
have ever heard about the Gastley's is that they moved here from
Germany. I have never heard anything about them coming from Holland. William A. Wheeler from Franklin County Georgia Any information on the above would be greatly appreciated. Spouse: Mary
Freeman, daughter of Holman and Ann Cox Freeman of Henrico and Goochland
Co. VA. Children of William A. and Mary: Lucy, Mary, William,
Elizabeth, James m Susan Smith, Freeman, Richard m Caroline Miles,
Katherine m James Martin
I have some information on a William A. Wheeler from Franklin County
Georgia. William's parents were Rev Thomas B. and Mrs Judah Wheeler.
Thomas was born on October 17, 1803 while Judah was born March 8, 1808. William's borthers and sisters were: Jennie B: july 21, 1823 James B: May 20, 1825 John C. B: February 4, 1829 Francis B: March 11, 1831 Elizzie B: June 12, 1834 Nancy B: February 9, 1836 Elisa B: December 27, 1837 Hannah B: February 8, 1840 Robert S. B: January 27, 1842 Drucilla B: February 16, 1844 Rhoady (Marhoda) B: October 11, 1846 (My Great Grandmother) Thomas B. Wheeler died July 12, 1885 while Judah died January 8, 1894 Thomas B. was raised in Habersham County, Georgia
Think your William A. Wheeler is the father to my George Wheeler. He
moved onto Habersham county and died there in 1859. His daughter, Nancy
Ann Wheeler, married my gggfather, Robert E. Martin. They moved along
with other Wheeler's to Walker County, GA and then to Newton County, AK
around 1870. Think Nancy's brother Isham Wheeler went with them. Do you
have any Martin info in your Wheeler info. I acquired George Wheeler's
Will at the LDS family history library this summer while visiting family
in Salt Lake City. His will lists 3 grandsons. George Martin, Rial M.
Martin and Robert Martin.
I am related to your Wheelers. George is my husband's ancestor through
George's son, Colby. Colby's son, Isham, moved to Newton Co., AR, in
1850's. My e-mail is granny@arn.net. George's father is Thomas of Elbert Co., GA.
My Nancy Ann Wheeler was Colby's daughter and Isham Wheeler's sister.
I am a descendent of Wm.Wheeler, Isham's bro. Do you have any info. on Wm? His middle name? Marriage record in Berkeley Co WV (1865) gave his parents as Colby & Jane and birthplace Habersham Co., Ga (about 1832)
Isham Wheeler married Catherine Anderson 1854 in Habersham. Her father
was probably William Anderson. I have no information about this family.
Can anyone help? Isham's father, Coleby, was in Walker Co., GA, in 1854.
Colby lived in Habersham for awhile, and was recorded in the 1830
census, before moving on to Walker. He is the son of George Wheeler and
Elizabeth Lydia Underwood. George listed NC as his home state in the
1850 census. I was informed recently that George is the son of Thomas
Wheeler of Elbert Co. GA, and originally from NC.
The LDS [familysearch.com] listing by Amy Elizabeth Thomas gives the
family of George Wheeler, including Colby and my ancestor Arpie. Another
daughter, Mary Polly, married John Martin; they had a son R.M. Martin
who married Sarah Anderson Mar 27, 1851 in Habersham. The father of
Sarah is listed as William Anderson. Sarah is listed as born CA 1834 and
died CA 1888 in GA. The listing [from bible records] says that
R.M.Martin was know as Matt, and probably died in 1863 with the Army of
Tenn. He may be the Rob't Martin who was living with George and Lydia
Wheeler in 1850 in the 12th district. A separate listing on page 36 of
"These Men Wore Grey" by Karen Ledford states that Sarah was born June 18, 1834 and died Oct. 26, 1888. She is buried in Ebenezer Meth. Cemetery near Hollywood GA.
Your Isham Wheeler and Sarah Anderson moved to Newton County, AR in the
1870's. He went there with my gggrandfather Robert E. and Nancy Ann
Wheeler Martin. Nancy Ann Wheeler and Isham was children of Colbey
Wheeler. They are buried in Sandhill and Red Rock cemeteries, Newton
County, AR.
reponse to query of Jan 2000. The R. M. Martin and Sarah Anderson
mentioned is believed to be Rial M. Martin. My gggrandfather was Robert
Martin, who was emunerated with George and Wheeler in 1850. He moved
with Isam Wheeler (son of Colbey Wheeler)and family to Newton County,
AR. There are 3 of us "cuzs" working on this line. I have always
believed that Robert Martin's father was indeed the John Martin you
mentioned. His widow mother, Elizabeth Terrell Martin and brother John's
brother, Philip Martin, came to Habersham County in the 1820 land
lottery. Elzabeth's father Simon Terrell was made guardian of her
children when her husband John Martin died in Franklin County in 1811.

Per Barbara Sook's in Emily Gastley (*Mary Ann Gastley) records she saw a document that stated she was the widow of Thomas Hamilton Wheeler.
Her grandfather, John George Wheeler had a Uncle named Jake (Jacob) who was a brother to his father. She also mentioned a William F. Wheeler. I traced this gentleman and it appears that he and his brother Thomas were the sons of Richard Wheeler of Franklin County GA - these gentlemen are not our line as I can tell. Thomas is living with his father in the 1860 census and William F. is next door. Our Thomas was married in 1860 to Emily Gastley (*Mary Ann Gastely).
John George Wheeler always stated that he was 13 months old when his father died. That would mean that Thomas H. Wheeler died in November 1862. just for thought

Granny, Ella Ree Stover, told the story of her Grandfather Wheeler promising to leave her mother, Mary Elizabeth Wheeler Stover a farm when he died. He told her if she left her first husband, Charles Miles, that he would provide a farm for her. When he died he left all of his boys farms and didn't leave the girls anything at all. Uncle Red, Joseph Chastain Stover, personally went there to read the will, he was sure there was some mistake but the will did leave her out completely.
Also, I was told by Granny that when George Wheeler died he had no cash money and no one could locate it. The family thought he had alot of money and he was known for buring his money in jars around his property. Granny was in New Orleans and went to see a fortune teller a few months after his death. Of course she didn't believe in them and was just having fun with a Army friend. The fortune teller told her that she had just lost a family member and that his money was missing. She then proceeded to tell Granny where to find it. I ask Granny if she ever went to look for it and she said NO WAY!! That the lady scared her to death and she would not dare go look.
