Hi! My name is Jackie Wheelington. Wheelington is my married name and, as a first anniversary gift for my husband (and for a keepsake for our son, Samuel Jett Wheelington), I am doing a genealogy (or attempting to) for the Wheelington family name.

This is is what I know about my husband's family: My husband (Jason Nathaniel Wheelington) is the son of Paulla Kathleen Davis (Houston, Texas) and Carol Dillon Wheelington (Hope, Arkansas), who is the son of Readus Wheelington (Patmos, Arkansas). Readus had 3 sons with Geneva (Franklin) Wheelington (Carol Dillon, Haskell Ray, Gary Wayne). Readus and Geneva changed their name to Bear (Readus' mother's maiden name) later in life. Readus is now deceased and Geneva still resides in Hope, AR. As far as I know, Ray, Jason (my husband) and our son, Jett, are the only Wheelingtons left of my husband's paternal family. Readus was a son of George Wheelington and Lucille Ann Bear (it is said that she was pure Blackfoot Indian). I also know that Readus and Lucille had 3 children: Readus (my husband's grandfather), Oneida (married name Dooble?) and the other child's name I do not know. George (Readus' father) had a brother, Colonel, who had 3 sons: Steve, George, and a name my mother-in-law can't recall.

I am sure this all sounds very convoluted but if you recognize any of these names; it would be greatly appreciated if you would email me back and a) fill in some blanks that I have or b) add your own part of the story. I only want to pass on some lineage to my son, should he be the only remaining Wheelington on my husband's side.

Thank you for your time and God Bless!
