  From FindaGrave: Asahel descends from Resolved White who came to America on the "Mayflower" in 1620. He was the son of Elisha and Mary (Loring) Wheeler. He was a Lieutenant at the Battle of Concord on 19 April 1775, leading men from Sudbury under the command of Captain John Nixon. He was a Captain at the Battle at Breed's Hill (Bunker Hill) as a member of Col. Ephraim Doolittle's Regiment. Asahel was a Captain in Col. John Robinson's Regiment during the Ticonderoga Campaign in 1776 and was present at the surrender of British General Burgoyne at Saratoga.
