Gervase Wheeler (1815-1889) was a British architect who designed homes in the United States. Wheeler moved to the U.S. in the 1846 or 1847 and stayed until the 1860s, when he returned to London.[1] Wheeler's father, who was also named Gervase, worked as a manufacturer of gold, silver and gilt jewelry in Holborn, then just outside London.[1]
