An Info: The Wheeler Bicycle Chair, H.G. Wheeler Maker?

[New Mexico Brant]

I have been trying to find out any information on: The Wheeler Bicycle Chair, H.G. Wheeler Maker, Marlboro, Mass. & St. Augustine, Fla. I was able to find out Mr. Wheeler was a very skilled marksmen/shooter but nothing on the company. Kind thanks for any help or information.
