The Wheaton, Maryland, section of the Wheaton/Glenmont division of the unincorporated township of Silver Spring, Maryland, just northwest of Washington, D.C., is named for him, as is the Wheaton High School, a school in the Down County Consortium of the Montgomery County Public School system of Montgomery County, Maryland.
He was born in Wheaton, Illinois, and played baseball at Wheaton High School and the University of Illinois.
Its receiving schools are Montgomery Blair High School, Albert Einstein High School, John F. Kennedy High School, Northwood High School, and Wheaton High School as a part of the Downcounty Consortium.
The school is named for the Wheaton area, which is in turn named for Frank Wheaton (1833-1903), a career officer in the Union Army who rose to the rank of major-general while serving before, during, and after the Civil War.
