I looked at some of the examples of early 1800s use of "where are you?" and it seems to be used often as "where are you going?" (most common) or something else like for example "from where are you buying that?" etc.

Also seems like the way they process it, it doesn't just look for the immediate following question mark, the question mark can be later on.
