Hello!!    My name is Susan Schmidt Priest, I am the great grand daughter of Ernest Powell and Emma Alley Powell. Their daughter, Nellie was my grandmother.   I am trying to locate a book that I was skimming through while in Wartburg on 20 July, 2023…  The book is titled “ GENEALOGY Of Powell Family From the Lowlands of Wales To The Mountains of Tennessee”..   Is it possible for you to contact anyone in the research areas you are privy to to garner a copy of said book? Or perhaps direct me to another avenue to someone else that might be able to help me. Any help is greatly appreciated..  Susan Priest  (nittanyliongirlygirl [at] gmail [dot] com)

My interest is the story of an emigrant from Saxonia in Germany. His name is Adolph Ferdinand Wieland and he came to Wartburg in October 1848 and stayed until 1855. I have published on my private web page his biography and a description of his arrival (unfortunately only in german). Now I have a question, is there an online access to the purchase contracts of that time? He had a farm near Melhorn Settlement between Mill Creek and Crab Orchard Creek. I think in the Deed Book J there should be something to be found. Can someone help me to find more information about Wielands stay in Wartburg?  (Thomas Nittel  th [dot] nittel [at] gmail [dot] com)
