    3. I am in need of someone to obtain the following information: Naturalization/Immigration/Citizenship records for John Schiele (b. 1830) and his wife, Sophia (b. 1833, maiden name unknown). Both are from Wurttemberg, Germany. I am guessing that John immigrated here in 1853. Census records indicate that to be true for Sophia. Legend has it that John & Sophia met on the boat from Germany. I cannot locate a marriage certificate. They have children together beginning in 1855 in Indiana, and by the 1870 census, John is listed as a naturalized citizen. I am assuming this means that his naturalization paperwork is filed In Clay County, Indiana. I am having a hard time tracking down this paperwork via phone. I would be willing to pay someone for time and expenses to get and mail this paperwork to me. Can anyone help?? Thank you! ~Kelly
