To Nancy, I saw you message dated March 10 about Mary Wieder daughter of Valentine Wieder. I am a direct descendent of John Adam Wieder 1 , known as Adam. I have a great deal of Wieder info. I show Mary as Polly. Polly was the knick name for Mary. I do not know how or why Mary's were sometimes called Polly. What is your line in the Wieder Family? Would be glad to share info with you.
