Hi All! This morning I received this note and thought I'd pass it on to all of you guys and gals who might have more knowledge about this. Thanks!

It came up as I was bringing up E Newswanger on Google. I have an antique spinning wheel I'm researching. The makings of the wheel indicate it was made in the area of Lancaster County, PA. I estimate the wheel to have been made between 1810 and 1840. It's stamped as being made by an E Newswanger. I found an article, indicating the town of Morgantown (also called Caernarvon), Lancaster/Berks County, PA., had a spinning wheel maker by 1806. I also found, in the 1810 Census, that there was an Eml' (I'm assuming this is an abbreviation for Emanuel) Newswanger living in Caernarvon. Are the Newswanger's, in your genealogy searches, from this area of Pennsylvania? If so, do you have any information of an "E" Newswanger that made spinning wheels. If so, for my records, I'd love to have any information you might have on this maker of wheels. As you've probably guessed. I collect antique spinning wheels. Thank you, in advance, for your time.
