Surnames: St. Johannis Church, Adell Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/2FC.2ACI/1733.1 Message Board Post: Hi Tom, I don't know anything about the church itself, but I am almost positive that Adell was part of the town of Sherman. I would also like to find out for sure, because there was a Weisnicht family living in 1860 in the Town of Abbot, which listed Adell as the post office. I would like to find out what church people attended who lived in Abbot. I think the Weisnicht family were Lutheran or Presbyterian , or some other non-Catholic religion. They were German too. Ruth

Bethany Lutheran Church, Kohler, was the scene of the 3:30 o'clock service, read by the Rev. E. L. Burfiend. Floral arrangements of palms and hydrangeas decorated each side of the altar. Parents of the couple are Mr. and Mrs. Claude Spielvogel, Route 2, Upper Rd., Sheboygan, and Mr. and Mrs. Adolph Heisdorf, who live on the same route. The bride's waltz-length gown featured a lace bodice and a bolero with small pointed collar and long fitted sleeves. Lace and tulle were fabrics of the boufant skirt and the lace appliqued veil cascaded from a crown of tiny seed pearls. A white orchid was surrounded by carnations and lillies-of-the-valley in the bridal bouquet. The bride's father gave her in marriage. Gowns worn by the maid of honor, Miss Janice Spielvogel, sister of the bride, and Miss Carol Grohskopf, the bridesmaid, were identical in yellow and orchid shades, respectively. They were fashioned with lace bodies and boleroes and tunics of lace with flounces at the bottoms of the bouffant skirts. Green dresses, styled similarly, were donned by the flower girls, Claudia and Mary Spielvogel, sisters of the bride. The bridal aids held bouquets of orchid, yellow and pink carnations. A brother of the bride, Richard Spielvogel, assumed duties of best man and Martin Bangert Jr. was in the groomsman role. The ushers were Richard and Wayne Spielvogel, brothers of the bride. During the wedding ceremony, the Sheboygan Lutheran Corus sang "Song of Ruth" and "Take Thou My Hand and Lead Me." Dinner was served to a group of 60 relatives and friends at V.F.W. Home.

Pat, Slowly these will be added to the website. However, I have found myself trying to keep everyone happy and finding that I have 5 different projects going at once. To make myself less crazy, I have decided it would make more sense to complete one thing at a time. So, as soon as the Vital Deaths are done, then I will finish Wildwood cemetery and will go on from there. I have purchased one microfilmed newspaper, not the 1856 you seek, but I certainly will keep it in mind when the next roll is purchased. Debie P.S. As for other news articles, they will be added in between the other information as it comes in.
