My great grandfather, Gustav Weyand, was born about 1855 in Ellweiler very close to the Wadern area of which you mentioned.He emigrated to the U.S. around 1870 probably under the sponsorship of his future father-in-law, Georg Miller.Other names of interest are Herrenbruck and a Peter Marker (Peter Marker might have been a cousin of Gustav Weyand and also a future brother-in-law).Best regards, Charles Weyand
