Notes
a. Note:   y. The Wielands began as tenant farmers growing cotton. Brin Switch was named for the railroad switch located there. It is five miles north of Terrell, Texas on Hwy. 34. No one knows why they decided to leave all their families and start anew in Texas, except the weather would possibly be kinder. Ida stayed behind for awhile, because we have a postcard from her from Illinois, and she was living in Indianapolis in 1910, working as a house servant. Memories about John Adam from his granddaughter Helen Troy: He was never sick, up to the day he died. In his last few years he lived with his son, Charles Franklin and family. On the day he died, he woke up that morning and said he didn't feel like breakfast and would go lay down. The doctor was called and said he would not make it through the day. His son and son's wife sat with him all day as he drifted away. Around 8 p.m. he sat upright and declared that he was going now, waved goodbye and died right then.
  From an article in the Daily-Tribune of Dec. 28, 1942: "John A. Wieland Farmer of Tona Dies Suddenly. Had Been Resident Kaufman County Since 1907. J. A. Wieland passed away at the home of his son, Charley Wieland in the Brin Switch community at 8 o'clock Sunday night. While he had been confined to his home for some time, he was feelling as well as usual Sunday morning when he became ill, passing away at the above hour. The body was removed to Anderson-Clayton Bros. funeral home where it will remain until the funeral hour. The service is to be held in the chapel at 4:30 Wednesday afternoon with Ira B. Sandusky, minister of the Church of Christ, and Dr. T. J. Doss, pastor of the first Baptist church conducting the service. Interment will be made in Oakland Memorial Park. John A. Wieland was a native of Sandusky, Ohio, born February 22, 1857. He married Miss Jane Bishop on July 12, 1880 to which union nine children were born, two of whom together with his wife, preceded him in death. Surviving him are three daughters, Mrs. R. J. Price of Athens, Mrs. Helen Askew of Dallas, Miss Annie Wieland of Washington D. C., four sons, T.E. Wieland and C.F. Wieland, all of Terrell, C. H. Wieland of Dallas, six grandchildren, one brother, Fred Wieland of Kansas, Illinois. The Wielands came to Texas and to Kaufman county in 1907. With the exception of three years spent on the James O. Conner farm, west of the city, they lived in the Brin Switch community. He had spent his life as a farmer and was recognized as one of the leading farmers of the county for thirty years, having retired only a few years ago. Active pallbearers; T.W. Stutts, B.J. Love, R.L. Clowers, Sam Slayton, Luke Brooks."
Note:   Mary Helen Haines research: John Adam and his large family moved to Texas in 1907. They came to Kaufman County and settled in the Brin Switch community--a large land holding named after the Brin famil
