Adam Wayland was born 12 April 1777, and died about 1851 in Madison County. 1851 is the date usually referenced. He was the son of Adam Wayland Sr and Maria Finks.
Adam's grandfather, Thomas Wayland (b. 1681) arrived in America in 1719 as a part of the Germanna Colony in Essex County (now Orange), Virginia, as German immigrants. Many immigrants of the colony later settled in what is now Madison County, named after James Madison, who the colonist's descendants aggressively helped elect through the Hebron Lutheran Church.
In using the index to the Hebron Lutheran Church baptismal register where Adam attended, one will see different spellings of the Wayland name: Wayland, which is used after 1782, and Weyland, which is generally used before that date.
As a child, Adam Weyland was baptized 18 May 1777, with sponsors John Blankenbaker, Christina Blankenbaker, Adam Fisher, and Barbara Fisher. The easiest one of these to identify is Christina, who was born a Finks, the sister of Mary, the mother of Adam. Barbara Fisher was the cousin of Christopher, and sister of Adam's first wife Elizabeth.
