Adelma Vay

Baroness Adelma Vay de Vaya, (born Countess Adelaide von Wurmbrand-Stuppach; October 21, 1840 – May 24, 1925), was a medium and pioneer of spiritualism in Slovenia and Hungary.

She was born at Tarnopol, Galicia, today Ternopil, Ukraine, where her father Count Ernst von Wurmbrand-Stuppach was serving as first lieutenant in the local garrison.

The couple lived at first at Tiszalök for some years, near the Hungarian-Ukrainian border, and later moved to Slovenske Konjice (Gonobitz), where they bought a mansion at Prevrat, still known as "Baronvaj" ("Baron Vay's").

[4] Baron Vay de Vaya decided in 1908 to have another building constructed (at his own cost) specifically for infectious disease patients.

Although she was a Lutheran, Franc Hrastelj, the parson of the local Roman Catholic parish, approved her burial at the corner of the St. Anna's cemetery in Slovenske Konjice.
