Hi, I saw this post. There are a lot of Weavers in Lancaster County. You may want to contact Lancaster County Historical Society 230 North President Avenue Lancaster, PA 17601 717-392-4633 Mennonite Historical Society 2215 Millstream Road Lancaster, PA 17601 717-393-9745 Family History Center Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints 1200 East King Street Lancaster, PA 17601 717-295-1719 At the family history center, they keep (I believe) a list of names folks are working on. They do not do research but may be able to pass the word on. A Weaver friend of mine can be reached at davejoman@webtv.net (david weaver). I am not sure how much help he can be but I'd ask him. Hopre all this helps. Have a great week.
