There is no known connection to Tobias WEAVER, my gg grandfather, who married Louisa J HESS, thus getting me into the book. There are also a few WEBERS listed, as follows: Grace FABIAN (b. Jan. 19, 1943) married John WEBER Jr. on Jan. 22, 1961. Residence Ortanna, Pa. No other info. p. 103 -- Harold Clarence HOTTLE (b.

Two children - Kenneth and William. This is a complete record of WEAVERS and WEBERS in our book (sorry, no WEBBERS), except that I have not gone beyond the immediate offspring of the first marriage. If you want any more information, please let me know. I had to eyeball 300 pages to come up with this. I don't think I missed any.
