Weaver was born in Lancaster Co., Pa., Nov. 10, 1859; died March 25, 1935, of a heart attack following a severe illness of pleurisy and pneumonia, from which he had apparently been recovering; aged 76 years. He was ill twelve weeks. He was a son of the late Gideon and Susan Good Weaver, the last member of the family of five brothers and one sister. He learned his father's trade of wheelright and wagon-maker. He received his education in the public schools of East Earl Twp., and later taught school for 20 years, studying surveying and scrivering at the same time. About twenty years ago he moved to New Holland and later admitted his son into partnership with him. He was a great historian and delighted in nothing better than to be able to study genealogies and church history. He was a member of the New Holland Mennonite Church and had served as superintendent of that Sunday school for many years. Prior to his time in New Holland he was superintendent at Lichty's Sunday school for a number of years. Regarding his church he devoted himself to the collection of data which he compiled and had published in book form in 1931. The title of this volume is "The Mennonites of Lancaster Conference". He was a member of the Lancaster Co. Historical Society and of the Pennsylvania German Society. He was twice married. His first wife, Angeline Renninger, died in 1894. Later he married Elizabeth Martin, who survives, as do three children (F. Viola, wife of Harry L. Diffenbaugh; Clarence R., and Lydia G., wife of Jonathan Z. Martin), 3 grandchildren and 1 great-grandchild. During his severe illness he was often heard to say, "Which ever way the Lord sees best, is all right." After recovering so nicely and going out a little again, he remarked, "I don't know why the Lord spared me, when so many others were taken." He was always happy and had a cheery greeting for all at all times. To us his children he never seemed to grow old, but was just one with us. But the Lord saw fit to take him from us, and may we ever pray, as we promised Father two nights before his departure, that we may all meet again on the Golden Shore, where no partings are known. Just a few minutes before he passed away, and as he realized his condition, he said, "Well, the Lord is my Rock, my fortress and strength, in Him do I trust." The funeral services were conducted March 28, at the home in New Holland by Bro. Noah N. Sauder and at Weaverland to a full house of relatives and friends by Bros. John W. Weaver (Text, Psa. 91:2), I.B. Good, and John Sauder. - A Daughter. Transcribed by: Betty Hartzler, PA He was buried in Weaverland Cem, E Earl Twp, Lanc Co, PA. A well known historian. Wrote history of Weber/Weaver family. History of New Holland, and history of Lancaster Conference Mennonites.
