Weaverland Graveyard, 1792 to 1933, as it is today, occupies the northeastern corner of the original Jacob Weber grant of 500 acres with the usual allowances.

The Stone Meeting House, next to the graveyard, occupies its place since 1894.

Harry H. Martin's farm occupies the southeastern corner of the same original grant. This section passed from the Weaver lineage, at the death of Eli Weaver in 1891, and has not returned to them since.

Amos W. Sensenig's farm occupies the middle of the same tract, fronting on the Weaverland Road. It is occupied by his daughter, Martha Sensenig, wife of Martin W. Zeiset, who is of the seventh generation in the original Jacob Weber lineage, through her grandmother, Fianna Weaver, daughter of Dr. George Weaver, and wife of Peter H. Martin, and her husband, Martin Zeiset, is of the seventh generation in the George Weber line through his great-grandmother, Elizabeth Weaver, wife of Jacob Martin.

Isaac H. Nolt, occupies and owns a long stretch of land, divided into two farms lying on both sides of the Blue Ball run, along the south side of the Weaverland Road, West. This entire scope passed from the Jacob Weber lineage in 1792, and never returned to any of his descendants, but in 1836, when Leah Stauffer became the wife of Henry Martin, she being a grand daughter of Peter Weber, it became the home of her and some of her children for sixty-four years, all being in the lineage of Henry Weber, her children being of the sixth generation in that line. Since the Martin family moved away it was the home of Mrs. Isaac Nolt, and her children, she being of the sixth generation in the same lineage, through her grandfather, Isaac Weaver.

Mrs. George 0. Rutt, is the owner of the farm south of the east part of the Nolt farm; this section also passed from the Weber lineage, in 1792, and has never returned to any of that lineage. It has remained in the Rutt family since 1792, changing in name only once in 211 years.

David W. Martin: The first farm westward from the Rutt farm, lying south of the west section of the Nolt farm, left the Jacob Weber family in 1788, and was repossessed by one of their lineage in the person of Samuel M. Weaver, a son of Dr. George Weaver.

Samuel M. Weaver, being of the fifth generation from the first settler, Jacob Weber, bought this part of the old plantation from the John Gehman estate in 1881 and sold it to the present owner in 1896, having owned a part of the original plantation for fifteen years. To show the lines of descent, it might be of interest and good information to say that Samuel M. Weaver was the father of Abraham G. Weaver, of Blue Ball, and John G. Weaver, of Ephrata.

Martin M. Sensenig, the present owner of the next farm west of the Nolt farms, along the Weaverland Road, West, himself a descendant in the Henry Weber line, of the seventh generation, through his grandmother, Anna Weaver, wife of Spring John Martin. His wife, Katie Martin, however belongs to the Jacob Weber line in the sixth generation, through her mother, Finanna Weaver, wife of Peter H. Martin. She was a daughter of Dr. George Weaver, of the fourth generation in the lineage from Jacob Weber. On the same premises also resides Mary Martin, wife of Aaron Z. Hoover, who represents the seventh generation in the same lineage.

Harry M. Martin, the present owner of the next farm westward on the south side of the Weaverland Road, west of the old Paxton Road, now Route 5, was in the Sauder and Martin families since 1788.

Adam Oberholtzer, and his wife Barbara Martin, she being the daughter of Annie Weaver and David Martin, is of the eighth generation in the line of descent from Henry Weber and Maudlin Kendig, through Bishop George Weaver, her great-grandfather, are the occupants and possessors of the farm along the west side of Route 5, lying between the David W. Martin farm on the south and the Harry M. Martin farm on the north of it.

Abraham W. Martin, of the eighth generation in the Henry Weber line, through the line of his great-grandfather, Bishop George Weber, being a brother to Barbara Martin Oberholtzer, owns and occupies the extreme western end of the original Jacob Weber patent, along the road laid out between the Weber and the Ringwalt farms in 1816.

Marvin V. Brubaker, the owner of the first farm westward from Blue Ball, along the old Lancaster, New Holland and Blue Ball Pike, now Route 23, whose wife was Alta Musselman, of the seventh generation in the Henry Weber lineage by her grandmother, Lydia Weaver, who was the youngest of David Weaver's daughters.

Amanda Mentzer, widow of Samuel S. Mentzer, owns the most southwestern corner of the original tract of 500 acres. This farm passed from the Weaver family when Solomon S. Martin sold it many years ago.

Village of Blue Ball. The entire section of Blue Ball, lying north of the present Route 23, being all the dwellings and homes, including the Brethren meeting house and graveyard, the fields belonging to John Landis Herr, and Roland Smith, between the meeting house and the farm of Marvin V. Brubaker, are all carved out of the original farm as applied for in 1721, and surveyed to and for Jacob Weber in 1726, and by a careful scrutiny of the entire tract it will be noticed that only the two small farms now belonging to Amos W. Sensenig, at the east end, and the one belonging to Martin M. Sensenig near the middle of the north side thereof, are now in possession of the descendants of the first settler or ancestor, Jacob Weber.

This same Jacob Weber, also bought 121 acres of land from William Davies, in 1760, in which deed his name was spelled, "Weaver," extending from the Blue Ball Run, westward along the southern boundary line of his larger tract of land, from which the farms of Daniel W. Geist, Ivan Martin, and part of the Musselman farm as well as the building lots and homes from the old tavern westward were carved. But this did not belong to the original Weber's Thal grant, and does not belong to this story.
