About Margaretha Sieber Weber
Maria is the daughter of the Rev. Hans Herr and Elizabeth Mylin (Kendig) Herr of Switzerland. She married her husband Johann on 1680 in Baretswill, Switzerland.
The family is listed in "Martyrs Mirror" as landing in Amsterdam, Holland from the Palatinate in 1693. Shortly after that the moved on to Freidrichstadt in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. Then in 1710 the family immigrated to America.
The family moved for the last time in 1717 to Weaverland, Lancaster Co., PA.
Between 1683 and 1695 they had 4 boys and a girl named: John Herr, Jacob Herr, Henry Herr, George Herr and Maria Herr Weber.
The three sons of Johan and Maria Weber, were some of the first settlers in the Weaverland Valley but John himself never lived there. John & Maria lived and died in the Pequa Valley, on the other side of the hill which divides the Pequea and Weaverland valleys.
Johann & Maria Weber was probably buried at Weizenthal [the name of the Weber plantation] as the first in a long line of Weavers buried in the old Weaver family burying ground there. The Weaver family stopped using this burial ground about 1850.
No longer marked, the graveyard is located in a field in West Lampeter Township. The 21 marked graves were moved to Longenecker's Reformed Mennonite cemetery in the 1930s. The other 40-odd unmarked graves remain in the field and Johann Anton is undoubteldy among them. (William Woys Weaver: Mennonite Research Journal, January, 1973, pp.10-11)
