Note: !BIRTH: 15 JUL 1858 in Troy, Miami County, OH. Census of 1860 gives his age as 2 years old (Dwelling #29 1st of June 1860, Urbana, Champaign Co., OH - M653 Reel 942 microfilm at Champaign Co. Library, Urbana.) Note: day and month is from Death Certificate. !MARRIAGE: To Mary Ellen STAFFORD RIN5, daughter of Emanuel STAFFORD RIN10, guardian of Albert Jason (see guardianship list below). See Microfilm pg 163 Urbana Library for mar- riage data. !DEATH: 31 OCT 1947 at Rest Home, 745 Cherokee Ave., SW, Atlanta, Fulton, GA. Death certificate is on file at the Georgia Department of Human Resources, Trinity Ave., Fulton County, Atlanta, Ga. (Compiler's comment: Photocopy is in RIN4 folder. There are two errors - 1. His father's name was Jason, not Joseph and 2. the informant's signature is a forgery since the compiler knows his own father's handwrit- ing and also his father would never have misspelled his name, Laurence, which has a "w" instead of a "u" on this certificate. Compiler's name is also spelled with a "u".) !BURIAL: LOT 32, SEC. 45,, Oak Dale Cemetery, Urbana, Ohio. There are also two unmarked graves recorded for "Infant Weaver" one 1881, the other 1885. Wife's headstone has incorrect middle "A" instead of correct "E" for Ellen. Note: Order given by compiler to Urbana Monument Co. in June 1986 to have this error corrected. Compiler has since viewed the marker and it is now correct. To find lot, keep to extreme right on entering the cemetery and go to Kenton Monument. It is the Simeon WEAVER lot. !RESIDENCES: Urbana, Ohio - Entered in the first page of her cookbook - "Buckeye Cookery, Buckeye Publishing Company, 1879 Minneapolis, Minn." was enscribed: "Mrs. A. Weaver, Kingman, Kansas, October 11, 1882". Postmark on card July 13, 1904 giving address: 246 West 22 St. New York, N.Y. (see Postcard in file folder 3-4,3-5) Nanuet, Rockland Co., N.Y. (home owned by son, Frank) - San Diego, Ca - Atlanta, Ga. (at home of son, Laurence {sr.} at 2890 Howell Mill Rd NW and later at a Rest Home near Little Five Points, Atlanta) !VOCATION: The complier has little or no knowledge of the work record of his grandfather although he stayed with his grand- parents frequently from about 1924 on. Compiler remembers listening to 1924 Democratic Convention on radio in Nanuet, Rockland County, N.Y. where they cared for home owned by son, Frank S. WEAVER, while he traveled throughout the country with his wife (nickname - May) on vaudeville circuits using stage name of Frank STAFFORD. Earlier than compiler's knowledge, his grandfather had lost many fingers in a rail accident when he, according to family stories, was a railroad worker. This is not proven, but since his uncle, Lemuel WEAVER, was Secretary and Treasurer of the Mad River and Lake Erie Railroad (later part of the Big Four, this could have been where he worked. Stories were also told of his operating a sheep ranch in Kingman, Kansas, where his father-in-law, (and one-time guardian), Emanuel STAFFORD also farmed. !SOURCE(1): Personal knowledge of compiler, his grandson. - Files #O-1543 on Albert WEAVER and his brother, Henry, and #O-2473 of his grandfather, Henry WEAVER at the Probate Office of the Champaign County Court House, Urbana OH. !SOURCE(2): In the Probate Dept of the Champaign County Court- house the file on the affairs of Henry Weaver-1816 will be found Champaign Common Pleas Partition #3705 of 9 April 1872. A Sheriff's Sale resulted. 1/3 go to Louisa, 1/3 to her brother, Lemuel-97, and the other 1/3 which would have gone to deceased brother, Jason-8, would be divided in 5ths to Thomas-79, Charles-78, William-81, Henry-82 and Albert-4.
