History: David Weaver [Weber] came to Juniata County with his wife, Elizabeth Stouffer, in 1806 and settled in that part of Juniata County which is now Walker Township. The Weaver Family was originally from Lancaster County. The immigrant settler Weber had three sons, George, Henry and Jacob. They settled in the area that is since known as Weaverland, near Blue Ball. Other Weaver family members are buried in the Lost Creek and Delaware Mennonite Cemeteries in Juniata County. Many are buried in Ohio. [1]
