NOTES:
1: I have not yet found the record of their marriage, but have been told that they were married in Buffalo.
2: George Robert Weber was killed in a bicycling accident on his way home from work.
3: Some of the recorded information on Eliza Ann (Buckner) Weber was incorrect and I had my doubts as to whether she was the right person, but a comparison of DNA between myself and her great-grandson proved that our great grandmothers were indeed sisters, and that we are 3rd cousins.
4: The above information is based on stories related to me by my grandmother, Mary (Newberry) Madden and her sister, Lorraine (Newberry) Greengrass; as well as scanned images of birth records and various census returns at www.ancestry.co.uk. I am also indebted to Eliza Ann's grandson and great-grandsons for the wealth of information they provided on George Robert Weber and his family.
