General Notes: Husband - John Conrad Weiser


He was sent to America by Queen Anne in charge of a company of Palatines in 1709. There were three thousand persons in ten vessels. They were sent, passage paid, to a grant of land in New York state, but when they arrived, they were enslaved by Robert Livingston and Robert Hunter, who took them to Livingston Manor to work out their passage (which had been promised them free by Queen Anne). John Conrad Weiser, Sr., got consent of Mohawk Indians to let them have the grants promised by Queen Anne, but Governor Hunter interfered and took this from them. So Weiser and two others were sent to England to obtain redress for their sufferings. Finally in 1723 he brought a party of these Palatines to Heidelburg Township, in Pennsylvania. John Conrad Weiser, Sr., served as the captain of Queensbury Company of Palatines in the British Army assembled at Albany for a proposed expedition against Montreal in the summer and fall of 1711, in the regiment of Colonel Ingoldsby.
