General Notes: Husband - Godfrey Weber


About 1838 he and his family took passage on a sailing vessel from Germany bound for the New World, where they arrived after a long and tedious voyage of forty-two days. Coming at once to Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, he purchased 175 acres of wild land in Brady township, of which only ten acres had been cleared, and the only improvement thereon was a small log house. To its further improvement and cultivation he devoted his time and attention until called to the world beyond.
