General Notes: Husband - Benjamin [2] Weiser
He seems to have inherited his father's roving propensity. After the Revolutionary War he was in Snyder County, Pennsylvania; then he pursued a phantom of reclaiming his father's lands in the Mohawk country; thence he traveled to New England, as appears from a letter to Gov. Simon Snyder, dated April 2, 1788: "Since I saw you last I saw a good deal of the world (that is, different sorts of people). I was last summer at Mohawk River, but could not get matters settled to my mind. I might have gotten a considerable sum for my right, though I shall now, in a few days set off again and am sure of having it done pretty nigh to my satisfaction." This letter was written from Providence, Rhode Island.
