Looking at her brother, John who was born two years before she was, he was born in Ohio. I changed her birthplace from Grainger, Tennessee to Highland Co., Ohio. 9
1850 census age = 44, 1860 census age = 54. After James' death, Anna traveled a lot. She visited Weyer relatives, whose name was not Weyer, in California. In 1880, she was in Streator, Illinois. ------------------------------------------------------ I found an Anna Parker in the 1870 census for, Prairie City, McDonough Co, Illinois, page 517.

The age and the birth states don't fit with what is known about Anna. Next records indicate the Anna Weyer died in January, 1880 in Streator, Illinois. The 1880 census was later than her death date. Unsure what Anna Parker this is. It still could Anna Weyer and my death dates are wrong. The names of the other house members don't exist in any other families in my tree data. ------------------------------------------------------ Case 2160.2, March, 1853 James H Stipp vs James R. Parker This deals with some property and mortgage on said property. It appears to have been closing out the agreement made between the two people. The property : the undivided on half of twenty two feet and eight inches off the east side of lot no. one hundred and eight (108) in the town of Canton, county of Fulton, State of Illinois. The proceedings stretched from 1849 to 1853. This would indicate that James was still living in Fulton county in 1853. In the proceedings, Anny is mentioned, also Jacob Parker signed and a Mary Parker. Jacob is most likely James and Anna's son. Mary unknown, their daughter is only five at the time of the first paper, 1849. Could it be Maria or some other unknown Mary. Couldn't find one that would be of legal age in 1849 except for Maria. ------------------------------------------------------ Husband: James Reed Parker September 25, 1828 by William Parker, JP, in Highland County, Ohio.

(PGD0042) In a court case, 829, dated June, 1839, Barton was dispositioned by the court. the case had to do with Jacob Weyer vs James R. Parker. In the disposition, Barton was probably living in Rising Sun, Van Buren County, Iowa. At least the deposition was taken at that location. The deposition date was Sept., 21, 1839. Some of the Highlights of the deposition. -He knew both Jacob and James. -He stated he is Jacob's son. -He worked for James for one year or more before Barton was 21 years old in Highland Co., Ohio. Stating he struck fan two fires in a blacksmith shop part of the time. -He stated Sophia Weyer, daughter of Jacob, did work of James R. while she was in Illinois -He stated that Andrew Weyer, son of Jacob, did work for James when Andrew was a minor. 1840 Ohio census, M704_35, page 86 Andrew Weyer; Head 20 under 30; Andrew (1810-1820) 20 under 30; His wife (1810-1820), probably Sarah Text: Andrew Weyer, as a son and heir of Jacob Weyer, received $21.00 from the distribution of Barnett Weyer's Estate. Barnett would have been his uncle.(this data from Bill Brewer comments and analysis of Barnet Weyer's will) Barnett Weyer was alive and in the 1850 Paint, Highland Co., Ohio federal census. The will appeared to be probated in 1852. Barnett would have been about 65. I have searched for Andrew, but, have not been able to find him in 1850. I would suspect that he was near Barnett. -------------------------- Wife: Sarah (Sally) Walker April 10, 1836 Hendricks County, Indiana Marriage Census: 1840 Jackson, Allen County, Ohio 11
