Per Contributor: Dutch Weaver (50776211) Dec 31, 2022: As a direct paternal descendant, I've been able to do genetic testing on our line. I recently got results back from a genetics and ancient ancestry expert. He ascertained that our Weaver line was originally of Jewish origin, descending from Italkim Jews who likely were converted during a pogrom in Switzerland in the 1200s. It is unknown how long they were able to practice Judaism in secret.
Italkim Jews=The Italian Liturgy. These Italian Jews are sometimes referred to as Italkim.

Someone named Joel posted a photo on this memorial supposedly of Frederick. There is no documentation for the source & the photo made before he died in 1839. Even though I am admin of the memorial, I cannot delete it. Also, to me, too many have posted photos of his grave with flags with 50 stars. I would delete some if allowed.
