INTERIM BIOGRAPHY

Anna Huttman was the wife of Johann Weber, head of one of the twelve families that comprised the original Germanna Colony of 1714-1719 in Virginia. They made the trans-Atlantic voyage from England to America with their three children Johannes, Cathrin and Tillman together with the other families. That ship arrived in America in April of 1714. Some family trees indicate that Johann died at sea or soon after arrival. The timing and location of his death needs to be further researched. He is, however, acknowledged in the latest research by the Germanna Foundation as being one the original Germanna colonists. As for Anna, it appears that she lived first at the Germanna Colony and then in 1719 moved to Germantown, Virginia with the others from Germanna. On June 3, 1724 her son Tillman gave testimony at Spotsylvania Courthouse, Virginia to prove that he and his mother "Anna Weaver" did arrive (in America) in April 1714. Drawings of the layout of the Germantown settlement show a "Weaver Cemetery" on the Weaver family property and that is likely where Anna was buried.
