The wife of John Conrad Weiser. From his autobiography:
"In 1720, while my father was in England, I married my Ann Eve, and was given her in marriage, by the Rev. John Frederick Heger, Reformed clergyman, on the 22d of November, in my father's house in Schochary [New York]."
In 1729, Conrad and Eve moved their family south to Pennsylvania and settled in the Tupelhocken settlement in what would become Berks county.
Eve gave birth to fourteen children altogether. She survived her husband by twenty-one years and was buried at his side after dying at the home of her son Peter on 11 Jun 1781.
The photo of her tombstone, taken in 1906, gives her birth date as 25 Jan 1730 (much too late) and her death date as 27 Dec 1778. The year of her birth is uncertain. She may have been born as late as 1705, which would have made her age fifteen at time of marriage. There is no record of when this tombstone was set up, and it may have been long after her death.
