After much research, I believe that these people were buried in the Weaver farm graveyard which was south of Rockvale Road and West of Strasburg Pike.
In the 1930's all marked graves were moved to Longenecker's Mennonite, but they are not among them. Therefore, I strongly suspect that their remains rest in their original location. I cannot find a single early transcription of that graveyard.
