Lauren,
Thanks for checking, that and a mortgage in 1828 by a Samuel Weidner of
Franklin Co., Pa. and Jacob Widener is the only other thing that we have
found in our search. Was hoping there might be something in the newspapers
for 1834 when they moved to Fairfield Co., Ohio from Hagerstown, Md.
This has been a mystery for several who are seeking this information.
Again, thanks for your help.
Mary Widener
