INTRODUCTION
Abt 1780 , , Ireland
The first serious family researchers that I have found for this Weir family were William Clarence, Lebert Howard, and James Robert
Weir. Three sons of Benjamin Franklin and Barbara (Hartley) Weir, Grandsons of Robert Gardner and Mary Boyce Weir. Greatgrandsons
of David and Jane (Gardner) Weir and Great-great-grandsons of James Weirhis still unnamed wife and infant son who
emigrated to the United States before 1788
These three Weir boys were well educated and quite famous for their work In Education, Recreation and Botany. Thinking that
their Weir family had been in America for some time these three brothers were looking for a great-great-grandfather that had served in
the American Revolutionary War. They wanted very much to join the Sons of the American Revolution. They did research themselves
and other unknown genealogists. They were working with Miss Lubie Davis and Mrs. Harvey Morris of the Washington County Historical
Society, in Salem, Washington Co., Indiana as well as a Mr. John M. Burkett who had formerly lived in Washington Co., Indiana but was
living in Washington D. C. in 1939.
I found it intresting that this was before the event of rolls of filmed census records in almost every library. If James Robert wanted Mr.
Burkett to read a census he first sent him a letter requesting him to do the search. Mr. Burkett took the letter to the National archives
with him - was allowed to enter but if he did not complete his task that day he had to have another request letter from James Robert
before he could finish the search. - You will find some copies of Mr. Burkett's work in records of the 1830-40-and 50 census records.
The brothers knew of the Presbyterian immigrants that had been subjects of King George the Second of England and the persecutions
that they had endured. They knew of the arrival of Presbyterians in the Fishing Creek, Chester Co., South Carolina area and had
become pretty well convinced that they were descendants of David Weir the Covenanter through his son William and his son, James Weir who had married Ann Cowman Rumsey. In the family file under "W" at the Historical Society in Salem Indiana we find a letter written by James Robert Weir to Mrs. Harvey Morris at the Historical Society in Washington Co., Indiana. Read this letter in its entirety and understand how confused James Robert was at this point.

Feb 28, 1943 Scottsburg, Indiana
Mrs. Harvey Morris
Salem, Indiana
Dear Mrs, Morris
Shortly after writing the other day I went across the county toward the knobs to a little school house to get my ration book. There I met for the first time Erastus Weir of 70 years I have often heard my father speak of him. I wondered where he came into the line. He told me that his Grandfather was John Weir (John is the correct name not James) one of the 3 Weir brothers who married the Gardner sisters: His father was James Weir known as "Little Jim" to distinguish from James Gardner Weir "Big Jim" son of George Weir of the 3 brothers. I have often heard my father speak of "Big Jim" and "Little Jim" Weir.
Erastus Weir surprised me by informing me that my great, great grandfather (his Great grandfather) was James Weir and that he is buried in a small cemetery half way between New Philadelphia and Boston. This cemetery is on the old McKnight place now called the Harvey Elliot place. He insists that this iS,true because his father was well aware of the circumstances presumably through his father John Weir.

He said that this James Weir was rather old when he arrived in the region - told of stories that had come down of how the boys would play tricks on the old gentleman and that he would drop into a chair greatly fatigued after work. -that he built a house on his son John's place Beech Grove (That would be toward Salem) - that no stone marks his grave and that now it is impossible to determine the exact spot.  This last is very unfortunate, unless there is a church record somewhere of some mention is made of the matter in the records of other pioneer families, land or census records, it is difficult. I see no reason why I should not accept what Erastus (''Ras'') Weir has said, but however in matters of this kind we must have authentic data and authentic facts but I don't see how the problem can be solved.

Erastus to my surprise was greatly interested in his family history and had been trying to work it out through correspondence with Crawford Robinson and other people. He knew of you and your work with the Historical Society and of this record made by L. L. Weir son of Joseph Young Weir of my line. No one seems to be able to turn up this L. L. Weir or his son rather, but I shall have another try.  Erastus thought he was in Cincinnati. I wrote to Milwaukee and my letter was not returned. I shall certainly look up this little cemetery.  Perhaps there is a broken stone, just as I found at Beech Grove for David Weir my great grandfather. Fitted it together and got the record and will erect a new one.  Erastus Weir from his father said that James Weir and his three sons stopped in South Carolina and "made two crops" then on to Washington Co., This provides a number of surmises apparently they all came together from county Antrim Ireland (Closest County to Scotland) it might appear that this James Weir is the original emigrant of my line in America. But when did they arrive in South Carolina
and where? And when in Indiana, and where did they stop in South Carolina to "Make two crops?" To do that they evidently acquired land or leased it. I thought I was in the original region along Fishing Creek in Chester Co., S. C. Camdon Dist. When I found the grave of David Weir in Paul's graveyard. Apparently the research is not changed. Many Weirs of this Scotch-Irish Presbyterian Covenanters came to this region after their oppression in Ireland.  Did the 3 Gardner sisters come from Ireland as wives of the 3 brothers or were they married in America a either in South Carolina or Indiana. Did this father and his 3 sons come together or separately all kinds of conjectures.  Another interesting point is that the Gardner's were evidently English.  I do not find the name in my list of Scottish surnames that are entitled to wear a tartan, but the list cannot be complete. The Weirs are Scots. This implies perhaps that the two families might have met for the first time in America for what would the Gardner's. if English, be doing in North Scotland, or the extreme north of Ireland. I may say in passing that I am legally entitled to wear four Scotch Tartans my own and tartans of the clans MacNaughton, MacFarlane
and Buchanan of which my people were septs.
What Erastus Weir tells me agrees with your statement in your letter of Nov. 30 1938 that "Tradition gives name of the father of the 3
boys as James Weir." If he is authentic then my line has not been'America as long as I had supposed.
In order to grasp the line up as far as it now stands I have written out a chart a copy of which I enclose with comments, your findings. I
fear that this letter has raised the ghosts of some of your earlier investigations for I do not have with me here all your several letters.
Sincerely
James R Weir
James Robert died 1 June 1943, three months after writing the above letter.
Also found at the Historical society in Salem was a four page manuscript which will be copied again in it's entirety. At the bottom
of page four, this note appears. "The material herein contained was made available through the courtesy of Vivian Talbot of Orlando,
Florida, daughter of William C.Weir, who was the son of Robert Gardner Weir." ( This statement is in error and helps give an idea of
how little was known about the Weir family as late as 1969. William Clarence Weir was a grandson of Robert Gardner Weir. not a son.
He was one of the three sons of Benjamin Franklin Weir and Barbara Hartley Weir.) MH - Back to beginning of text text.
WEIR FAMILY HISTORY
Thought to be written by James Robert Weir
Is taken from the records compiled by James R. (Robert) Weir and professional genealogists. However, part of the information is
taken from an article written by Miller Weir entitled "The Revolutionary Services of David Weir, his son William Weir, John Miller, and
Moses Mc Cowan of Fishing Creek South Carolina. which appeared in DAR Magazine, February 1924, Volume 59. NO.2 - extracts.
Agow Parish, Lanarkshire, was the Scottish ancestral home of the Weir family. James Weir was proclaimed by King Charles II
October 8, 1581 ,in the following language; Charles, by the grace of God, King of Great Britain, France and Ireland. Defender of the
Faith, to our lovits greetings. For as much as the persons underwritten, are by decree of the lords Commissioners of the judiciary,
forfeited in their lives, lands of Lesmahag, Lanarkshire ( and others) "We hereby give and grant full power, authority and commission to
pursue, take, apprehend, imprison, the foresaid rebels and traitors wherever they can be found, and in case of resistance to pursue
them to death by force of arms or drive them forth to pursue them to death by force of arms or drive them forth, etc." Given under our
signet at Holyrood, the eighth day of October 1681, and of one our reign the 33rd year. Signed --- the King In 1684 a milder
proclamation was issued against the Weirs of Lesmahag, Lanarkshire-James Weir, the younger, Thomas Weir, brother of James the
younger, Gavin Weir Adam Weir and others. They are charged with being active Covenanters. Soldiers of the King were stationed in
Blackwood Manor in 1684, the home of the Weir family. The Weirs fled from the persecutions of Claverhouse to the north of Ireland.
Their property having been confiscated and they hunted out of Scotland. They took refuge in Ireland. County Antrim was known as the
shelter of the hunted Covenanters
Historian Hanna says "Many of the Antrim, Ireland leases having fallen due in 1772, the farms, which these sturdy Scots had in five
generations reclaimed from the wilderness Antrim, let by auction to the highest bidder. 1000,000 pounds, which was refused. The most
substantial of the expelled, gathered their effects and sailed to join their countrymen in the New World, where the Scotch-Irish became
known as the most bitter secessionists from England."
Smith's History of Pickens county, Alabama, speaks of "The Weirs of South Carolina, who were born in the north of Ireland, their
ancestry was Protestant Irish, which is as valuable inheritance as an American need wish; they were Scotch Irish Presbyterians of the
highest standing. Their standing is too well known to need eulogy."
These Scotch-Irish Presbyterian Covenanters settled at Fishing Creek, South Carolina in 1772, Headed by Rev. William Martin, they
came from Ballymoney, County Antrim, and had intended to land at Cape Cod, but were driven out of their course by a severe storm

and landed on the coast of South Carolina. In this company headed by Rev. William Martin, were the Weirs, the Millers, the Boydes, the
McCowns, the Piggins and others."
George Howe, in his history of the Presbyterian Church in South Carolina, says, "William Martin and his Covenanters had ill getting
their land, they expected to settle down all close together, but they had to scatter and select land a considerable distance from each
other, they were entitled to bounty, one hundred acres for each head of family and fifty to each member, those who had means bought
from other settlers. The place selected for a church was near the house now occupied by Mrs. James Barger Ferguson. It was a log
building, and it was burned by the British in 1780. The second church was the Beaver Dam Church on land owned by Stephen
Ferguson.
Fishing Creek is a settlement about 15 miles long and 4 miles wide, lying along Fishing Creek, in Chester County, South Carolina,
all historic Revolutionary events: Rock Creek, Catawba River, and Fishing Creek are there. The country is rolling, beautiful to the eye,
with a general atmosphere of peace and Plenty on every side are comfortable homes and well-cultivated farms, the land appears to be
good cotton land, which is the chief farming industry. The old church and graveyards are many. Revolutionary events crowd thick along
Fishing Creek, here is, "Cornwallis Road," there is where Tarleton defeated the Americans, here is a tree on which a Tory was hung.
History says that David Weir had a grandson, David, who was the son of William Weir, This grandson was wounded at Eutaw
Springs and died soon afterwards from the wounds. (Note: this David may have been a son not a grandson', from the date of the William
Weir family) I
Stub entries to indents, issued in payment of claims against south Carolina, growing out of the Revolution for Militia duty performed,
says "Paid to David Weir (Indexed Wier) 10 pounds sterling, for 100 days militia duty, as per account audited - issued November w,
1784. No 470, Book L. by A. S. Salley, Mr., Secretary of the Historical Commission of south Carolina, Columbia South Carolina.
William Weir, the son of David Weir, the Covenanter, was born in County Antrim, Ireland, came to Fishing Creek in 1772. with the
David Weir family. Married before 1777 to Susannah Miller, who was a sister of revolutionary soldier, John Miller, William Weir and wife
Susannah Miller are buried at Paradise, Kentucky. On her gravestone is inscribed," Susannah. The best of Mothers."
William Weir, at one time returned home from the Revolutionary War to make shoes for his family and his son David took his place. This
David, son of William and grandson of the Revolutionary soldier, David was severely wounded in the Battle: of Eutaw Springs and was
taken prisoner to Charlestown. His mother, Susannah Miller Weir, went to Charlestown and procured his release, she took him home in
a cart 70 miles; but he died from the effects of the wounds several months afterwards. William Weir (Indexed Ware) served in the
Revolutionary army according to DAR papers. The name WEIR was pronounced Ware in South Carolina and Kentucky and also spelled
Wear and Wier. I
Since the advent of the computer we find a great increase in genealogical interest. Janet Scott of George and Margaret (Gardner)
Weir line was working on the three Gardner Sisters in the 1980 era. She sent out multi-paged queries and information sheets to known
family members. Unfortunately some have considered those pages as finished work. At any rate her work is a great improvement over
the material that had been collected before and may be found through the Family History Centers of the L DS church.
However we do hold some differences of opinion. - which has really inspired me to intensify my research and has taught me a lot.
I am very impressed with the work she has done. The differences in our opinions are: 1. The middle name of George Weir born 1788. I
have found nothing using the initial W. related to this George. I have 16 men named George Weir in my data base six do not have a
middle name or initial. Of course there is the disagreement about the usage of James and Ann Rumsey or Ramsey as parents and that
will be dealt with later in this paper..
In the Scott work she references other family researchers, Dot Tate of Birmingham, Alabama who did a lot of on the descendants
of James Gardner Weir and Mary Ann Hougland. Paul Long, family researcher and his cousin Olive Grace (Weir) Johnson, Laura Weir
Kehoe of Sharon, Oklahoma. I
I have found Beverly Ruger in Michigan, who is also of the George & Margaret (Gardner) Weir line. Descendant William P.
Morrison, from the Columbus Marshall and Martha (Crum) Weir found in the David C. & Sarah Ardrey branch of David & Jane (Gardner)
Weir. Also Rita and Paula Giblet, and Benny Joe Hill of the same line. Jeff Harmon in Indiana who contributed much with his records
of the John & Mary (Gardner) Weir's oldest daughter Jane who married Francis M. Hobbs. Jeff has done a remarkable work with the
Obiituaries and Photographs of the family including the Obituaries collected by James Hobbs.
JAMES WEIR SR 1754 - 1837
Generation One
The 1820 census of Washington Co., Indiana shows John Wear, thought to be the youngest son of James Wear, as a free white male
16 - 25, I free white male 26 - 44, with 1 free white female under 10, 1 free white female 16 - 25, with two persons engaged in
agriculture. This relates to the family as John Wear age 20, his father James Weir Sr.. (Not aged between 24 - 44 but over 66 this was
not necessarily a mistake by the census taker. A column for an older male was not provided in that census.) One female under 10 and
Mary "Polly"( Gardner) Weir aged 21. This census DOES show an older male living on this property of John Weir. Of course there is no
way that anyone researching this would know that the 21 year old woman was not the wife of the older male, named John Weir. Or that
the older man was actually the father of the young man. But the traditional story that James Weir Sr. lived on his son John William
Weirs farm is substantiated. Now, another problem arises with the children of John and Mary - The 1820 census shows as above that
there was a female child under 10 years of age. We have considered Jane the oldest child but according to the records we have now

INTRODUCTION

The first serious family researchers that I have found for this Weir family were William Clarence, Lebert Howard, and James Robert Weir. Three sons of Benjamin Franklin and Barbara (Hartley) Weir, Grandsons of Robert Gardner and Mary Boyce Weir. Greatgrandsons of David and Jane (Gardner) Weir and Great-great-grandsons of James Weirhis still unnamed wife and infant son who emigrated to the United States before 1788
These three Weir boys were well educated and quite famous for their work In Education, Recreation and Botany. Thinking that their Weir family had been in America for some time these three brothers were looking for a great-great-grandfather that had served in the American Revolutionary War. They wanted very much to join the Sons of the American Revolution. They did research themselves and other unknown genealogists. They were working with Miss Lubie Davis and Mrs. Harvey Morris of the Washington County Historical Society, in Salem, Washington Co., Indiana as well as a Mr. John M. Burkett who had formerly lived in Washington Co., Indiana but was living in Washington D. C. in 1939.
I found it intresting that this was before the event of rolls of filmed census records in almost every library. If James Robert wanted Mr. Burkett to read a census he first sent him a letter requesting him to do the search. Mr. Burkett took the letter to the National archives with him - was allowed to enter but if he did not complete his task that day he had to have another request letter from James Robert before he could finish the search. - You will find some copies of Mr. Burkett's work in records of the 1830-40-and 50 census records. The brothers knew of the Presbyterian immigrants that had been subjects of King George the Second of England and the persecutions that they had endured. They knew of the arrival of Presbyterians in the Fishing Creek, Chester Co., South Carolina area and had become pretty well convinced that they were descendants of David Weir the Covenanter through his son William and his son, James Weir who had married Ann Cowman Rumsey. In the family file under "W" at the Historical Society in Salem Indiana we find a letter written by James Robert Weir to Mrs. Harvey Morris at the Historical Society in Washington Co., Indiana. Read this letter in its entirety and understand how confused James Robert was at this point.
Feb 28, 1943	Scottsburg, Indiana
Mrs. Harvey Morris
Salem, Indiana
Dear Mrs. Morris
Shortly after writing the other day I went across the county toward the knobs to a little school house to get my ration book. There I met for the first time Erastus Weir of 70 years I have often heard my father speak of him. I wondered where he came into the line. He told me that his Grandfather was John Weir (John is the correct name not James) one of the 3 Weir brothers who married the Gardner sisters: His father was James Weir known as "Little Jim" to distinguish from James Gardner Weir "Big Jim" son of George Weir of the 3 brothers. I have often heard my father speak of "Big Jim" and "Little Jim" Weir.
Erastus Weir surprised me by informing me that my great, great grandfather (his Great grandfather) was James Weir and that he is buried in a small cemetery half way between New Philadelphia and Boston. This cemetery is on the old McKnight place now called the Harvey Elliot place. He insists that this is true because his father was well aware of the circumstances presumably through his father John Weir.
He said that this James Weir was rather old when he arrived in the region - told of stories that had come down of how the boys would play tricks on the old gentleman and that he would drop into a chair greatly fatigued after work. -that he built a house on his son John's place
Beech Grove (That would be toward Salem) - that no stone marks his grave and that now it is impossible to determine the exact spot. This last is very unfortunate, unless there is a church record somewhere of some mention is made of the matter in the records of other pioneer families, land or census records, it is difficult. I see no reason why I should not accept what Erastus ("Ras") Weir has said, but however in matters of this kind we must have authentic data and authentic facts but I don't see how the problem can be solved.
Erastus to my surprise was greatly interested in his family history and had been trying to work it out through correspondence with Crawford Robinson and other people. He knew of you and your work with the Historical Society and of this record made by L. L. Weir son of Joseph Young Weir of my line. No one seems to be able to turn up this L. L. Weir or his son rather, but I shall have another try. Erastus thought he was in Cincinnati. I wrote to Milwaukee and my letter was not returned. I shall certainly look up this little cemetery. Perhaps there is a broken stone, just as I found at Beech Grove for David Weir my great grandfather. Fitted it together and got the record and will erect a new one.
Erastus Weir from his father said that James Weir and his three sons stopped in South Carolina and "made two crops" then on to Washington Co., This provides a number of surmises apparently they all came together from county Antrim Ireland (Closest County to Scotland) it might appear that this James Weir is the original emigrant of my line in America. But when did they arrive in South Carolina and where? And when in Indiana, and where did they stop in South Carolina to "Make two crops?" To do that they evidently acquired land or leased it. I thought I was in the original region along Fishing Creek in Chester Co., S. C. Camdon Dist. When I found the grave of David Weir in Paul's graveyard. Apparently the research is not changed. Many Weirs of this Scotch-Irish Presbyterian Covenanters came to this region after their oppression in Ireland.
Did the 3 Gardner sisters come from Ireland as wives of the 3 brothers or were they married in America a either in South Carolina or Indiana. Did this father and his 3 sons come together or separately all kinds of conjectures
Another interesting point is that the Gardner's were evidently English. I do not find the name in my list of Scottish surnames that are entitled to wear a tartan, but the list cannot be complete. The Weirs are Scots. This implies perhaps that the two families might have met for the first time in America for what would the Gardner's. if English, be doing in North Scotland, or the extreme north of Ireland. I may say in passing that I am legally entitled to wear four Scotch Tartans my own and tartans of the clans MacNaughton, MacFarlane and Buchanan of which my people were septs.
What Erastus Weir tells me agrees with your statement in your letter of Nov. 30 1938 that "Tradition gives name of the father of the 3 boys as James Weir." If he is authentic then my line has not been America as long as I had supposed.
In order to grasp the line up as far as it now stands I have written out a chart a copy of which I enclose with comments, your findings. I fear that this letter has raised the ghosts of some of your earlier investigations for I do not have with me here all your several letters. Sincerely
James R Weir

WEIR FAMILY HISTORY
Thought to be written by James Robert Weir

Is taken from the records compiled by James R. (Robert) Weir and professional genealogists. However, part of the information is taken from an article written by Miller Weir entitled "The Revolutionary Services of David Weir, his son William Weir, John Miller, and Moses Mc Cowan of Fishing Creek South Carolina. which appeared in DAR Magazine, February 1924, Volume 59. No. 2 - extracts.
Agow Parish, Lanarkshire, was the Scottish ancestral home of the Weir family. James Weir was proclaimed by King Charles II October 8, 1581,in the following language; Charles, by the grace of God, King of Great Britain, France and Ireland. Defender of the Faith, to our lovits greetings. For as much as the persons underwritten, are by decree of the lords Commissioners of the judiciary, forfeited in their lives, lands of Lesmahag, Lanarkshire ( and others) "We hereby give and grant full power, authority and commission to pursue, take, apprehend, imprison, the foresaid rebels and traitors wherever they can be found, and in case of resistance to pursue them to death by force of arms or drive them forth to pursue them to death by force of arms or drive them forth, etc." Given under our signet at Holyrood, the eighth day of October 1681, and of one our reign the 33rd year. Signed --- the King In 1684 a milder proclamation was issued against the Weirs of Lesmahag, Lanarkshire-James Weir, the younger, Thomas Weir, brother of James the younger, Gavin Weir Adam Weir and others. They are charged with being active Covenanters. Soldiers of the King were stationed in Blackwood Manor in 1684, the home of the Weir family. The Weirs fled from the persecutions of Claverhouse to the north of Ireland. Their property having been confiscated and they hunted out of Scotland. They took refuge in Ireland. County Antrim was known as the shelter of the hunted Covenanters
Historian Hanna says "Many of the Antrim, Ireland leases having fallen due in 1772, the farms, which these sturdy Scots had in five generations reclaimed from the wilderness Antrim, let by auction to the highest bidder. 1000,000 pounds, which was refused. The most substantial of the expelled, gathered their effects and sailed to join their countrymen in the New World, where the Scotch-Irish became known as the most bitter secessionists from England."
Smith's History of Pickens county, Alabama, speaks of "The Weirs of South Carolina, who were born in the north of Ireland, their ancestry was Protestant Irish, which is as valuable inheritance as an American need wish; they were Scotch Irish Presbyterians of the highest standing. Their standing is too well known to need eulogy."
These Scotch-Irish Presbyterian Covenanters settled at Fishing Creek, South Carolina in 1772, Headed by Rev. William Martin, they came from Ballymoney, County Antrim, and had intended to land at Cape Cod, but were driven out of their course by a severe storm
and landed on the coast of South Carolina. In this company headed by Rev. William Martin, were the Weirs, the Millers, the Boydes, the McCowns, the Piggins and others."
George Howe, in his history of the Presbyterian Church in South Carolina, says, "William Martin and his Covenanters had ill getting their land, they expected to settle down all close together, but they had to scatter and select land a considerable distance from each other, they were entitled to bounty, one hundred acres for each head of family and fifty to each member, those who had means bought from other settlers. The place selected for a church was near the house now occupied by Mrs. James Barger Ferguson. It was a log building, and it was burned by the British in 1780. The second church was the Beaver Dam Church on land owned by Stephen Ferguson.
Fishing Creek is a settlement about 15 miles long and 4 miles wide, lying along Fishing Creek, in Chester County, South Carolina, all historic Revolutionary events: Rock Creek, Catawba River, and Fishing Creek are there. The country is rolling, beautiful to the eye, with a general atmosphere of peace and Plenty on every side are comfortable homes and well-cultivated farms, the land appears to be good cotton land, which is the chief farming industry. The old church and graveyards are many. Revolutionary events crowd thick along Fishing Creek, here is, "Cornwallis Road," there is where Tarleton defeated the Americans, here is a tree on which a Tory was hung.
History says that David Weir had a grandson, David, who was the son of William Weir, This grandson was wounded at Eutaw Springs and died soon afterwards from the wounds. (Note: this David may have been a son not a grandson, from the date of the William Weir family)
Stub entries to indents, issued in payment of claims against south Carolina, growing out of the Revolution for Militia duty performed, says "Paid to David Weir (Indexed Wier) 10 pounds sterling, for 100 days militia duty, as per account audited - issued November w, 1784. No 470, Book L. by A. S. Salley, Mr., Secretary of the Historical Commission of south Carolina, Columbia South Carolina.
William Weir, the son of David Weir, the Covenanter, was born in County Antrim, Ireland, came to Fishing Creek in 1772. with the David Weir family. Married before 1777 to Susannah Miller, who was a sister of revolutionary soldier, John Miller, William Weir and wife Susannah Miller are buried at Paradise, Kentucky. On her gravestone is inscribed," Susannah. The best of Mothers."
William Weir, at one time returned home from the Revolutionary War to make shoes for his family and his son David took his place. This David, son of William and grandson of the Revolutionary soldier, David was severely wounded in the Battle of Eutaw Springs and was taken prisoner to Charlestown. His mother, Susannah Miller Weir, went to Charlestown and procured his release, she took him home in a cart 70 miles; but he died from the effects of the wounds several months afterwards. William Weir (Indexed Ware) served in the Revolutionary army according to DAR papers. The name WEIR was pronounced Ware in South Carolina and Kentucky and also spelled Wear and Wier.
Since the advent of the computer we find a great increase in genealogical interest. Janet Scott of George and Margaret (Gardner) Weir line was working on the three Gardner Sisters in the 1980 era. She sent out multi-paged queries and information sheets to known family members. Unfortunately some have considered those pages as finished work. At any rate her work is a great improvement over the material that had been collected before and may be found through the Family History Centers of the L DS church.
However we do hold some differences of opinion. - which has really inspired me to intensify my research and has taught me a lot. I am very impressed with the work she has done. The differences in our opinions are: 1. The middle name of George Weir born 1788. I have found nothing using the initial W. related to this George. I have 16 men named George Weir in my data base six do not have a middle name or initial. Of course there is the disagreement about the usage of James and Ann Rumsey or Ramsey as parents and that will be dealt with later in this paper..
In the Scott work she references other family researchers, Dot Tate of Birmingham, Alabama who did a lot of on the descendants of James Gardner Weir and Mary Ann Hougland. Paul Long, family researcher and his cousin Olive Grace (Weir) Johnson, Laura Weir Kehoe of Sharon, Oklahoma.
I have found Beverly Ruger in Michigan, who is also of the George & Margaret (Gardner) Weir line. Descendant William P. Morrison, from the Columbus Marshall and Martha (Crum) Weir found in the David C. & Sarah Ardrey branch of David & Jane (Gardner) Weir. Also Rita and Paula Giblet, and Benny Joe Hill of the same line. Jeff Harmon in Indiana who contributed much with his records of the John & Mary (Gardner) Weir's oldest daughter Jane who married Francis M. Hobbs. Jeff has done a remarkable work with the Obiituaries and Photographs of the family including the Obituaries collected by James Hobbs.
JAMES WEIR SR 1754 - 1837 Generation One

The 1820 census of Washington Co., Indiana shows John Wear, thought to be the youngest son of James Wear, as a free white male 16 - 25, I free white male 26 - 44, with 1 free white female under 10, 1 free white female 16 - 25, with two persons engaged in agriculture. This relates to the family as John Wear age 20, his father James Weir Sr.. (Not aged between 24 - 44 but over 66 this was not necessarily a mistake by the census taker. A column for an older male was not provided in that census.) One female under 10 and Mary "Polly"( Gardner) Weir aged 21. This census DOES show an older male living on this property of John Weir. Of course there is no way that anyone researching this would know that the 21 year old woman was not the wife of the older male, named John Weir. Or that the older man was actually the father of the young man. But the traditional story that James Weir Sr. lived on his son John William Weirs farm is substantiated. Now, another problem arises with the children of John and Mary - The 1820 census shows as above that there was a female child under 10 years of age. We have considered Jane the oldest child but according to the records we have now
In October of 2004 we received copies of the applications for American Citizenship for James Weir Sr. - These papers are difficult to read because they were written on both sides of the paper and in making copies a mirror image of the back side printed through making reading difficult. Punctuation is at times non existant, Capitalization inconsistant and unusual, the vocabulary, spelling, and handwriting different than we use today.

Source: Burial place of James Weir Sr. by family tradition - and personal knowledge of Erastus Weir thro his father and grandfater James William Weir , and John Weir, that James Weir Sr. was buried in the McKnight Cemetery, in Franklin Twp. Washington Co., Indiana in an unmarked grave. (One of the older lady's insisted that a Cherry tree had been planted near his grave.)
The McKnight Cemetery is a small cemetery half way between New Philadelphia and Boston. This cemetery is on the old McKnight place now called the Harvey Elliot place. He insists that this is true because his father was well aware of the circumstances through his father John Weir.
He said that James Weir Sr.was rather old when he arrived in the region - told of stories that had come down of how the boys would play tricks on the old gentleman and that he would drop into a chair greatly fatigued after work. - that he built a house on his son John's place about a mile on the other side of Beech Grove (that would be toward Salem) - that no stone marks his grave and that now it is impossible to determine the exact spot.
This last is very unfortunate, unless there is a church record somewhere of some mention is made of the matter in the records of other pioneer families, land or census records, it is difficult.

Generation No. 2

2.  JOHN W.2 WEIR (JAMES1) was born 1800 in South Carolina, and died 13 Mar 1850 in Washington county Indiana buried at Beach Grove cemetery.  He married MARY (POLLY) GARDNER Abt. 1818, daughter of JAMES GARDNER and MARGARET WEIR.  She was born 06 Apr 1799 in South Carolina, and died in Washington county Indiana -Franklin township.

Notes for JOHN W. WEIR:
    John W. Weir was born in Ireland ? 1800. John may have been born in South Carolina. His parentage is unknown. John "fits" to have been one of the two males enumerated in 1810 with James Weir in Fairfield Co., South Caroline. He also "fits" to have been enumerated in 1810 with either David Weir or John Weir [South Caroline census]. John died 13 Mar 1850 in Washington Co., IN, at 49 years of age. Burial in Beech Grove Cemetery.
He married Mary [Polly] Gardner abt. 1819. Compiler can not identify John Weir on the 1820 South Carolina census. John Weir [listed Wear] does not appear until 1830 on the Indiana census in Washington County [p. 351]. By 1840 [p. 267], three additional males in his family do not "fit" with the family as listed below.
Mary was born in South Carolina abt. 1793. Mary was the daughter of James Thomas Gardner and Margaret 	Mary died aft. 1849 in Indiana. Polly's date of death is not known. Her four youngest children are enumerated in her household on the 1850 Indiana census of Franklin Twp., Washington County [p. 362, #222].
On 4 Oct 1831, John purchased, from John and Anna Pearson, the Southwest Quarter of Section 1I, Township 2N, Range 5E, in Washington Co., IN [Deed Bk. F:439]. John sold the West Half of the Southwest Quarter on Mar 1833 to Archibald Weir [Bk. G:366]. Compiler found no record of the disposition of the East Half of the Southwest Quarter. Archibald Weir, by 1850, lived in Monroe Twp., as did Andrew Weir. The progenitor of Archibald Weir and Andrew Weir is not known. Were they sons of James Weir?
Nearly twenty years later, on 3 Feb 1852, two years after John's death, James Robinson, Frances Hobbs, and James Weir, conveyed this tract of land [West Half] to David Weir [Bk. X:120]. David was probably the David listed below as John's son.

John W. Weir and Mary [Polly] Gardner had the following children:

	2	i.Margaret? Weir was born abt. 1819. Margaret died aft. 1859 in Washington Co., IN. Margaret was enumerated on the 1860 Indiana census in Franklin Twp., Washington County [p. 110, #807]. She married James Robinson in Washington Co., IN, Mar 1837.

	3	ii.Jane Weir was born 29 Jan 1821 and died 9 Jan 1901.
	4	iii.James [Little Jim] Weir was born 6 May 1823 and died 8 Sep 1889.

	5	iv.David Weir was born abt 1825 and died Feb 1861.

	6	v.Mary Weir was born in Washington Co., IN abt. 1829. Birth (2): abt 1835. Mary's age on the 1860 and 1870 census is "off six years from the age given on the 1850 census when she was enumerated in Franklin Twp., Washington County [p. 362, #222]. She married James Johnson in Washington Co., IN, 28 Oct 1852. Compiler's note: At one time I wondered if Mary was the Mary who was the wife of James A. Mayfield of Franklin Twp. [1860, #865; 1870, p. 23, #175].

	7	vi.George C. [Kern] Weir was born abt. 1831 and died aft. Dec 1891.

	8	vii.Elizabeth Weir was born in Washington Co., IN abt. 1835.

Married

WEIR-FLETCHER - At the residence of the bride's parents, near Carthage, by Rev. M. Waldenmeyer, on Thursday evening, April 22d, inst., Rev. James E. Weir (sic) to Miss Maggie A. Fletcher, daughter of John Fletcher, Esq.

There was a.large company of friends and relatives present, and a good time enjoyed by all. The bride and groom were the recipients of quite a number of valuable presents.

======================================================
Following was written in 1962 by Olive Grace (Weir) Johnson, oldest daughter of James Ephraim Weir and appeared in Weir Family History.

"James Ephraim Weir was born July 13, 1852 in Vienna,
Scott county, Indiana, and moved with the family in 1857 to a farm 3 miles east and 1/2 mile south of Carthage, County Seat of Hancock County, Illinois.	The ancestors were Scotch-Irish, both grandparents coming from North Ireland. They were Coventors and lived true to their faith.

His mother's father was a weaver of fine Irish linen, using a magnifying glass for much of his work. They brought many yards with them to the states. The ship on which the family sailed was cast away at sea for six weeks in a storm and given up for lost before they reached Charleston, South Carolina. (See McCullough)

Grandfather Weir was a cabinet maker and farmer. He made the walnut bookcase and writing desk for James' wedding gift. Days of hardship and privation were well known in the earlier times, the older children sometimes going to bed without their suppers, that the younger ones might have one more piece of corn bread, one piece each being their share. Aunt Sadie often gave her's to James, my father, so it is no wonder he always loved her very much. Their lean years were rewarded by hard work and thrift.

Besides the care of a growing family-four boys and five girls to whom she taught the shorter Catechism, she herself knowing the Larger with references-she wove yards-many yards of rag carpeting, coloring some rags, wanting contrasts, for she had a great love for beauty.

Then there was a big iron kettle in the back yard where she made soap; some to sell along with apple butter, eggs, poultry and butter; always busy, always happy and always hospitable. Because of grandfather's failing health, the burdens fell heavier on her shoulders and she proved herself tireless, energetic, capable and efficient.

Of the nine children, James was the first to go to college. The Lutherans had a college there and father matriculated there in the fall of 1873. The first two years he walked, sometimes riding the distance, staying in town the last two. He graduated May 1, 1877, entering The Presbyterian Theological Seminary of the Northwest that fall, where he was an Honorary member of the Cicero Society.

Life of James E.Weir-continued (2)
The Seminary was first established at Hanover, Indiana in 1829, removed to New Albany in 1840 and to Chicago, Illinois in 1859 at 1060 North Halstead Street. From the Seminary of the Northwest it became the Presbyterian Theological Seminary of the Northwest and later as McCormick.

He graduated April 1, 1880 and was licensed to preach
April 19, 1880 by Schuyler Presbytery, later known as Rushville, at a meeting in Monmouth. The following spring he was ordained by the same Presbytery meeting in Macomb.

On April 24, 1880, mother's birthday anniversary, James E. Weir was married to Margaret Ann Fletcher in her home on her father's farm which joined that of the Weir's. It was said to be a beautiful wedding, the ceremony being performed under a large bell covered with plum blossoms. The bride's dress was of maroon colored silk.

Rev. Weir received a call from the church in Liberty in Schuyler now Rushville Presbytery and began his work there September 1, 1880. It was a Home Mission charge and with it served Burton and Newton. Since it was not far from Carthage or the farm, the Fletcher's gave the couple a cow for a wedding gift, thinking she could be driven to the new home. Bossy had no mind to go, so grandmother said she would sell all the butter made from her milk and send the proceeds to the Weirs. This she did, and with the funds so acquired, an Estey Organ was purchased. Both played, though mother more than father. Both sang well, mother soprano, father any needed part.

Then a call came from the church at Camp Point, county seat of Adams county, a self supporting charge, though Ellington was also served. A woman in the Ellington church wanted to visit a daughter to whom she had to go by train, and to get the train
she must go to Camp Point. She was invited to visit at the Manse en route and promised to bring along some apple butter. This, the Dominie told his wife, adding that he wished she would take it to the Trustees, let them put a price on it and so credit it on the salary. His sole object being to help the two churches, as well as himself. One day a large, pleasant faced woman came to the door, bag and baggage. Announcing who she was, mother invited her in. Right away she said, "Well Mrs. Weir, here is that apple butter I promised you long ago." George, playing in the room stopped long enough to say, "My daddy said he wished you would sell it and give him the money." Mother had never met the woman before and felt this was surely a crisis. that to do?

Life of James E. Weir-continued (3)
She decided to tell just what took place, explaining father's motive. She did and the good soul laughed and said it was all right, she had children of her own. For many years, if any of us were in the house when someone came, we were to hear mother say, "now you run out and play".

After five years of fruitful work and many happy associations, a call came from Bluffton, county seat of Wells county, Indiana, which Dr. Henry, father's close friend, and elder, advised him to accept. This was a larger church with two small ones to be served, also self supporting. They were in Fort Wayne Presbytery.

It was-in Bluffton that I remember father and mother going to the parlor to sing and play after we children were in bed. My sister May and I slept in the room just above, and there was a register to which I often crept to look and listen. The hymns were a first love.

Both parents were very missionary minded, and finding that spirit greatly lacking in the Bluffton church, they set about to help cultivate that necessary element. Mother invited Mrs. D. B. Wells of Fort Wayne, twice, to come and meet with the women, the result being a Missionary Society. Mother also organized the "Whatsoever Band" for children, meeting Sunday afternoons. The members were asked to memorize a verse of scripture with the word "whatsoever" in it. Blanche Karns gave Philippians 4:8, which I never forgot. We had many visitors in the home. Some Board members, missionaries on furlough, students, etc. They were often quite entertaining; such as old Dr. Thomas Marshall, who had visited China, and showed us children, by play acting, how some of them did 'things' there.

Dr. Jesse Halsey, who wrote, "Go Tell John", after a visit to many missionary hospitals around the world. Mrs. Ritchie from China, who lost her husband and little girls in an epidemic there. She married again, serving many years in that country. Miss Fatoosh, native of Syria, was in the states to prepare herself further for christian work among her people. She was with us a week, one full of interest to herself as well as to us. She had nightly meetings at the church showing things she brought with her from home.

Dr. Rankin, whose father helped Eliza (of Uncle Tom's cabin) up the bank on the Ohio side, after she had crossed the river on the broken ice, and who as a boy had driven many runaway slaves from their shelter at his father's to the next place of safety, on their way to Canada. Such stories as be told.

Life of James E. Weir-continued (4)

A couple or three incidents which took place in Bluffton seem worth recounting, to me, and I hope to you. One Sunday morning after we had returned from church, it was at the dinner table, that father and mother found May unusually quiet. She usually bubbled over with happiness. Was she sick? No, and finally she burst out with broken-hearted sobs, "Papa preached a whole sermon about grace (Grace, my name) and never said a word about me."

Another time, one Sunday morning I was all tied up in knots, so much so that the teacher, (who taught us to sing "There is a Happy Land Far, Far Away") asked me if I was ill? "Yes", and I suppose I was, for this reason, a young woman in the church, whom we all loved, was to be married that afternoon, and for several days, and when referring to the event, they said my father was going to marry her. I loved-father-very much and anyone can only faintly imagine the dismay and cold fear which possessed me to hear he was going to marry Miss--and with what puzzled relief I saw him home that evening. Years afterward I told the folks about it.

Because I was quiet and fond of books, father sometimes would take me to the church study with him, there I would sit in a big chair near a wood fire heater, the book shelves all around, full of books, father at his desk in front of the windows, the snow
falling outside so quiet. He had a pager weight he allowed me to 'play' with. It was a clear glass ball set on a base, inside the ball was a 'thing' which looked like a mountain, when it was shaken and 'snow' fell. Wonderful sight!

For herself mother took the Home Missionary Monthly and Woman's Work for Women, for us children, Children's Work for Children, and in father's study was The Missionary Review of the World. Then there was a large (cloth) wall map in the dining room after Mrs. Ritchie's visit. In the last named magazine, I learned of Mary Reed, Donaldina Cameron and Livingstone, etc.

The report for Missions given at the Congregational meeting the following year after the Weirs leaving, showed increase of 100%, i.e. from nothing to a substantial sum. At Murray, five miles north of Bluffton, there was,a United Presbyterian Church, so father advised the group he served, to join them, which they did. Another good service. While in Bluffton father was a Commissioner to the General Assembly meeting in Detroit, Michigan, 1891. Dr.
W. Henry Green, Moderator. Mother accompanied him and they visited Niagara' Fails before returning home.

Life of James E. Weir-continued (5)

At Christmas, at a church program, father was presented with a fine gold watch, the inscription inside the case readingJ. E. Weir, from his friends, Bluffton, Indiana, Dec. 25, 1891. The Syrian Guest gave him a lovely case for it, and mother a pair of very beautiful towels. Mother's gift from the church was a very nice rocking chair.

Because of mother's third illness with pneumonia, the Doctor advised a change of climate, so in the fall of 1893 father went west seeking a location. He visited his brother, "Dr. Will", in Las Vegas, New Mexico, who had gone there for his health. The change was made too late for him, but he urged father to come west soon, for his own sake as well as mother's. More about Uncle Will in his record.

The church at Fort Morgan, county seat of Morgan county, Colorado gave father a call, which he accepted. He then returned home to pack up and leave, having previously resigned. A large number of friends were at the station when the family left, and a good many tears shed.	-

Stops were made at Carthage, where we saw grandmother Weir for the last time, and at Lincoln, Nebraska to visit the family of Aunt Sadie, father's much loved sister. The visit in Carthage was, of course saddened by the very recent passing of Uncle Will, and seeing grandmother so helpless from arthritis, but cheerful and anxious to talk to father about "current events". She was bedfast and helpless for several years being cared for by Aunt Jennie and Aunt Nag. There were cousins in Lincoln about the age of Ed, so we younger ones had more fun.

Aunt Sadie was typical Weir in her hospitality and we found
it hard to leave, for it was with a feeling of really 'taking off', for a strange land. Leaving early in the morning, we arrived in the evening. Ed, having lost his new hat outside the car window, wanted to stop the train to get it (some man had suggested it, in fun, I suppose), but father said it was not that important. The boy must have felt different for later he said he was terribly embarrassed to arrive without a hat. He was past 12 years of age.

Fort Morgan was 79 miles east of Denver'on the Burlington,
right out on the plains. In the far distance we had our first sight of the mountains, 'the Rockies'. This ministry was begun September 1, 1893. A Home Mission Field, the groups at Orchard, four miles to Goodrich and Weldon Valley, (later Weldon) were served once in two weeks. One Sunday, after services and dinner, father would get on his Colombia bicycle and start for those three places, preaching twice before supper and at Goodrich at 7:30 P.M. He usually returned home Monday morning, though sometimes he put his 'wheel' on

Life of James E. Weir-continued (6)

a night train on the Union Pacific, and got off at a station one mile from home. The next Sunday he had the usual service and church school in the home church, and after dinner drove six miles south to preach at the Curry school house.

It was in Fort Morgan that the piano was bought (to be a surprise for Grace) and I took my first lessons by a 'regular' teacher. I had been playing for some time with some help from mother, so father took me with him to play at the school house. Through the years I was to hear him say, "come on Grace, let's go." Never late, he would Login a meeting if he and I were the only ones present. In remembering him one said, we learned that when he said, "8 o'clock" he did not mean "8:05".

It was when the older son started to school in this new home that he decided he wanted to be called George. He had been Eddie or Ed for too long, so an explanation has yet to be made sometimes when asked if I had three brothers. Fort Morgan was in Boulder Presbytery and was a small place with just two churches, the Methodist Episcopal and ours. The first resident M.E. man went to his charge on the same train on which we arrived, and the two ministers met enroute. The people were of the United Presbyterian 'persuasion' (quoting father) and the little town was a good place to live. No saloons for one reason. The George Glassey family, coming from
north Ireland "had settled there before there was a house on the site of deriver" quoting Uncle Robert. Uncle only by courtesy. As the children became of age they homesteaded in a row beginning with the father's place. In order, a question, but there were James, Charles, Eliza, Jahn, Robert and Anna. Wonderful people, as were others, too many to mention, save Mrs. Frank Fosmire, music teacher.

In September 1895 father was installed pastor of the church at
Salida. Chaffee county, Gunnison Presbytery and I think it was from
here he went again to the General Assembly as Commissioner to Winona
Lake, Indiana in 1897. Sheldon M. Jackson from Alaska was Moderator.

Father taught Latin and Bible at the Academy, church related, and where the two older girls attended. He also preached irregularly at Poncha, a ghost town six miles west with a fine old church building. Few people attending. Poncha Hot Springs was four or five miles up the mountainside, a lovely picnic place and for_ swimming. Salida was in the heart of the Rockies. Mother was very active in the Missionary Society and W.C.T.U. being Vice President of the latter. A junior organization was formed which met Sunday afternoons at the church of which I was in charge.

Life of James E. Weir-continued (7)

One time father and mother went to a meeting of Synod in Ouray leaving me more or less in charge. It must have been the first evening they were gone that a slim dark haired young woman came to the door with a pitiful tale, having been sent there by someone who knew mother was always helping someone. Since she was not there, it seemed up to me to act in her place and I saw nothing to do but to open the door wide, and take her in bag and baggage, which I did. Next morning she insisted on getting breakfast and made hot cakes. They were not a big success, and George, whose nose was a little out sf joint because he was older than I, and mother had said, "mind Grace", thinking I had made them asked crossly, "who made these cakes?" Maggie weakly replied, "I did" and in a different tone he said, "well they are just fine." The folks were gone two or three days, arriving home on the evening train. I- was to meet it with the horse and phaeton and bring mother and the bag back, father would walk. I really wondered how to tell mother about Maggie until we got nearly home, but managed to get it out before we drove up to the place. She did not censure, but thought maybe it would be wise if I did not do it again. Maggie was with us for some time.

The Spanish-American War came on and father took us older ones down to see the troops and mules at the noon hour. Salida was a division point so there was nearly always some trains in from the west or east, sometimes both. The men, a colored troop were eating their lunches from their mess kits on their laps, but when we stepped inside the door every man got to his feet, they knew father was a minister by his clerical coat. As we left he wished them Godspeed and safe return. They thanked him, as we hurried away to get hack to school. The mules had been fed in the stockyards and left on the next freight. As we went toward home, the train pulled out and as it traveled toward the opening to the Royal Gorge, their band played "God be with you till we meet again". As we walked, those strains came back to us, as in memory they do these many years.

George began as a messenger boy with the D.&R.G. Denver and Rio Grande, later was caller, then fireman, but that was too heavy a job, so he went to braking and then conductor.

Resigning the pastorate there, at the request of Synod to take charge of a small Synodical College for Spanish American boys, mostly studying for the ministry, the family moved to Del Norte in Rio Grande county, Pueblo Presbytery. A lovely farewell reception was given by the Salida people, who presented some nice gifts...we went by narrow gauge in a mixed train, our household goods being ahead of us. We had a cow and horse, so George was allowed to drive the one and lead the other, much to his great delight. He left a day or two before we did, so when we got to a little place near the top of Poncha Pass, he met the train, happily on his way. The map in a straight line would make it under one hundred miles from Salida

Life of James E. Weir-continued (8)

to Del Norte. Tt was several days before he got there of course, walking the cow all the way. The scenery was magnificant, and breath taking. At the top there were round houses and shops with many trains in, some going east, some west. Father took us children outside to look around and we were told from where we were, to a track we could see far below, was 1/2 mile, but we would travel five to reach it.

We reached Del Norte late in the day. It was snowing, late November and we were very weary. Once, on the way, one of the freight cars got off the track and had to be got back on, so when we got to our destination it was dark. Through the lights of the station and falling snow, we heard a strange sound. Many of the students had come to meet us and were conversing in Spanish. We learned to think a great deal of `the boys'.

Father began his labors there on December 1, 1898 and beside being President, he taught during the week, Creek; and preached on Sunday in the morning in the college chapel, kept his own books and in the summertime visited prospective students. The board finally decided this work would be benefitted by closing College of the Southwest at Del Norte, and all effort at the Menaul School in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Answering a call to the church in Grand Junction, Colorado, father began his ministry there December 1, 1901. We were now in Gunnison Presbytery again. This was a self supporting field, with Palisades being served occasionally.

In 1903 he was again Commissioner to General Assembly. The meeting was in Los Angeles, California and he took Bill with him. He was nine years of age. Upon graduating from high school, May taught a year, then went to Colorado College, where she graduated. George was married to Helen Brink in April 1904, by father in the church. George was on the railroad then and they lived in Grand Junction.

Grace married Norman Shepard Johnson, D.O. June 8, 1904. It was Nell's birthday anniversary and she played the wedding march. Forty two little children with the kindergarten assistant there, beside a few close friends. It was a home wedding, the ceremony said by the bride's father. Norman being very busy at the time, the trip was taken in the fall, but went to our home at 133 Grand Avenue to begin housekeeping.	--

Life of James E. Weir-continued (9)

In 1905 the church gave father a trip to Omaha, Nebraska to attend a big Men's Meeting, then in 1907 he again was Commissioner to General Assembly from Gunnison Presbytery. At the close of six years untiring labor, father accepted a call to the church of University Place; Nebraska. He was there but 2 1/2 years as his health became so impaired he was forced to resign. What he and others feared to be cancer was successfully removed and after a few years rest and living much in the out of doors, he was able to supply when called upon.

The family moved back to Grand Junction and built on some property, one mile north of the city on the Interurban to Fruita. This two 1/2 acres beside a five acre tract, had been purchased and set out to trees, shade and fruit, when they lived there before. So in a short time they had a nice place.

From June 1, 1909 to July 13, 1913 he supplied various churches in the Gunnison Presbytery. Then a little struggling group at Loma, 17 miles west of Grand Junction who found they were not financially able to continue with a man on the field, and asked him to supply for them regularly. On his 61st birthday anniversary he began the weekly trips, taking the interurban leaving home at 8 A.M. to Fruita and continuing in car by one of the members of the Loma Church. The regular stop for these cars was a little walk from the house, so it was not long until the motorman began blowing a signal before he would get to the place, father would grab his bag and get to the gate just as they pulled up, always with a smile and a salute. When he returned at night about 11= o'clock they let him off at the gate. He thought when he began going, that the people would get a younger man as soon as they were able, but times were hard and harder, so after a time he was installed, and continued till he had given them 13 years and eight months.

Attending the meeting of the Gunnison Presbytery of which he was a member, in May 1927,he asked that the pastoral relations between himself and the Loma Church with honorable retirement be dissolved. The request was granted with many expressions of regret. They had been happy, fruitful years.

Later they sold their properties in Grand Valley and went to live in San Leandro, 532 Lewis Ave., California. Getting away from Grand Junction had not been so easily done, for father wanted to sell the places in order to buy a home on the coast. Land was moving very slowly and finally they decided for mother to go on a visit, and they would wait to sell since it was not urgent. Father wrote me, "I do not have to give them away."

Mother went to the coast for a visit, while father stayed home to keep the home fires burning. After a time she returned and all of a sudden father was offered his price for the properties. They got rid of much they did not care to keep, packed the rest, and was free to go. Their many friends helped in every way they could, and it was really hard for them to leave the Valley of the Grand.

Life of James E. Weir-continued (10)

Here some of the children had finished high school, three of them had been married, six grandchildren had been born, one had died, and two had gone away to school. This time mother went to Pueblo, to visit George and Helen, as George had been quite ill and was not yet fully recovered.

Letter dtd. 28 Mar 1927, Grand Junction, CO, written by James E. Weir to The Rev. H. N. Morse, 156 Fifth Ave., NY; sent Dec 1980 to compiler from The Presbyterian Historical Society, Philadelphia, PA, reproduced from an original in their collections. This letter recounts the years of service of Rev. Weir, the last paragraph is given below:

...It will be found that in the 46 years & 7 months & since assuming my first ministerial labor, there have been 25 years & 5 months of mission work Sc 17 years of labor with self supporting churches. I now feel, owing to age (nearly 75) & increasing infirmities, I must seek a rest. I may supply the Loma field for a little time yet, but I must ask to be retired by my Presbytery at the spring meeting. The years have been years of great joy & rejoicing, as souls have found peace in Jesus Christ as their Lord & Saviour. Only yesterday one more found & accepted her Saviour. I do not suppose you expect such lengthy replies to your requets, & yet, I felt I could not sufficiently explain my individual case by the card furnished. Hoping this may not transgress too greatly upon your time, I beg to remain
Yours Fraternally,
s/ James E. Weir ..."
