Surnames: EDICK, WEAVER, FRANK
In my records, I have a Catherine Frank, b. abt. 1831 who married Jacob Michael Ittig about 1755; Jacob died in 1770 from lockjaw after stubbing his toe in some sort of jumping contest. Jacob was the son of Christian Ittig and Margaretha Weaver.

I also have a Catherine Frank, born about 1731 the daughter of immigrant Stephen Franks (Holstein, Germany); she married Nicholas Weaver abt. 1772. This Nicholas is the son of Henrich Nicholas Weaver and Anna Margaretha. Henrich is the son of immigrant Nicholas Weaver and Barbara.

Nancy has responded that the two women are probably one and the same - I agree, however, I have not located any other documentation that substantiates this, only the book she referenced. I would like to locate the marriage record of Nicholas and Catherine that would probably provided more information.

The Edick, Weaver and Frank(s) families are so intertwined it is difficult at times to extrapulate accurate information. And to make matters even more difficult, there are several Nicholas Weavers.

I also located this information pertaining to a Nicholas Weaver ...
There is an old story about a house that was destroyed by fire, killing some of the family members, owned by a Weaver family in Deerfield. Apparently, the house once stood on Trenton Road (from Utica to Deerfield) past Willow Drive. Those who perished in the fire were buried in a small area on top of a hill just past the house on the left. The story relates that this area has been haunted by "Mr. Weaver, who every Halloween walks with a lamp into the woods and up to the grave sight (site). And every so often you can see his family walking..." But which Nichoals Weaver family?
