      Page: He was the first to be buried in the family graveyard, referred to as the Weidner-Robinson Graveyard, that is on top of the hill behind his original home-place, now owned by descendants of Jesse Robinson who married his daughter Mollie. She was the next to be buried there in 1796.

      The last person was buried there in 1965. The site is difficult to reach, as the present owners only clean it up once a year for reunion visits, and when the weeds are high, ticks are abundant. We have pictures of the ancestral tombstones. Those of Heinrich and his wife are in German, with a newer memorial showing the English translation.
