    DANIEL B. WEBER.

    This gentleman is another one of our successful farmers, but he is not by any means inclined to boast of that fact himself, he being of a modest, unassuming disposition, and a man who does not court newspaper notoriety. He was born about thirty-five years ago on the farm he now occupies, lot No. 32 and about one mile south of the village of Conestogo. The farm contains 209 acres and is a very choice body of land. His father, Elias Weber, came here about forty-eight years ago. The latter was born December 9, 1828, and on March 19, 1850, he was joined in marriage to Susanah, daughter of Jacob Bricker. She was born October 22, 1826. The union was blessed with three children. The mother died about a year ago, but the father is still hale and hearty and still lives a retired life at the old homestead, having given the farm over to his son, the subject of this sketch, several years ago. The latter was married to Mary Ann, daughter of Elias Martin, December 27, 1887. They have three children The junior Weber is at present one of the township school trustees, and he would undoubtedly be elected to a higher municipal position were he inclined to come out for election. He has been thoroughly successful as a farmer and annually produces large crops of hay and grain. During the past season he has turned out twenty- six head of very fine export cattle. The general outward appearance of this place indicates good taste and that it is conducted by experienced hands.
