From the Adams Review, 1913:
Again we are called upon to record the passing of an aged pioneer mother. This time it is Mrs. Mary Weber of Johnsburg who has answered the call and passed over to the great beyond.
Mrs. Weber was born in Hirten Germany, January 30, 1831, and died at the home of her son-in-law, John Mullenbach, in Johnsburg, Minn., Sunday, February 16, 1913. She ran the course of her life in 82 years and 17 days.
She came to America with her parents in 1842, when but a girl of 11 years, and settled in Johnsburg, Ill. Here it was that she met John Weber and was united in marriage with him in 1848. With him she came to Minnesota, settling near Johnsburg in 1857, and this has been her home since.
What can be said of all pioneer mothers can be truthfully said of her. She was a faithful wife, a loving mother and a true friend and neighbor. Every pioneer left here has but the highest praise for her.
She leaves to mourn her loss two brothers, Peter Adams of Little Falls, Minn., Casper Adams of McHenry, Ill., also one sister, Mrs. Shaffer, of McHenry, Ill., two sons Nick Weber of Johnsburg and Matthias Weber of McHenry, Ill., and two daughters, Mrs. Mary Sabel of Adams and Mrs. Anna Mullenbach of Johnsburg. Besides these she leaves 36 grand-children and 30 great grand children.
Vain is the attempt to measure the loss of a mother to her children; as they gathered around her bedside, her boys and her girls - always boys and girls to her, though now grown to mature years with boys and girls of their own, as the death dew gathered on her brow, they watched with tearful eyes the life so long interwoven with theirs pass out to eternity. Each death is a link that binds us to the beyond, so we should live and do that which when our time comes we will be found a good link in the endless chain of the plan of Nature.
Funeral services conducted by Father Dolle were held in the church at Johnsburg Wednesday morning, interment following in the cemetery adjoining.
