Lorenz Weber (1799-1873) was probably born in Eberbach, Alsace, France, the son of Louis Weber and Margaretha Anna Pfaff. In 1822 he married Margaretha Anna Walter (1803-1892), the daughter of Louis Walter and Margareta Mueller, also of Eberbach. They immigrated to the United States in 1850 with ten children, settling in Missouri. Descendants and relatives lived in Missouri, Kansas, Illinois, California, and elsewhere.
Louis Blanchette came to Les Petites Côtes (the Little Hills) in 1769. The little village, later dubbed San Carlos del Misury by the Spanish and St. Charles by the Americans, played a major role in the early history of Missouri. It launched Lewis and Clark's expedition, as well as countless other westbound settlers. It served as the first capital of the new state. Important politicians, judges, soldiers, businesspersons, educators and even a saint all called St. Charles home. Despite its rapid growth from a sleepy French village into a dynamic city amid one of the fastest-growing regions in the country, St. Charles never forgot its history. Author James Erwin tells the story of its fascinating heritage.
