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.
Women at War Although war was traditionally the purview of men, the realities of America's Civil War often brought women into the conflict. They served as nurses, sutlers, and washerwomen. Some even disguised themselves as men and joined the fight on the battlefield. In the border state of Missouri, where Southern sympathies ran deep, women sometimes clashed with occupying Union forces because of illegal, covert activities like spying, smuggling, and delivering mail. When caught and arrested, the women were often imprisoned or banished from the state. In at least a couple of cases, they were even sentenced to death.
