  Family History Researcher	SOURCE: TILLY HELBERS-WEIJENBERG Hendricus first name in America was Henry, and last name is written as Weyenberg. Henry set up three of his five sons in business. Henry had a lot of money (we do not know what he did for a living) and owned extensive property. He sets one son up in a tavern, Duces Bar, and another in a meat market, Weyenberg's Meat Market, next door to it, the other son went into Weyenberg's Grocery and the fourth worked in the meat market before moving to Kimberly. From Mike Northway;The Henry G. Weyenberg I speak of is:The son of Theodore. Henry G. was born Sept 6, 1845 in Buegen and died 28 March 1921. He was married twice. First to Anna Bergmans, the daughter of Peter Bergmans and Theodora Hartjes. They married 2 Sept, 1872 in Little Chute. Anna died 1 December 1900. He then married Elizabeth Carney (the former Mrs. Peter Shafer) on 15 Oct 1902 in Little Chute. She died 15 August 1912 in Little Chute.I am going to guess that you had this Henry and may not have realized he Remarried. From what the records I have and what I have been told, this Hen ry was a rather well known business man in the area. His children were a ll in business due to his "money". Duce Weyenberg owned a bar. One son own ed a Meat market and one owned a Grocery.I am mostly interested in second marriage, but also have an interest in h is first due to the Hartjes connection. His second wife, Elizabeth(Mrs. Pe ter Shafer), is the person who was supposed to meet my grandmother when she arrived on the Orphan Train in Oct of 1902. The way it looks is that Henry made her a better offer. One of marriage if she did not take this child. It had been arranged through the church(St. Johns) and sisters at the New York Foundling Hospital, that she receive this child.My mother and siblings, and actually my grandmother, all believed that the "lady" who was supposed to take her from the train was sick the day the train came. I ahve only recently uncovered that Elizabeth and Hnery were at the courthouse that very same day, applying for a marriage license. They married less than two weeks later. Both Henry and Elizabeth were probably too hold to take this child, he was 57, and she was almost 56. As it turns out, Elizabeth died only 10 years later. My great grandfather, Albert Hartjes, was at the depot the day the train arrived, because he and his brothers were memebers of the Little Chute Coronet band. The band was there to greet the train that day. Long story short, he ended up taking her home and lived untill 1966. She ended up in great home. I am not so sure she would have had Elizabeth been there to greet her. She would whave been made a Orphan again in 1912. Since you say you have a very long list of Weyenbergs, is there any one you know of that may possess a picture of him?
