I am curious to know what, if any relation, Heinrich Weber has to the Margaret Weber that marries Heinrich's wife's brother (George Betz). The Betz family has a history of siblings marrying siblings (i.e., a Betz brother and sister marrying a Surname sister and brother). Were Heinrich and Margaret siblings? Their emigration dates make it difficult to rely on census records. Heinrich arrived in the mid-late 1870s and was married by the 1880 census. Margaret arrived between 1880 and 1882-- apparently after the 1880 census. So there is no census family that would include them both.
