Date Correction:

"I visited the Lower Ebenezer Cemetery in July of this year searching for the headstone

of my greatgrandmother's sister. I found it leaning against another headstone. It was intact however covered with lichens making it difficult to read.
I cleaned it up and did a rubbing.

Mary was the daughter of John and Sophia (Evers) Kneiser who are buried at Mt. Hope."

SEIDENSPINNER

John J., Born September 27, 1879, Died July 2, 1880

'The mother asks, where has my son gone, When she cries and is grieving, Say that I am in heaven'

 

The listing for the Ebenezer Pioneer Cemetery contains a "Seiben(r)pinner",
which is probably Seidenspinner from the German Seide=silk and spinner=spinner.
The extra n is a common separator used to help pronunciation.

 

I recently encountered a more modern tombstone with the Seidenspinner name on it,
in the Mt Hope Cemetery on Union Road between Center and the 400.

 

I was in Mt. Hope looking for tombstones for the East Seneca Langendorfers,
Lambeins, and Korthals to whom I am related.
