Daughter of John Conrad and Anna Eve (Feck) Weiser.

She died unmarried at age seventeen after a long illness.

From her father's autobiography:

"The 13th of January, 1725, my daughter Anna Madlina was born; was baptized by John Jacob Cehl, Reformed clergyman; her sponsors were Christian Bouch, Junior, and my sister Barbara."

And later:

"The 16th of March of this year [1742] my dear daughter Madlina went from time to eternity, through an easy death, after a long and tedious illness. Her faith, consolation, and refuge was in the crucified savior Jesus Christ, whom she had vowed herself to in days of health, with soul and body."

According to the Conrad Weiser Homestead website, she is believed to be buried here with her parents:

"Conrad Weiser is buried atop of the small hill to west of his house. In addition to Conrad Weiser, his father, his wife, his son Fredrick, his six children who died before adulthood, and several of his Native American cohorts are supposedly, according to oral history, buried in the cemetery plot. Conrad and Anna Eva's gravestones were the only legible ones, as the various other gravestones in the plot have no visible writing upon them."
