He died aged fifteen weeks.
From his father's autobiography:
"in 1731, the 15th of February, I had two sons born, who were called Christopher and Jacob; the first lived 15 weeks, the latter 13 weeks, when they were released from the evils of this world and taken to a happy eternity."
According to the Conrad Weiser Homestead website, he is believed to be buried here with his 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."
