I second you, Betty! Weichmann talks a lot about his own life in his book, but I do not recall Annie being mentioned. Did I miss it? Does Weichmann ever mention Annie in his book? Anyone recall?

No, but then he doesn't really go into his personal life after 1865 in his book except as it relates directly to the assassination/conspiracy trial.

According to Erich Ewald's September 1993 Surrratt Courier article, it was the June 6, 1902 Muncie (Indiana) Morning Star that first mentioned Weichmann's unsuccessful marriage, but not the identity of his bride. They're noted as living together in the 1870 Philadelphia census.
