Elizabeth H. Weimann.
Elizabeth H. Weimann was a nurse at Cooper Hospital until she enlisted with the American Red Cross and went overseas. She did splendid work, especially in connection with the Spanish influenza epidemic of the fall of 1918. Miss Weimann contracted this malady and died on November 6, 1918. She was the only woman from Camden County, NJ to give her life during World War I.
Elizabeth Weimann was survived by her parents, Max and Bertha Helen Weimann, of 217 Ninth Avenue, Haddon Heights, NJ, and younger brother Max L. Weimann. The family had moved to 217 Ninth Avenue in Haddon Heights, NJ by January of 1920, when the census was taken. Nurse Weimann was brought home to America and was buried at Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Virginia on January 14, 1921.
The Weimann family remained in Haddon Heights through 1978.
