What's Weaver all
?
Located along Weaver Creek, Weaver shares the Rich Hill area with Stanton and Octave. The town was named after Pauline Weaver, a guide, who happened upon a gold find. Thugs, thieves and criminals inhabited Weaver when the gold mine was exhausted. There is a cemetery there, and there are a few other items to see such as the walls of the Weaver post office.
