S. Clyde Weaver married Emma Weaver, and between their resources founded the business,  S. Clyde Weaver Smoked Meats and Cheese. It is said that Emma's father obtained a recipe for Lebanon bologna from a "hobo" who stopped for respite at the Weaver farm.  This recipe helped put S. Clyde Weaver's "on the map."
