Regarding the name "Weilach": The farm was located in a damp area ("Lachen" = puddles) with many willow trees. Source:

Today, this spot offers a beautiful view of a wide clearing (where I've even seen horses). Furthermore, a beautiful bench (donated by a private individual) now stands at this historic site: "Dem Maddin sei Bank." Thank you!

To the right of the bench and the ruins stands one of the over 300 knight stones of the Palatinate Forest Association, which points to this former farm: komoot.com/de-de/highlight/4414876

The Weilacher Hof was property of the Leininger counts. The farm was attacked and burned by a robber band around 1790. Since then, the "old house" is a ruin.
