Re: Christian Myer(s); 1688 Ger>Saugerties, NY

Curious if there is a connection. I am searching for the parents of my GGGG-Grandfather Abraham Myers. Maybe Abraham is a son of you Jacob or someone else close????

My Abraham was born around 1776 in Cumberland County Pennsylvania. He married Mary ____ in 1803 and then moved to Harrison County West Virginia. They had atleast one child that I know of so far: Priscilla. Mary died in 1815, and Abraham remarried almost immedeately that same year to Elizabeth McGlothlin (daughter of Henry). They had at least 2 sons: Jacob (1820 - my GGG-Grandfather) and George (1821). Abraham died in 1821, while Elizabeth survived him nicely on in to the 1860's
