General Notes: Husband - George J. Meyer


He acquired his education in the primitive schools of early times. At the age of eighteen he began learning the miller's trade with his uncle, John Meyer, of Pine Creek, serving a two-years' apprenticeship, during which time he received $60 for his services. He then worked as a journeyman at the Pine Creek Mill for one year, and then returned and conducted it on his own account for the same length of time. Re-moving to Lewis township, Union County, Pennsylvania, he operated a rented mill there for a time, and later worked for the owner. On leaving his employ he conducted a rented mill in Haines township, Centre County, for eight years, after which he removed to Penn township, where his family resided, while he was at Oil City, Pennsylvania, a part of one summer. For a period of two years and a half he then engaged in farming, later operated a grist and saw mill at Pine Creek eleven years, and for nine years was in the milling business at Linden Hall, Centre County. In the spring of 1889 he came to Coburn, where he was engaged in mercantile pursuits for a time, but later sold out to his son William, and lived a retired life, making his home with his children. He was an earnest supporter of Democratic principles, and a faithful member of the Reformed Church.
