General Notes: Husband - D. W. Myers
He spent nearly his entire life on the family farm, having moved there with his parents when just six years of age. He secured the foundation of a good education at the common schools, afterward attending the Pleasant Valley Academy, which was followed by a year at Washington and Jefferson College. He profited well by these advantages, and became a well-read, intelligent man, one of the leaders in his county. After his education was completed, he began to work on the home farm.
He was a sturdy advocate of Republican principles. He held the office of school director and assistant assessor of his township; in 1889 he was elected one of the directors of the poor for Washington County, for a term of three years, and re-elected in 1892. He always took an active part in all matters of interest to the county, and with his family was a member of the U. P. Church of Pigeon Creek, being a ruling elder in the same.
