General Notes: Husband - Newton B. Myers


He received his education in the public schools of his native place. His first regular employment was with the Adams Express Company, and later he worked at the Eclipse Oil Works and for six years with the Franklin Electrical Company. His experience in that line qualified him for responsible work, as his sixteen years' service in the capacity of city electrician testifies. When he left the Franklin Electrical Company he joined his father in the livery business, and he and his brother Frederick bought the business in 1906. In 1916 they erected a garage which fast became the most important feature of their business, having space for fifty-five cars and a constant demand for all the accommodations afforded. It was located on Otter Street, opposite the high school. The establishment was known as the Myers Livery and Auto Garage. Newton B. Myers also had the agency for Buick cars. Affairs of local interest always had his attention; in November, 1917, he was elected a member of the city council, and reelected in 1918 for a two-year term. Socially he was an Odd Fellow, an Elk and a member of the Royal Arcanum, and he belonged to the Pennsylvania State Firemen's Association. [HVC 1919, 907]
