Personal note from a grandson: My grandfather George Ernest Moyer (1878-1956) rebuilt organs as my sisters and cousins may well remember. He loved music whether singing as a soloist in any congregation or choir even if it were something other than his Methodist Episcopal Church.

He was twice married; first to Elizabeth Meyer, and after her decease to Sarah Erensperger, a lady from near Lexington, Ky., during the latter part of 1814 or the beginning of the year 1815. His second wife was born in Pennsylvania, April 1, 1790; died at the residence of her daughter, Matilda Houser, in Logan county, Illinois. When Elizabeth, his first wife was born, is not known; she is buried by the side of her husband. He moved to Kentucky about the year 1801, perhaps a year later, thence to Felicity, Ohio, where he lived during the balance of his years, engaged in farming. He was a member of the New School Presbyterian Church. (Philip's descendants write their name Moyer.)
There were sixteen children, nine sons and seven daughters.
