    Notes:

    Gen. of Meyer Family states he was still living in 1890.
    from The Genealogy of the Meyer Family by Henry Meyer, 1890.
    Frederick C. (Christopher, Christopher, Gr. Meyer)
    was born Feb. 17, 1810; married to Mary Ann Boyer; both
    living at this date Jan., 1890. Frederick is Musical Director
    of the Musical College at Freeburg, an institution of deserved
    popularity in Central Pennsylvania, and of which he is the
    originator. He is a very intelligent and energetic man, pos-
    sessing very decided convictions in religion and politics, and
    his strong traits of character have left their impress upon the
    history of his native town and county. Formerly, for a period
    of forty-six years, he had been associated with his brother
    George C. in the mercantile business ; at present his attention
    is devoted almost exclusively to his Musical College. He
    has also been proprietor of a hotel for many years. Of the
    Meyer history, Frederick is full to overflowing, and to him
    the writer is indebted for much valuable information on the
    subject and for kind and courteous treatment when visiting
    him in 1883. Thus it will be found that his name occurs on
    many pages throughout this work in connection with histori-
    cal facts. He is a member of the German Keformed Church
    Politically he is a Republican, and he cannot understand
    how any Meyer could be a Democrat! Frederick can look
    with justifiable pride and satisfaction upon a numerous train
    of descendants, not one of whom would cause a fond parent's
    cheek to crimson with shame.
