  • Notes 
    • Later moved to Stephenson County, Illinois. Then moved to Hiawatha, Kansas.
      from The Genealogy of the Meyer Family by Henry Meyer, 1890.
      Samuel (Michael, Christopher, Gr. Meyer) was born
      near Campbellstown, Pa., Jan. 9, 1810; he was married to
      Elizabeth Behler, Sept. 13, 1832. His wife was born Jan. 8
      1815; died May 21, 1867. Samuel moved from Dauphin
      County, Pa., in the Spring of 1833, upon a farm at Spring
      Bank, Brushvalley, Centre Co., Pa., and there began house-
      keeping. He lived in the Valley for many years, and there
      all his children seventeen in number were born. Thence
      he moved to Hiawatha, Kansas, but in what year I have not
      ascertained. Samuel is remembered by his neighbors in
      Brushvalley as a consistent member of the German Reformed
      Church; and as a Republican in politics. No doubt he still
      adheres to his old convictions. March 11, 1884, I received a
      letter from him, enclosing a list of his children. Mr. Meyer
      had resided in Stephenson County. III., before moving to
      Kansas.
