---------------------------------------- From: "David Myers" <[email protected]> I noticed that there is a query in Brethren Roots for the John and Susannah Myers family of Columbiana Co., OH. I suspect that this is the John and Sarah (Longanecker) Myers/Meyers family but I'm not sure. Anyway, I was considering posting the following information so this is a good excuse. This is the first third or so of the bio of Jacob D. Myers of Elkhart Co., IN. The bio has a good genealogy of the Myers family, a Brethren family, so I thought that it would be a good idea to place the information on this list where people researching the family could find it in the future. The complete bio is at the link, for those who want to see it. I should mention that a lot of those Elkhart Co., IN bios have genealogy data in them, so, if you have a family from that county, this website could prove useful. ****************** I want to second this last statement - my Great Grandfather, Isaiah Rummel, came from Mahoning Co OH to Elkhart Co IN right after the Civil War (with several of his cousins). I found much of my original Rummel family information in his bio. It was accurate, I have only added to it, and it gave me leads to pursue for more information. There seems to have been a migration to Elkhart Co from the Columbiana/Mahoning/Trumbull Co OH and Mercer/Lawrence Co PA area. Most of Isaiah's kin lived in those three-five counties - coming there about 1810 from Gettysburg PA (Adams Co - - although I have found they did stop intermittently during the decade or so while crossing western Pennsylvania - with some of the family remaining in Franklin Co and in the Bedford/Somerset/Cambria/Westmoreland Co area).
