NOTE: I have no connection, no further information and am not seeking additional information. 11359 WARREN CO – HUBERT PRENTICE MYERS – Myers, Kirby, Barrick 11359 History of Kentucky by Judge Charles Kerr, Editor, By William Elsey Connelley and E. M. Coulter, Ph. D., Department of History, University of Georgia. In Five Volumes, Volume V, The American Historical Society, Chicago and New York, 1922 Hubert Prentice Myers, district manager of the Central Home Telephone and Telegraph Company, is one of the business men of Bowling Green who has worked his way from small beginnings to a position of independence and importance. In no period of his career has he been specially favored by fortune or circumstance, but through the ready recognition and use of ordinary opportunities he has been able to rise steadily and his life is therefore one of typical self made manhood. Mr. Myers was born in Warren County, Kentucky, October 12, 1882, a son of W. H. and Helen (Kirby) Myers. He belongs to a family which is of Scotch- Irish origin and the American progenitor of which immigrated to this country some time in early colonial days, settling in Virginia. In that state, in 1822, was born the grandfather of Hubert P. Myers, George W. Myers, who became a pioneer in Allen County, Kentucky, near Allen Springs, where he died in 1897 after many years passed in agricultural pursuits. He married Miss Sophia Barrick, who was born in Barren County, Kentucky, in 1823, and died near Allen Springs, in October, 1920.
