He was the wife of William H Seward III who was the grandson os Secretary of State William H Seward. That is about as Abolitionist as you can get. Elements of this Myers family lived next door to the Banking Mellon/Negley family on Ellsworth Ave in Pittsburgh. Hunter John Myers married Catherine Eberhard and there is a rumor she was related to the Banking Mellon and Frick families of Pittsburgh who were related to Allan Pinkerton of Chicago. Google The Homestead Strike. Hunter John Myers, from Virginia before the Civil War, had 18 children and only one is account for thanks to writer John Esten Cooke. John Esten Cooke was the son of General Phillips St Georges Cooke who was the head of the Mormon Unit in Kansas. The Daughter was married to CSA General JEB Stuart. Again it's a story of Money, Money Bags, Trains, Trains Robbers and Train Guards and they ALL seem to be related to each other. I am sure Butch Cassady and the Sundance Kid were related to George Wilcox when they blew up that train car with a little too much Dynemite containing money in money bags from Mellon Bank guarded by the Pinkertons. There is a very nice picture of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and Doc Holliday and Wyatt Earp with Teddy Roosevelt and even Judge Roy Bean taken by Teddy Roosevelt's photographer William Edward Myers.
