Surnames: Myers Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Hi2.2ACIB/3056.1.2.1.1.1.1.1.1.3.1 Message Board Post: Northampton County is east and a little south of Scranton near Allentown I think. I don't know what the extent of the PA Dutch area was/is geographically, but it does not mean that there weren't any in Northampton county. The big questions are when did our first generation Myers' parents emmigrate and were they related, or do our lines cross after emmigration? I think it would be useful to know how many different Myers lines were in PA during each decade, and where and when each one emmigrated in. Migration patterns although they might be difficult to track it makes establishing relationships easier.
