Shirley, are you related to Jacob Myers decendents as in this webpage? http://www.cathyswebpages.com/genealogy/myers.html I was in Morgantown this weekend looking for information on my ggf James O. Tuhill and his role in the United Mine Workers and found numerous articles in the August 1902 timeframe in the Preston County Journal. This included quite a bit if information about Elias Myers who was the weighman at Merchants Coal Company in Tunnelton until the time of the 1902 3 month lockout, and thereafter Elias became a barber. Very interesting story all wrapped up in the huge 1902 UMW organizing campaign, Mother Jones, the Anthracite Coal Wars in Eastern PA. Just wondering if Elias Myers is of the Myers you are researching?

Hi Art, I don't recognize the name but who knows when I start branching out into sibblings and families. My family mostly came from Somerset Co., PA to Fayette Co., PA and back into Garrett Co., MD. A lot of the siblings I am sure, spread out and Moyers went into WV. So nice to hear from you.

Art, I went through the website and it is not my Jacob Myers. I have found so many Jacob's over the years. I have a g-uncle Jacob who had sons Paul, Warren and 6 more that I can't remember off the top of my head and they moved to Canton in the 40's. He was the s/o of Elijah and married Elizabeth Grace Friend s/o my grandfather Orval so we are related every which way.
