Information on the ancestry of Dan Myers was provided to me by Dan’s Nephew, Gail E. Myers, of Jacksonville, Oregon. Gail spent a lot of time researching those ancestors, and made some remarkable discoveries. Here is Gail’s account of one of those discoveries, which was published in The Historical Times: Journal of the Granville, OH Historical Center.
