Born in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, this date in 1788: third great granduncle William Myers, eldest son of Philip Myers. With his brother Lawrence, William co-founded the town of Sunbury, Ohio in 1816. His gravestone in Sunbury Cemetery has been ravaged by the elements, but a bronze plaque also marks the location.
