Notes

Illustrated Life Story

Military Service Bet. 1775-1783 MD Regiment, Revolutionary War
After Revolutionary War, was an innkeeper in Forty Fort, PA
*Christening record, thus all ancestors, are questionable! It could be the christening of some other Phillip Meyer. Older brother Lawrence is not in this churchbook, but three other siblings of Philip are. Possibly the other siblings all died, but Lawrence should be in the book??
