Notes:

Henry or John Henry (John, Gr. Meyer), married to Anna Engle, so stated on an old deed (see page 22), but his granddaughter, Mrs. Martha Zerbe, says his wife was a Miss Rath. The date of his birth was not ascertained ; it is said he died Nov., 1812. George Meyer, Dauphin, Pa., states he often heard his grandmother, Catharine (Schaeffer) Meyer, say that Henry was the only brother that his grand- father John had; and that at one time he owned the Mühlbach homestead, but being unable to keep it, his grandfather John (Henry's brother) bought it at the solicitation of his grandmother Catharine, so that the old home should remain in the Meyer name. See deed, page 22.
There were three children, two sons and one daughter.
