501 from The Genealogy of the Meyer Family by Henry Meyer, 1890.
John (George, Christopher, Gr. Meyer), was born Dec. 30, 1806; was married to Mary Klose, a sister of Rachel Klose, wife of Michel Meyer, Freeburg. See page 114. John lived for many years on a farm west of Rebersburg, Pa., about a mile, near Meyer's Mill, thence he returned to Aaronsburg, Pennsvalley, Pa., where he died Jan. 28, 1878. He was a man rather below the medium height; he was of a very kindly, amiable disposition and had not an enemy in the world. He was honest and industrious, and his word was as good as a note with "approved security." His wife Mary was born April 23, 1810; died at their homestead near Rebersburg, Pa., May 26, 1865, and is buried in the Lutheran and Reformed cemetery of the latter place. John lies buried in Reformed cemetery at Aaronsburg. (We found her headstone in Aaronsburg - Edna)

502 From the Genealogy of the Meyer Family by Henry Meyer, 1890.
John (son of Christopher son of Gr. Meyer), familiarly known as "big John", emigrated from Campbellstown to a farm near Freeburg, Pa., in 1801, a year after his brother Christopher settled there. John, as his nickname implies, was a very large man and possessed great physical strength, but was good-natured. He and his cousin Henry (grand-father) were the most prominent figures in the "racket" between the Meyers and Hartleys at Middleburg, Pa., on a certain occasion. It is said he often visited his brothers and cousins in Centre County. In his time the ties of loyalty to the 'clan' were stronger than seems to be the case now. His wife's maiden name was Esther Burkholder. He died July 17, 1842; lies buried at Freeburg. There were ten children, six sons and four daughters.

Solomon (Michael, Christopher, Gr. Meyer). Born Feb. 26, 1819; died in Potter township, Penns valley, July
19, 1872, and is buried at Boalsburg. He was married first to Margaret Spicker, Aaronsburg, Pa., who was born Nov. 28, 1818; died Feb. 3, 1846. Second to Emeline Margaret Embich, who was born Sept. 21, 1831; died Feb. 7, 1875.
In his younger days Solomon followed the profession of teaching day-school, but the natural bent of his mind was music, and he devoted the greater part of his life to teaching that subject. He was a very excellent singer himself, and as an instructor of classes in vocal music or as a conductor of singing conventions, he had but few equals. His second, wife, Emaline, was also a fine singer and skillful performer on the organ and piano, and used to give instructions on those instruments. I believe all their children are musicians, some of whom have achieved considerable fame as singers and violinists. The family lived in Penns valley, Centre Co., Pa.

William T., was born near Aaronsburg, Pa., Sept. 20,
1853; married Jan. 14, 1880 to Lizzie S, daughter of John
H. Musser, Aaronsburg. William attended the schools of
his town which were considerably above the average grade
of public schools throughout the rural districts and smaller
villages, and being the fortunate possessor of a bright intel-
lect he was enabled to rear the superstructure of a fair
education, which he further developed by diligent private
reading and study. But he inherited a taste for music, which
was stimulated to rapid development by the atmosphere of
music prevading his father's home. At the early age of
eight years he began the systematic study of the science
under the instructions of Prof. T. M. Carter. At ten he
produced his first musical composition which was published
several years later. He continued his studies under several
eminent instructors successively, among whom were Dr.
William Mason of New York City, one of America's most
prominent Pianists, and Mr. George James Webb, celebrated
Voice Teacher, of the same city. Possessing great natural
talent for music; having studied under several of the best
masters in the country, and having subjected himself to a
persevering discipline, William became at an early age one
of the most celebrated musicians of the State. After com-
pleting his course under instructors he began teaching piano
and voice culture, meantime composing quite a number of
piano pieces, songs, anthems, etc., some of which became
very popular. A few of these are here named space will
not permit a full list : "Freeburg Grand March," "La Tutelle"
(Fantasie), "Belle Fountain", "Heavenly Musings", "Full of
Life'', "Moonlight in the Forest" (Nocturne), "Nigalla",
"Sound From the Ocean" (march), "The Queer Old Bachelor",
song, "Walking Down the Lane", song. His health giving
way under the continuous strain upon his nervous system
William was compelled to cease giving instructions in music
for a time at least, and he has been devoting his time and
attention to the Notion and Fancy Goods business at Belle-
fonte, Pa., since April 1, 1889.

Henry (son of Christopher son of Gr. Meyer) removed from Campbellstown, Pa., where he was born and raised, to Centre County, Pa., in 1823, locating near Boalsburg, where he purchased a large tract of land. He was a man of large stature, like his son "big Henry," it is said. Some of his descendants still live at the old homestead near Boalsburg. Henry was born in 1767; died April 19, 1844.

510 From The Meyer Family Tree compiled by John D. Meyer, Tyrone, PA, October 1937
The original Meyer from Germany was born in the Palatinate Germany was one of three brothers who came to America about 1723 or 24 to the Muhlbach then in Lancaster County Pa now Lebanon County, about a mile south of the present town of Sheridan and seven miles south east of Myerstown, Pa. His brother John remained in America but the third brother returned to Germany. Henry with his wife and probably two children, landed in New York and worked their way to Philadelphia, thence set out to find their new home in America.
Traveling westward they came to a small stream and following it to its source, came to a beautiful spring in the forest, and the husband said, Here we will start life in America. They unpacked their few belongings and the next day began building their log cabin. He named the stream Muhlbach (Mill Stream) after his native home in the old country. Theres a tradition that Henry and his family were members of Conrad Wiesers colony located at Womelsdorf which is only about five miles from Muhlbach.

511 From The Meyer Family Tree compiled by John D. Meyer, Tyrone, PA, October 1937.
The youngest son of Henry the original Meyer from Germany was born at Mulbach (sic) in 1734. About 1764 he bought a tract of 700 acres of land between the present site of Campbellstown and Hershey, Pa. A number of the farms comprising this tract are still owned and occupied by members of the Meyer family. He married Anna Maria Schaeffer, daughter of Alexander Schaeffer, who came from Germany in 1740 and settled at Mulbach and was a neighbor of the Meyer family.

516 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
William Albert Hiltner (1914-1991) was an American astronomer, noted for his work leading up to the discovery of interstellar polarization. He was an early practitioner of precision stellar photometry, and a pioneering observer of the optical counterparts of celestial x-ray sources. Director of the Yerkes Observatory for many years, while there he designed and built a rotatable telescope for polarization studies and developed photometric instrumentation. He was the acting director of the Cerro Tololo Interamerican Observatory, then president of the Associated Universities for Research in Astronomy from 1968 until 1971, and was appointed as a director of the University of Michigan in 1970; a post he held until 1982. He established MDM Observatory and led the construction of the Hiltner Telescope which is named for him.

William Albert Hiltner was born on August 27, 1914 on his parents? farm in North Creek, Ohio, some 45 miles southwest of Toledo. He received his early education in the one room school house that served this farm community. Al acquired his interest in astronomy while still very young, apparently from an amateur astronomer who lived near the family farm. He purchased a small telescope and was disappointed when he found that Vega still looked like a ?star? despite the magnification afforded by the telescope. Al graduated from a small high school in a graduating class of 17 in 1932. The following year he entered the University of Toledo where he majored in physics and math. It was in his senior year that he decided to make astronomy his life work. Commenting on that choice many years later Al said ?One makes a decision to do astronomy when one is helpless to prevent it!?
He received his Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Toledo in 1937 and started graduate studies in astronomy at the University of Michigan. This was not the end of his interest in Toledo, where he frequently spent his weekends until he married Ruth Kreider, a former classmate. He returned again to Toledo thirty years later to accept an honorary DSc. degree from this, his first alma mater. At the University of Michigan Al obtained an MS degree in 1938 and a PhD in astrophysics in 1942. His thesis research was on the spectra of Be stars, with emphasis on determining color temperatures through accurate spectrophotometry. For this research he and Robely Williams constructed the University of Michigan microphotometer. Later they published the Photometric Atlas of Stellar Spectra. As a National Research Council Fellow he continued his association with the University of Michigan and observed and carried out a productive research program at McDonald Observatory. In 1943 he was appointed an Instructor at Yerkes Observatory and he and his family, which now included two daughters, move to Yerkes Observatory in Williams Bay, Wisconsin, a village only slightly larger than North Creek, Ohio.
During the early days at Yerkes he continued his spectroscopic studied of Be stars and some of the other pathological cases that had been Otto Struve?s favorites. During World War II Al was engaged in the production of front surface mirrors, and in military optics design and modeling, an experience which influenced his later interest in astronomical instrumentation. It was following the end of the war that I came to Yerkes Observatory as a graduate student and had the opportunity to work with Al on two projects. Otto Struve had suggested that Al develop a program in photoelectric photometry at Yerkes and I was appointed his assistant. We started with a simple system employing a sensitive galvanometer to record the output of a photomultiplier. It was my task to sit near the 40 inch pier, in the basement, in front of the galvanometer scale. From the observing floor above Al would call out the instructions to read the position of the dancing spot of light on the scale. From this humble beginning Al brought photometry and later polarimetry and electronic imaging at Yerkes into the modern era.
In 1945 Hiltner and Chandrasekhar went to Canada to photograph a total eclipse of the sun. This represented a unique collaboration with the theorist Chandrasekhar, for I believe that the paper showing those photographs remains the only observational research paper ever published by Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar. Another interaction between Chandra and Al, however, had a much greater impact on astronomy. Chandrasekhar had predicted that when electron scattering was the dominant contributor to the stellar opacity the limb intensity would show linear polarization reaching 11% for pure electron scattering. Al set out to measure this polarization in eclipsing binary systems. He found polarization, but it did not change with binary phase. Indeed many early type stars showed polarization in the several percent range. As the data collected, it became clear that the polarization was produced in the interstellar medium. In 1949, in back-to-back papers in Science, Al Hiltner and John Hall announced the discovery of interstellar polarization. Interstellar polarization gave the first evidence for galactic magnetic fields and a powerful diagnostic on the nature of interstellar grains.
Over the years Al published over 200 papers in scientific journals. While he continued measurements of polarization, photometry and spectral classification of early type stars he was most interested in binary stars. He made valuable contributions to our understanding of Wolf-Rayet binaries, and after the discovery of x-ray binaries he turned his attention to the study of the optical radiation from these x-ray sources. He enjoyed sharing this research with students and young astronomers and imparting to them the enthusiasm that he himself had for scientific inquiry.
As Al progressed through the ranks, from Instructor to Professor at the University of Chicago, he took on increased responsibilities as both in instrument innovator and policy maker. Starting in 1959 and continuing until his departure from Yerkes Observatory in 1971, he was the University of Chicago?s representative on the Board of Directors of AURA. The facilities which now cover the summit of Kitt Peak owe much to the efforts of the early Board members. He played an important role in the development of the Cerro Tololo Interamerican Observatory in Chile. In 1966 CTIO was without a director and Al served as one of the interim directors until the appointment of Victor Blanco in 1967. He also served as President of AURA from 1968 through 1971. His departure from the Board following his term of office was the result of his departure from Yerkes Observatory after 27 years of productive and diverse activity.
Al returned to the place where he had received his training in 1970 to become chairman of the Department of Astronomy at the University of Michigan. His ability to imagine and to make things happen led to a fruitful collaborative agreement between Michigan, Dartmouth and MIT. The MDM consortium started with the move of the Michigan 1.3 meter telescope and later the construction of a 2.4 meter telescope, which was designed by Al and now bears his name.
When Al retired from the University of Michigan in 1985 it was not just be a professor emeritus but rather to take on a new challenge. The Carnegie Institution had embarked on a collaborative effort to produce a very large southern hemisphere telescope. In 1986 Al joined the staff of the Carnegie Observatories to become the Project Manager for the Magellan Telescope Project a program to build an 8-meter telescope to be placed in Chile.
One of the characteristics which his younger colleagues have remarked on was his ability to keep up-to-date, to keep learning, and as such it was not at all remarkable that he had been chosen to head the Magellan Project. This characteristic, however, applied to his personal as well as his professional life. During his years at Yerkes Observatory he enjoyed sailing on Lake Geneva and canoeing with the family in northern Wisconsin in spite of the fact that he had not learned to swim in his youth. He did learn to swim, however, at the age of 64 and took great pride in that accomplishment, which he enjoyed the rest of his life.
For the last ten years of his life Al had been under the care of a cardiologist for a deteriorating heart condition. He had resisted surgery until finally in September of 1991 he decided to risk surgery as a last resort. They were unable to get his heart to beat on its own after removing the support system. He is survived by his wife Ruth, and four children, two sons and two daughters.
Al was a great success as a scientist, a teacher, a builder, and a scientific leader, and went out of his way to instill these attributes in the younger astronomers who had the opportunity to work with him.

Biography
William A. Hiltner was born in North Creek, Ohio on August 27, 1914. He received a B.S. in math and physics from the University of Toledo in 1937. Subsequently, he earned a M.S. degree in 1938 and a Ph.D. in astronomy in 1942 from the University of Michigan. In 1967 he was awarded an honorary degree from the University of Toledo. From 1942 through 1970, Hiltner was on the faculty at the University of Chicago and during parts of his tenure there was the director of Yerkes Observatory (1963-1966) and acting director of Cerro Tololo InterAmerican Observatory (1966-1967) in Chile. Hiltner's tenure at the University of Michigan began in 1970 when he was appointed chairman of the Department of Astronomy and director of University Observatories. He was chairman of the department until 1983 and retired from the University of Michigan in 1985.
The focus of Hiltner's research was work on photoelectric photometry which led to the discovery of interstellar polarization. Additionally, his work enabled the identification of a number of X-ray sources and provided the first evidence for a magnetic field pervading the Milky Way galaxy. To help with his ground breaking research, Hiltner designed and developed new instrumental techniques and applications. During his tenure at the University of Michigan, Hiltner was responsible for the establishment of the McGraw-Hill Observatory on Kitt Peak in Arizona which involved the moving of a 1.3-meter reflector from Dexter, Michigan to Arizona and the construction and implementation of a 2.4-meter telescope, which has now been named in his honor. During his lifetime, Hiltner produced more than 200 research papers, book chapters, and other scientific contributions (a partial bibliography may be found in the topical files under "Letters of Merit").
Hiltner was a member of the International Astronomical Union; the American Astronomical Society; the Astronomical Society of the Pacific; and, the Optical Society of America. He was also a founder and extremely active member of the Associated Universities for Research in Astronomy (AURA) which runs the National Optical Astronomy Observatories in Arizona and Chile.
William A. Hiltner died September 30, 1991.

Phillip Achenbach and wife Married June 16, 1837, at Orangeville, Pa. Lived at this place two years, then removed to a farm at Summerhill and remained here 16 years, when they moved on a farm near Espy and lived there a number of years. Their third home was on a farm at Milton, where they resided about 20 years. Then we find them at Freeport, Illinois, and their home has been here for the last 18 years. Mr. Achenbach died September 10, 1895, leaving his widow surviving him.

David Achenbach and Judith Hayman were married February 28, 1833, at Orangeville, Pa. Mr. Achenbach was at the time engaged as distiller for Rickitts & Bro. at Orangeville for a number of years and then moved to Hayman?s mill near Rohrsburg and entered into partnership with James Hayman in the distilling business for several years. In 1839, or thereabout, he moved on a farm owned by his father, John Achenbach, and farmed for him until about the year 1859, when he bought the east half of the farm known as the Geo. Rutter farm and continued to farm the same place nearly 30 years, until his death. After which his widow lived on the same place until she was called home several years later. His family consisted of five sons and four daughters, of which six are living.

520 From: Sarah Jane Kline Houtz, Family Memorial of John Phillip Achenbach and Descendants in the United States.
The subject of this sketch, Isaiah Thomas Moore Achenbach, who died at his residence in Riverview Park, Washington, Kan., at 9:30 am, Friday, May 25, 1888, was born at Orangeville, Columbia County, Penn., July 22 1831, and was therefore 56 years 10 months and three days old at the time of his decease. He was baptized in infancy and had the advantage of Christian training and such educational facilities as the times afforded. His earlier years were passed without special incident and at twenty-two he married Miss Susanna Seidle. Death claimed her three months afterward and Mr. Achenbach shortly removed to Ohio, and from there to Indiana, where he engaged in the milling business near Union City, and two years after the death of his first wife he married in Ohio, Miss Louisa Bowersox, who survives him. Four children were born to them, all of whom are living. In 1867 Mr. Achenbach removed his family to Illinois and from there brought them to Kansas in 1869, locating on the splendid farm west of that city, where he has lived and labored to successfully build up a pleasant home, and where his family still reside. By his persevering energy, grit, thrift and fair dealing he prospered and rapidly became known as one of the most solid and substantial farmers and businessmen of the county. His sterling integrity and well known character for uprightness and honesty recommended his as the proper man to place in charge of the county finances. Mr. Achenbach, although a staunch Democrat, was accordingly put forward in 1874 and although the county was overwhelmingly Republican, he was triumphantly elected. He was again elected in 1867 as a further mark of the people?s confidence and a reward for his faithful and honest performance of his duty. After his retirement from office he again turned his attention to farming and stock raising, doing much in the last named industry to advance and improve that branch by his liberal expenditure of money in the introduction of blooded cattle. He always managed his own affairs well and successfully and found time and gave generously toward every worthy project calculated to benefit and advance the interests of his town and county. His enterprise, good, sound, common sense, judgement and liberal financial support were eagerly sought and promptly and cheerfully given to every plausible scheme for public improvement and progress. His vigorous and enthusiastic faith in Washington placed him in the front rank of energetic workers for her prosperity and we but voice the heartfelt sentiment of all when we say that his loss is not his family?s alone, but the entire community?s. He lived respected, honored and beloved by all and died in the joyous hope of glorious immortality. The funeral, which took place Sunday, was under Mason auspices, after the sermon by Rev. Hageman at the residence, and was the most largely attended that ever took place in Washington, thus betokening the universal esteem in which he was held by all.

Page 214 DORSET Of MONMOUTH COUNTY
JAMES DORSET came from Bermuda to New Jersey. He located in the vicinity of Middletown, where he was granted by the Proprietors, June 20, 1677, two hundred and two acres of land [elsewhere, May, 1677].
1676, November. He received an additional two hundred and forty acres, and finally, March 26, 1690, one hundred acres, both in Middletown. He may have been rich in lands, but in purse he was poor.
In 1687, when called upon for the Quit rent of his two hundred and two acres, amounting to £8-8-4, he paid nothing and the tax collector was constrained to enter "Received Nothing he is poor." His joint properties, amounting to five hundred acres, lay about four miles west of Middletown, and two miles south east of Keyport.
1688. James Dorset was Constable.
A little north of the center of what was his property, stood the Bethany Meeting House for many years. It has however since been moved a mile and more toward Keyport. The first dwelling on this property was built directly south of the old Dorset burying-ground; the later structure stands today, with the graveyard lying about one hundred yards to the south west of it, and on the east side of the road running south from the site of the Old Bethany Meeting House.
The origin of James Dorset is unknown. He died in or prior to 1721.
It is thought he married after his arrival in this vicinity.

526 Gen. of Meyer Family states he was still living in 1890.
from The Genealogy of the Meyer Family by Henry Meyer, 1890.
Frederick C. (Christopher, Christopher, Gr. Meyer)
was born Feb. 17, 1810; married to Mary Ann Boyer; both
living at this date Jan., 1890. Frederick is Musical Director
of the Musical College at Freeburg, an institution of deserved
popularity in Central Pennsylvania, and of which he is the
originator. He is a very intelligent and energetic man, pos-
sessing very decided convictions in religion and politics, and
his strong traits of character have left their impress upon the
history of his native town and county. Formerly, for a period
of forty-six years, he had been associated with his brother
George C. in the mercantile business ; at present his attention
is devoted almost exclusively to his Musical College. He
has also been proprietor of a hotel for many years. Of the
Meyer history, Frederick is full to overflowing, and to him
the writer is indebted for much valuable information on the
subject and for kind and courteous treatment when visiting
him in 1883. Thus it will be found that his name occurs on
many pages throughout this work in connection with histori-
cal facts. He is a member of the German Keformed Church
Politically he is a Republican, and he cannot understand
how any Meyer could be a Democrat! Frederick can look
with justifiable pride and satisfaction upon a numerous train
of descendants, not one of whom would cause a fond parent's
cheek to crimson with shame.

527 Genealogy of the Meyer Family (1890)

Catharine (daughter of Jacob, son of Gr. Meyer) was the oldest of the family, but the dates of birth or death were not discovered. She was married to John Meyer, and the couple moved on a tract of land in Brushvalley (Centre County. Pa.), which was purchased subsequently by grand- father Henry Meyer — brother-in-law of John. The latter was one of the first settlers in the Valley, and may have located in it as earl} - as the year 1792. He cleared consider- able land, and put up the first buildings on the tract near Elk Creek, and no doubt planted the apple trees there, some of which still (1889) remain — one measuring eleven and a half feet in circumference. John Meyer had erected an oil mill at Oil Gap, some distance east of Woodward, Pa., before he came to Brushvalley, and grandfather Henry Meyer had done the mill-wright work on it. From an old receipt in my possession, I find he sold his interest in his land to grand- father Henry Meyer, May 2, 1797, and moved to Kentucky,, where he erected a distillery. Very little was heard about the family afterwards. His brother Philip, his son-in-law Jacob Kreiger and Tobias Pickle moved to Kentucky at the same time, thence some, if not all, to Ohio. Father used to say that this John Meyer was a cousin of his father; but others denied it. I could not find the link of the relationship. He was a red-headed, raw-boned man, large stature; and had been a soldier in the Revolutionary War. He was in the Battle of Brandywine, and was a brave soldier, but when the retreat began he soon outstripped all the rest running.
I have not a list of John's children, except a partial one furnished me by John P. Meyer, of Felicity, 0. He states that a Meyer family, who were cousins of his father (Philip) coming from the same place (Brushvalley), located near where his father settled. He names three brothers, viz.:John, George and Jacob ; and thinks there were three or four sisters, and mentions Susan and Mary. No doubt these were John's children. Philip could not have had any other cousins in that section. See page 43.

536 Genealogy of the Meyer Family by Henry Meyer

Henry (Henry, Jacob, Gr. Meyer), my father, was born Sept. 2, 1795; died Dec. 28, 1881; lies buried in the Lutheran and Reformed cemetery, Rebersburg, Pa., between his step-mother Margaret, and his brother Jacob. He was born near Straubsburg, Northumberland county, now Snyder county, and was two or three years old when the family moved into Brushvalley. He remained while in his minority upon his father’s farm part of which he subsequently purchased and lived upon during the rest of his life. He learned the Mill-wright trade with his father and followed that occupation many years. Father's school privileges had been limited: consisting of a few weeks attendance during the Winter at schools which were deficient in everything except an assortment of rods to lick the scholars. However, being quite fond of reading he acquired considerable knowledge on various subjects. He read both English and German works and wrote both languages. On scriptural subjects he was well informed, being a constant reader of the Bible and other- religious works. He was a member of the Evangelical church from 1830 until his decease, and did much towards the support of the Gospel, and nearly all his children belong to the same denomination. During the late war father was a War Democrat and advocated the thorough suppression of the Rebellion; but in later years he never took any decided stand in politics. August 3, 1828, he was commissioned captain of the 6th Co. 12th Regt. Pa., Militia — which I believe comprised all of his military career. Father was economical but not penurious; very plain in dress and opposed to all forms of ostentation. He disliked exceedingly to see people live beyond their means. He was quite a large man, being about six feet tall and weighing about two hundred pounds; his complexion was fair, eyes blue and hair 'flax color’. Father was married to Hannah, daughter of Nicholas Bierly, Brushvalley, Pa. She was born May 26, 1800. and is at this date — January, 1890, — enjoying good health, and is still of a sound mind — in her ninetieth year.

John George (son of Jacob, son of Gr. Meyer) came in possession of his father's farm — the old homestead, near Freeburg, Pa., which he continued to cultivate until his death. The date of his birth I have not been able to ascertain, but it is said he was next to and older than his brother Henry, and is placed in that order on the list. He died about the year 1810, says Fred. C. Meyer, of Freeburg, Pa. His disease was consumption, caused by a cherry-seed, which accidentally lodged in his lungs. He died about a year after the occurrence of the accident. George was first married to Elizabeth Buchtel, daughter of John Buchtel. She was a sister of George's brother Michael's wife Agnes, and, also, a sister of Nicholas Bierly's wife Lucy.
