Julia Morr, seventh child of Andrew Morr, was born July 18, 1770; died November 8, 1821. She was married to John Jacob Meyer, brother of Philip Meyer, who was married to Julia's sister, Anna Margaret, (see page 71.) The family lived near Freeburg, Pa., until 1809, when they moved to Pine Creek Township, Lycoming, now Clinton County, Pa. Julia and her husband are buried in Pine Creek Cemetery, two miles west of Jersey Shore, just south of the West Branch canal. No tombstones mark their resting place (there are stones there now - 2016). The descendants of this couple reside in Clinton and Lycoming counties, Pa., principally.
John Jacob Meyer was a native of Muhlbach, Lancaster, now Lebanon County, Pa., and came with his father, Jacob Meyer, to Penn's township, near Freeburg, Pa., about the year 1771. In 1809, he and his son Jacob visited the vicinity of Jersey Shore, Pa., with a view of purchasing a farm and locating there. Mr. Meyer, supposing that the country south of town abounded in too much water, made his purchase two miles northwest of Jersey Shore. The farm he bought is at present owned by Harrison Kinney, now located in Pine Creek township, Clinton County, Pa. Mr. Meyer's will was probated at Williamsport, Pa., Nov. 18, 1815; the date of its execution is Nov. 5, 1815. The time of his death is not known, but occurred between the two dates just given. In his will, Mr. Meyer signed his name simply Jacob Muyer; the Register when he certified to the paper, wrote it Jacob Myers, which would seem to indicate that it was then already customary with some to write the name Myers.
List of Children: Catherine. Jacob. George. Mary. Barbara. Christina. Samuel. Philip. Elizabeth. Lydia. Julia. John.
Pine Creek Cemetery is an old burying ground about midway between the month of Pine Creek and Jersey Shore. It is the first place where the early settlers of the vicinity buried their dead. [4]
