| 3216 | John was a miller by trade and operated the "Meyer Mill" one mile east of Coburn, PA where his seven children were born. About the year 1858 he exchanged the mill property for a farm in Brush Valley one mile west of Rebersburg near Hebler's Mill where he erected a substantial brick farm house. Soon after his wife's death he moved to Aaronsburg, where, with his daughter, Sarah he lived a retired life, until his death. He was a consistent member of the Reformed Church as were his ancestors. In politics he was a staunch democrat. | Meyer, John (I1128)
|
| 3217 | John was a son of Benjamin and Margaret. JOHN H. ROUSH, a prominent agriculturist, residing near Madisonburg, Centre county, is one of the progressive, wide-awake men who naturally take the lead in any calling which they may undertake. He was born March 22, 1850, on the same farm which he now owns and occu- pies, and was the eldest child of Benjamin and Margaret (Hoy) Roush. The estate was formerly known as the "John Hoy homestead," and the Hoy family were from early times identified with that locality. The neighboring district school was called Hoy's school, and there Mr. Roush re- ceived his education, one of his first teachers be- ing John Houtz. Farm life presents many advantages to a youth, healthful work, relieved by pleasant out- door recreation, forming wholesome habits and developing and strengthening the physique. There was always plenty to do at home, and Mr. Roush's parents being well-to-do, he never " worked out " for other farmers. As he became familiar with the management of the farm he as- sumed much of the responsibility, and as a young man he gave evidence of the qualities which have contributed to his later success. In January, 1873, he was married at Rebersburg to Miss Margaret J. Shaffer, daughter of John and Fran- ces (Schmeltzer) Shaffer. She was a native of Sugar Valley, Clinton county, born in December, 1850, but her early life was mainly spent in Brush Valley. After his marriage Mr. Roush lo- cated in Sugar Valley, renting the farm upon which Mrs. Roush was born. He remained there until the spring of 1876, when he removed to a farm in Spring township, Centre county, near Axeinann. In the spring of 1888, he left this place to take his permanent residence in Gregg township, at the old homestead, which he has greatly improved in various ways. The es- tate contains 1 82 acres of choice land, and is con- sidered one of the best farms in the locality. Mr. and Mrs. Roush have three daughters: (i) Carrie E. married A. J. Hazel, of Madison- burg, and has two children; (2) Minnie E. and (3) Frances E., are at home. The family holds a leading place in the social life of the com- munity. Mr. Roush is a member of the Re- formed Church, in which he has served as dea- con, and Mrs. Roush is a Lutheran in faith. Politically he is a stanch and steadfast Democrat, and has much influence in the local organization. While living in Spring township he held office as school director and assistant assessor, and at present he is the director of the " Hoy district school," which he attended in boyhood. He is a member of the Grange, and of the I. O. O. F. Lodge No. 955, at Millheim, and is a charter member of Madison Castle No. 360, K. G. E.,. at Madisonburg. | Roush, Benjamin (I1016)

| 3239 | Later moved to Stephenson County, Illinois. Then moved to Hiawatha, Kansas. from The Genealogy of the Meyer Family by Henry Meyer, 1890. Samuel (Michael, Christopher, Gr. Meyer) was born near Campbellstown, Pa., Jan. 9, 1810; he was married to Elizabeth Behler, Sept. 13, 1832. His wife was born Jan. 8 1815; died May 21, 1867. Samuel moved from Dauphin County, Pa., in the Spring of 1833, upon a farm at Spring Bank, Brushvalley, Centre Co., Pa., and there began house- keeping. He lived in the Valley for many years, and there all his children seventeen in number were born. Thence he moved to Hiawatha, Kansas, but in what year I have not ascertained. Samuel is remembered by his neighbors in Brushvalley as a consistent member of the German Reformed Church; and as a Republican in politics. No doubt he still adheres to his old convictions. March 11, 1884, I received a letter from him, enclosing a list of his children. Mr. Meyer had resided in Stephenson County. III., before moving to Kansas. | Moyer, Samuel I. (I701)

Chicago: J. H. Beers, 1898. page 359 COMMEMORATIVE BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD. D. D. ROYER. The fertile farms of Brush Valley, Centre county, have attracted a superior class of agriculturists, men who bring to their work scientific knowledge, and whose progressive ideas are demonstrated in substantial improvements not to be excelled elsewhere. Among the most successful and progressive of these is the subject of this sketch, who resides near Rebersburg. Mr. Royer is a grandson of Christopher Royer, who settled in Brush Valley in 1807, and a son of Jefferson Royer, a native of Miles township, Centre county, born August 28, 1808, near Rockville. Jefferson Royer became a successful farmer, having been reared to that occupation by his father, who owned a large amount of land, which he cultivated in addition to his work as a miller and distiller. The subscription schools of that day were far from good, and the one south of Rebersburg, at which Jefferson Royer attended as a boy, was no better than others of its class. One teacher named Parkinson had a peculiar and unpleasant little habit of calling his pupils "d----d blockheads." A neighboring barn caught fire one day, and the scholars all ran out without asking permission. When they returned the teacher had disappeared, and he was never heard of afterward. Jefferson Royer grew to manhood at his father's home, much of his time being spent in driving a team and taking products to market. He and his brother Daniel formed a partnership in farming, and he thus managed to save some money of his own. On November 20, 1834, he was married, in Brush Valley, to Hannah Gramley, a native of Miles township, Centre county, born July 17, 1815, a daughter of George and Polly (Walburn) Gramley. He began housekeeping at the Royer homestead, but later bought a farm in Miles township which he improved and sold. He then rented a farm in Clinton county, and after a time purchased one there, but afterward he bought a new tract of land, heavily timbered, near Zion, Centre county, and lived there fifteen years, improving the place in every way. In 1869 he moved to Brush Valley, where he had bought a farm the year before, and at this place he remained until his retirement from active business, in his sixty-fifth year, when he built a home in Rebersburg in which to spend his declining years. He was fond of home, and, while he had a roving disposition, as shown by his frequent changes, he always wanted his family to accompany him. His wife died May 11, 1890, and he breathed his last November 26, 1895, both being interred at Rebersburg. He was five feet, ten inches in height, well built, and very hardy and robust, retaining his faculties fully up to his death, which occurred when he was aged eighty-seven years. In business he was successful, and his high character won him the esteem of all classes. As a Whig and later as a Republican, he was a regular voter and took keen interest in the success of his party. He served several terms as supervisor in Clinton county. He was also much interested in religious matters, and he and his wife were both members of the Evangelical Association, in which he held various offices, and was a class leader for thirty years. Jefferson Royer had five children, whose names with dates of birth are as follows: Magdalene, October 13, 1835, died in infancy; Jonathan, October 16, 1836, resides near Zion, Centre county; J. M., February 3, 1830, who served in Company G, 148th P. V. I., during the Civil war, died at the age of forty-seven at St. Louis, Mo., where his home was; he was married. D. D., August 15, 1846, is mentioned more fully below; and Chesty A., July 8, 1850, is now Mrs. Perry Geutzel, of Nittany Valley. D. D. Royer was born in Clinton county, one mile east of Clintondale, and attended his first school in Clinton county with Benjamin Winters as teacher. The schools of that time were inferior to those of the present, but such as they were Mr. Royer could not take full advantage of them. For two winters in succession he attended only twenty-three days in each. He was the oldest at home much of the time, and clearing land and other work interfered with his education. His own experience makes him a warm friend of better schools, in which every child may find thorough instruction. Mr. Royer was always at home except for a day now and then in harvest time when he could earn fifty cents for spending money, and after he came of age he worked for his father for ten years. On June 21, 1877, he was married to Miss Mary A. Roush, who was born in Gregg township, Centre county, February 1855, a daughter of Benjamin and Margaret (Hoy) Roush. Her father, who is a farmer and shoemaker by occupation, lives near Madisonburg, and is a leading citizen of that locality. Three children were born of this union: Edwin L., Kline H. and Anneata H., who are all at home. At his marriage, Mr. Royer located on his father's farm, which he now owns. The farm is a valuable one, comprising 256 acres and including a tenant farm with separate residence and other improvements. In 1892 the farm was divided and new buildings erected by Mr. Royer, which are among the most complete and modern farm structures in Centre county. Mrs. Royer owns a one-half interest in 170 acres in Spring township, Centre county. Mr. Royer takes great interest in the issues of the day, and in State and National affairs always votes the Republican ticket. He is, however, no office seeker, having always had plenty of his own business to occupy his time. He attends and contributes to the Evangelical Association. He is a member of the Grange, and can always be relied upon to assist in any beneficial movement in his locality. 1850 Porter Township, Clinton County census - Jefferson Royer, 39 Hannah Royer, 34 Johnathan Royer, 13 Isaac Royer, 11 Danl.

| 3250 | Lived at Morrisdale, PA. On the 3d inst., near Woodbury, Bedford County, Pa., Mr. Samuel Carper, formerly of Lebanon County, aged 83 years, 2 months and 27 days. Brother Carper was born in Lebanon County, May 7th, 1778. At an early age he was taken into full communion with the German Reformed church in Lebanon, by Father Lupp, who was pastor of the church at that place. Soon after his confirmation he was married to Miss Christiana Moyer, and in 1830 he moved from Lebanon County to Morrison's Cove, where he lived until his death. Brother Carper was one of the oldest and most influential members of the German Reformed Church, having been more than sixty years a regular member. He was blessed with much of this world's goods and whenever any object of benevolence claimed attention he was always willing and ready to do his part for the furtherance of the kingdom of Christ. He felt for a week or more before his decease that his earthly pilgrimage was rapidly drawing to a close; death therefore did not come in an hour unexpected to him. Ever since we knew him, which has been for many years, he always led a strictly Christian life and we have reason to believe that he is now reaping the fruits of his labors in eternal rest above. He lived long in the land which the Almighty gave him, and died in a good old age, on the 3d inst. His remains were followed to the grave by a large number of relations and friends, who thus paid to him their last tribute of respect.
