GENEALOGY OF THE MORR FAMILY. by Calvin Moyer page 71
CHAPTER IV.
ANNA MARGARET MORR AND DESCENDANTS.
Anna Margaret Morr was the second daughter of Andrew Morr. She was born August 20, 1759; died near Petersburg, Centre county, Pa., March 12, 1829. She was married to Philip Meyer* about the year 1780. He was born November 11, 1755; died near Petersburg, Pa., April 27, 1831. The respective family histories of the Morrs and Meyers have been running in parallel streams for over a century with frequent intermingling of their branches all along their course. The first marriage is the one mentioned above, but as stated in the opening chapter of the volume, there was a John Morr who married Elizabeth Meyer, daughter of John Meyer, at an earlier period. Some suppose that this John Morr and Andrew Morr, Anna Margaret's father were brothers. Anna Margaret lies buried by the side of her husband in the Lutheran and Reformed Cemetery at Petersburg. A brown sandstone marks their resting place. The writer visited their graves at twilight on September 7, 1892. A number of the Meyer family lie buried here, but none of Anna Margaret's descendants. The descendants of this family are numerous and are all in the Western States, principally in Ohio and Iowa.
**Philip Meyer was heavy built, muscular and active, but not as tall as his brothers. He was a noted wrestler in his day, and was not averse to contests of a more serious nature, as his numerous experiments in that line seem to demonstrate. But, that was in an age when physical power was at a premium. The man who could leap the greatest distance, could kick the highest and hit the harest blows was a hero and received the applause of society. There was a vast amount of hard work to do in those pioneer days, and for want of labor-saving machinery, it had to be accomplished by sheer physical force. Hence, any exercise which tended to muscular development, or exhibited physical vigor in its greatest perfection, was cherished and applauded. Philip served in the Revolutionary War. being a member of Capt. Ben Weiser"s Company. Adam Schaffer was Lieutenant of the Company, and subsequently became captain by promotion. On his return from the army. Philip settled down to domestic life near Freeburg for a number of years, thence moved to Brush Valley, Centre county, Pa. This was about the year 1802. He located on a tract of land consisting of 309 acres, about a mile east of the present post village of Wolf’s Store, and five miles south of the headwaters of Elk Creek. This tract he bought from John George and Philip Morr, executors of their father’s estate, May 1, 1816. Mr. Meyer was of a liberal disposition, kind to his family generous to his neighbors, and a useful citizen in his township. For many years, he was Supervisor of Miles township, serving in that capacity in 1815, when the public road from Wolf's Store across the mountains to Penn'a Valley was made. He was a consistent member of the Reformed Church, and embraced religion in his declining days, and died a happy Christian. — Meyer Genealogy. Vol. I, Pages 42, 43.

Plot Lawn-17, Section 33, #14; Shares marker w/ James Fletcher (1840-1917)

Ida was the daughter of Ohio natives Isaac Moyer (born circa 1826) and Elizabeth Ann "Betty" (Leach) Moyer (born circa 1828.) She may have been born in Clermont County, Ohio, where the family lived at the time of another child's November 1857 birth and at the time of the 1860 U. S. Census enumeration. By the time of the 1870 U. S. Census the Moyer family had moved to Iowa.

James Fletcher and Ida Moyer married on October 4, 1876, in Scott County, Iowa and lived in Iowa at the time of the 1880 and 1900 U. S. Census enumerations. By the 1910 U. S. Census the family had moved to Spokane, Washington, where Ida remained after her husband's death.

The Fletchers had (at least) these children:
* Archie Moses Fletcher (born 1878,)
* Clyde William Fletcher (1880-1952,)
* Ethel M. Fletcher Ryan (1884-1975,) and
* Alma Fletcher Cotrell (1887-?)
