BIRTH: first white child born in town of Spring Grove, Green County, Wisconsin. From Commemorative Biographical Record of the Counties of Rock, Green, Grant, Iowa and Lafayette Wisconsin, publ. 1901 - page 489 JOHN MYERS, a prosperous farmer of Green county, Wis., comes of German ancestry, and was among the earliest settlers of this county. Born March 22, 1839, he was the first white child born in the town of Spring Grove, and is the son of Samuel and Sarah (KLINE) MYERS. Henry MYERS, his grandfather, came from Germany when a boy and settled in Pennsylvania about 1775. John MYERS was born March 22, 1839, and was married to Miss Fannie H. BUSSEY, Spring Grove, March 19, 1863. Mrs. MYERS was born of English ancestry, April 26, 1844, a daughter of G. W. BUSSEY, of Juda, Green county, who stood high among the early settlers of the county. She was reared on a farm, and educated in the common schools. To the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. MYERS the following children were born: Laura J., born Aug. 28, 1864, married Samuel HOLMES, of the town of Jefferson, Nov. 2, 1887, and is the mother of two sons, Ransom and Grover; Elmer W., born April 17, 1867, married Miss Anna WIGGINS, of Green county, Oct. 3, 1887, and is the father of two sons, Floyd D. and Alvin R.; John D., born May 1, 1871, is a farmer, and married Miss Ida DOUGLAS, by whom he has two sons, Herbert and Glenn; Emily, born Aug. 17, 1872, married Frederick Atkinson, of Decatur, and is the mother of one daughter, Vera. Mr. MYERS was educated in the public schools, which were very poor at that time, and began life with no resources except his own strength and courage, but has been greatly blessed in the years that have come and gone since he began the battle of life. For eight years, when a young man, he taught school in his native county. The farm of 214 acres on which he lives is one of the fine country homes of the county, and he has a fine residence property in Brodhead, where he lived about four years, and where he is a stockholder in the Green County bank. Mr. MYERS is a stanch Republican, and cast his first vote for Lincoln in 1860, and while living in Spring Grove township he served as town clerk. Successful in all his undertakings, he attributes his success largely to hard work and good management. Never uniting with any church, he holds to honesty and right living as fundamental to any true character. In every relation of life he is highly spoken of by those who know him best. |
