MRS. MARY M. MYERS
Her Death Occurred Last Night at the home of Her Daughter Mrs. Minnie Ryan last night at eight o'clock, Mrs. Mary M. Myers died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Minnie Ryan, of west main street. Mrs. Myers had been ill for
some time and her death was not unexpected. Tomorrow morning at half past eight o'clock Rev. S.W. Goss will conduct a short service at the home after which the
body will be taken to the Myers cemetery in Fountain county for interment.
Mary M. Grimes was born May 18, 1812 in Davidson county, N.C. and was married there on October 29, 1829 to Noah Myers. Their wedding journey was by wagon through the then trackless wilderness to Fountain county, Indiana, where they arrived after six weeks time. They settled in Fountain county and there resided for thirty-two years when they removed to Rockville where Mr. Myers died January 31, 1882. A few weeks later Mrs. Myers home burned and she came to Crawfordsville to reside with Mrs. Ryan. Most of her children were then residents of Crawfordsville and she continued to live here the balance of her days. Mrs. Myers was the mother of eight children, four of whom are still live. They are: Mrs. Ryan, Charles Myers, George Myers, and Eli Myers. The late T.N.
Myers was also her son. Mrs. Myers was a consistent member of the Lutheran church and her life was passed in good works. Whenever she resided was loved and esteemed and her memory will ever be a very beautiful one.
