I have an ancestor Catherine Myers born 1786 N.C. and married Jacob Martin both died
McMinnville, Warren County, Tennesse and she was aged 104 years. I have worked all day
and enjoyed putting together all your family histories.
Yes, the WWI Draft Reg. Cards of Delaware County, Indiana, has Jacob E. Myers born
2-16-1892 Blackford County, Indiana. Also listed there is his brother William Bazzle
Myers born 9-12-1888 Blackford Co, Indiana.
Then another brother is on WWI Draft Reg. Cards, 1917-1918 Madison County, Indiana, Fred
Cetinas Myers born 12-26-1896 Hartford City, Indiana (is Blackford County) and he states
father born in Ohio and names FATHER - ROBERT MYERS living 1210S. Johnson St. Bluffton,
Indiana (is Wells County). I believe the obit is correct and your Jacob wasn't
adopted after all.
