Sam m. (1) Mary Ann Pontius (or Paulus) who died 27 June 1868; he m. (2) Mary Stall, widow of his brother Johannes - she died 9 April 1869; he m. (3) Lydia Horner (her third marriage). As an adult he moved to Summit County, Ohio; as oldest child of Jacob's first wife he may have moved because of a step-mother and her children in Jacob's household. He is named in his father's will. Probably Jacob helped him purchase a farm and he therefore had no further inheritance. Jacob's estate file does show a note from Jacob to Sam, satisfied from the estate. Sam r. at Millheim in present-day Summit County, Ohio, operating a sawmill and clearing and selling farms. His history and that of his wife and family appear in "Sam Myers and Lydia Horner: Their Ancestors and Descendants," by Forrest D. Myers (Harrisburg, PA, 1979). The 21 July 1860 census of Springfield Twp. [Middlebury P. O.], Summit Co., OH lists him with wife Mary (age 50, b. in PA) and children Isaac (age 20, farm laborer), Levi (19), Joel (17), Harriet (13), Louise (11) and Almira (7).
"Sam's background" - added by patfroehlich on 15 Jun 2007: "Eldest of 15 children (3 full siblings; 11 half-siblings). Spoke "Pennsylvania Dutch" (German) exclusively. Purchased farm of 85 acres in 1834 for $400 (deed of 12 Dec 1834) along present day Pressler and Bridger Rds. in Millheim (near Uniontown, OH). Built his log home and ran the sawmill. Enlarged the farm to 168 acres. House he built in 1838 stood for more than 125 years. Also purchased adjoining 59 acres for $1200 in 1846. All that remains of Millheim is the [United Church of Christ, formerly German Reformed] church and cemetery. Married at age 21 to Mary Ann. Second marriage to Mary Stall (widow of his brother, John) in 1868. Marriage to sibling's widow was common then. John and Mary had 11 children. Third wife was Lydia Horner. Sam was 64 when their first child (Albert) was born on 9/1/1870. Final child, Samuel was born 4/16/1872. Sam died on 3/31/1883 at age 78 and is buried in Section 2, Row 18 of the Greenlawn Cemetery at Uniontown. Lydia remained on the farm until her death in 1907."
[Note: Lydia resided with her daughter in Ravenna, OH at the time of her death.] [ For the history of Middlebury, Springfield Twp., see http://www.springfieldtownship.us/history.html.]

The Ohio and Erie Canal, connecting Lake Erie at Cleveland with the Ohio River at Portsmouth, was constructed by the State of Ohio between 1825-32 to provide cheap transportation and to promote economic development. Sam was employed by the contrator of the section in his vicinity to hunt deer and perhaps other game to supply fresh meat to the workers' camp kitchen. Once he injured a buck which then ran toward him. To save himself from the angry buck, Sam quickly slipped behind a small tree as the buck charged, hit the tree and Sam's hand was impaled by an antler. Sam held on until the animal died. The mounted antler hangs in a descendant's home.

Dinah PORTER

[26829]

CA 1750 - ____

Family 1 : Matthew WARDALL
  1. +Thomas WARDALL

INDEX

[26829] Ancestry.com offers: "Porter Name Meaning - English and Scottish: occupational name for the gatekeeper of a walled town or city, or the doorkeeper of a great house, castle, or monastery, from Middle English porter ‘doorkeeper’, ‘gatekeeper’ (Old French portier). The office often came with accommodation, lands, and other privileges for the bearer, and in some cases was hereditary, especially in the case of a royal castle. As an American surname, this has absorbed cognates and equivalents in other European languages, for example German Pförtner (see Fortner) and North German Poertner. English: occupational name for a man who carried loads for a living, especially one who used his own muscle power rather than a beast of burden or a wheeled vehicle. This sense is from Old French porteo(u)r (Late Latin portator, from portare ‘to carry or convey’). Dutch: occupational name from Middle Dutch portere ‘doorkeeper’. Compare 1. Dutch: status name for a freeman (burgher) of a seaport, Middle Dutch portere, modern Dutch poorter."
