I have several photographs and other items belonging to the MEYERS and LOVE Family of Ohio including the following items:

• Framed Photograph of Ellen LOVE MEYERS b. 21 May 1840 and William Henry MEYERS b. 3 Aug 1860, taken at the J. P. Morrow Studio in Greenfield, OH
• Unframed photograph - same as above
• Tin Type photograph of W. H. MEYERS taken when he was a boy of about 8 - 10 years
• Tin Type photograph of W. H. MEYERS taken when he was a boy of about 10-12 years
• 1/2 Union Case with daguerreotype of W. H. MEYERS then he was a baby sitting on his father's (John MEYERS) lap, less than one year old, identified as the grandfather of Clarence William KERR
• State of Ohio Executive Declaration to John MEYERS dated 4 Mar 1863 related to the Squirrel Hunters and their activities on the southern border to fight off pirates. Signed by the Governor of Ohio
• A letter dated 10 Apr 1907 in Greenfield, OH by John MEYERS detailing his life
• Typed obituary for John MEYERS to be published in the Greenfield Republican on his death, 15 Aug 1929
• Declaration of Intention to seek citizenship for John MEYERS dated 5 Dec 1863

Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding the family:

Ellen LOVE was b. 1840 and married John MEYERS (1834-1929) on 11 Oct 1859 in Highland County, OH and they had one son, William H. MEYERS (1860-1913). The family was living in Fairfield, OH in 1880. Ellen died in 1918 and is buried in the Greenfield Cemetery in Greenfield, OH.

William H. MEYERS was b. 1860 in Missouri to parents John MEYERS (1834-1929) and Ellen LOVE (1840-1918). William married Mary Elizabeth “Lizzie” ADAMS (1867-1957) on 19 Oct 1887 in Highland Co., OH and they had two children including Alice L. MEYERS (b. 1894) and Geneveve or Genevive or Genevieve MEYERS (b. 1899). William died in 1913 and is buried in the Greenfield Cemetery in Greenfield, OH.

William’s father John MEYERS was b. 1834 in France and died in 1929 and is also buried in the Greenfield Cemetery in Greenfield, OH.

I am hoping to get these treasures to a family member and would appreciate you contacting me if you are a member of this family or know someone who might be.

Thanks,
Shelley
