From A history of the Church of Brethren in Middle Pennsylvania
MYERS, Reuben T., the ninth of ten children of Samuel and Elizabeth (nee Shellenberger) Myers, members of the Church of the Brethren, was born near McVeytown, (Pa.), August 17, 1839. He made good use of a common school education open to him, but made his living first at farming and later carpentering.
He was united in marriage with Elizabeth, daughter of Daniel and Susannah (nee Rothrock) Bashoar, members of the Church of the Brethren, living in Dry Valley. To them were born seven children, Ida, Calvin, Annie, Milton, Samuel, Edward, and Edna. The wife died June 23, 1873. Later, he was united in marriage with Phianna, daughter of Samuel and Anna (nee Leiter) Bashoar, members of the Church of the Breth-
ren, on September 24, 1874. To them were born six children, — Banks A., Adda M., Howard E., Mary E., Walter A., and Nora E.
When about seventeen years of age, he united with the Church of the Brethren, in the Spring Run congregation, Joseph R. Hanawalt administering baptism. Here he was called to the deacon's office, in 1867; to the ministry, October 20, 1887, and, through the laying on of hands by George S. Myers and Walter S. Long, he was ordained, May 30, 1900. He represented his congregation at District Meeting eight times, and twice at General Conference. He was active in the Sunday-school when it first began, and served a number of times as superintendent. The greater part of his service has been given to the Spring Run congregation, where, in conjunction with John C. Swigart, he has the oversight of the church. Address, McVeytown, (Pa.).
