Christian H. Myers at the age of about eight years emigrated with his father from Lancaster County, pennsylvania, to Wayne County, Ohio. While a young man worked at the cooper's and tailor's trade. After his marriage he lived on a five-acre tract of ground in Paradise, Wayne County, Ohio, and followed buying and shipping stock principally to Allegheny, Pa. His efforts were sometimes successful, but often unsuccessful,
meeting with frequent losses in the handling of stock, and,
being like most of his kin, modest and non-aggressive, and having a large family to support, he accumulated but very little money; but, like the rest of the Myers family, he was a scrupulously honest, honorable and respected citizen.
In 1885 he emigrated to Portland, Oregon, where he engaged in the fish and poultry business in a small way, and died of typhoid fever in Portland, Oregon, May 29, 1888, and is buried in Lone Fir Cemetery, Portland. He did all in his power to have his children get an education, and lived, taught and practiced good principles.
