According to the History of Elkhart County, Indiana, cited below,
"After marriage Mr. and Mrs. Myers [Anna Mary's parents] came to this country and settled in Michigan, where they lived at Hillsdale. Shortly after the birth of their daughter Mary they moved to Elkhart county, settling in Goshen. Since that time Mr. Myers has been a resident of this county. He was the father of six children, as follows:
* John G. L. Myers, M. D., who is well known in Indiana;
* George F., a resident of Indiana;
* Anna L., wife of Frank Plank of New Paris, Elkhart county;
* Margarethe Wilhelmina Carolina "Maggie" Myers Nold, the wife of Jacob Nold, of Nappanee;
* Andrew, residing in Chicago, and
* Mrs. Bechtel.
"The latter was a child when she came to this county and has passed nearly all her life in Goshen. She taught in the schools of that town for some time and is a woman of fine character and much learning. After marriage she and her husband made their home in Goshen until 1884, when they moved to Nappanee and there resided until the death of Mr. Bechtel, when she returned with her children to Goshen. The children are named as follows:
* Daniel M., born November 12, 1878, attending school;
* Esther, born December 18, 1880;
