"George Meyer was born in the Village of Vermilion in June 1861, and lived in town until twelve years of age. In 1872 he went with his family to a farm five miles southwest of Vermilion, situated on the Barton Ridge Road. There he grew to manhood, completed his education in the district schools, and kept his home there until about two years ago, when he located on his present place of fourteen acres, comprising a fruit farm also on the Barton ridge road. Since taking possession of this place Mr. Meyer has rebuilt an old house into a modern six-room residence, with cement basement, heated by hot air furnace, and with all the improvements and facilities that make life comfortable. he has good farm buildings and grows large quantities of fruits, including apples, cherries, peaches, and much small fruit. he is a man of good judgement, is a skillful operator in fruit culture, and has a reputation among his neighbors of doing well whatever he undertakes. Mr. Meyer has never married. Mr. George Meyer is a democrat in politics. While always busy with his farm work, he has shown an intelligent and public spirited disposition to help any public improvement in his home community." Taken from: History of Erie County Vol II
