Served in the Navy in WWI from 5/7/1917 through 12/1/1917. I'm not sure if this record is in error or if he was discharged early for injury or another reason. His rank was oiler.

He married my great-aunt, Lydia Meyle, in 1917. They had two children, Oliver (Jr.) and Lydia. Oliver worked for the Independent Pier Co. of Philadelphia in several capacities throughout the years.

The IPC was a shipping company that ran tugboats on the Delaware river. It was founded in 1895 by my great-grandfather, Emil Meyle(Oliver's father-in-law). It was operated originally under the name of E. Meyle. In 1909 the company was incorporated as The Independent Pier Company.
