My Great, great grandfather was Reuben Mearig b. 1820. I am trying to find a living relative who may be able to help me find info on Reuben. I am sure this Robert P. Mearig is from the line of Isreal who I am sure is a younger brother of an Isreal Mearig.
My Findagrave number is #46827672.
The earlier Mearigs were in New Holland but many were in Lititz.
