Biography
Name Elias Myers Gender M (Male) Birth Date 1765 Birth Place Northampton county, Pennsylvania, USA Death Date 13 nov. 1833 (13 Nov 1833) Death Place Daviess County, Indiana, USA Father Elias Myers Mother Elizabeth Gartner Spouse Dorvitha Dolly Fulbright Child Joseph Marion Myers; Dorvitha Fulbright Myers; Elizabeth Myers; William Myers[1]
- The will of Johann Wilhelm Fulbright made on 13 Feb. 1805 and proved in 1808 mentions his daughters as Catherine Bullinger, Elizabeth Killian, Dorritha Moyers, Christina Taylor, Mary Link, and Margaret Crites.
- Dorothea or Dolly married Elias Moyers (Myers), Jr, son of Elias and Elizabeth Moyers. Her birth date is not known, but she was confirmed at St. Paul's Church in present-day Catawba Co., N.C., in August 1776. The couple emigrated to Davis Co., Indiana, in 1816, and some descendants have compiled information on the family in that location, although I have not seen the information. Both Elias and Dorothea died in 1833 in Indiana. The information I have on this family is mainly from the works of Lorena Shell Eaker.[2]

Fulbright-341 and Vollbrecht-13 appear to represent the same person because: Same birth date, same husband, both recorded as mother of a son named Joseph Marion. Death dates differ, but 1833 death date noted in bio for Fulbright-341 agrees with death date recorded for Vollbrecht-13. Vollbrecht-13 is original German spelling, Fulbright-341 is an anglicised variation, and so merge should proceed to Vollbrecht.
