Early Pioneers Samuel Myers and Margaret (Hardin) Myers He was also educated in Maryland. In 1829 he came to Putnam County from Maryland after a failed family business venture in Maryland. Samuel Myers, Sr. married Margaret (Harden/Hardin/Harding) on December 25, 1833; they were the first white people to be married in Putnam Co., Ohio. Two days later on the 27th Margaret went to keeping house on the Auglaize River, at the lower end of what was then known as the Kilcannon Rapids. Samuel built them a cabin, previous to the marriage, we moved into it, and out of a walnut log near by we split, hewed and planned stuff and made corner cupboard, a table, and a bookcase, and all of which was still in our family in 1877. The floor was made of puncheon, and the door was made of plank hewed out of split logs. For a copy of this info check out the Pioneer Reminiscences story on Margaret Myers.

This is where they later built a saw and grist mill, patents were later given for the style of roof he used, and a patent was also given for the buckets for the mill which were scrolled out by a millwright named Graves, and in later years a patent was issued to a man by the name of Ross for similar wheel buckets.
