I have John Myers Sr. as being the son of John b. 1756 in
Germany and dying in 1800 in Sullivan Co. TN. and Anna Unknown b. 1760 in Germany who married l/8/1781and their children were Mary b. 1782, Martin 1784, Phoebe 1785, Jane 1789, James 1791, John 1792, Charlotte 1793, Elizabeth 1794, Henry and Jacob (twins) Dec. 31, 1795.

John b. 1756 was son of Jacob b. 1730 Westphalia, Germany
d. 1800 Chester Co. Pa. whose wife was Unknown but whose
children were: Lewis b. 1747-1760, John b. 1756, William
Sanford b. 1758, Abraham b. 1760, Jacob 1761-62, George
and Sarah (twins) b. 1760, Isaac and Henry (twins) b.Dec.
28, 1777. (Henry m. Elizabeth Trobaugh on 10/16/1799.)

I presume that you have the children of John I and Jane Dunn
but if not, they are: Henry b. 1815, William 1817, David
1819, Mary Ann (Polly) b. 1821, Elizabeth Jane 1823, Rhoda b. 1825, John (Baldy) 1827, Emelia (Milly) b. 1829, Nancy b. 1831, Susan b. 1833.

John I and Jane Dunn married 6/20/1814. Jane (b. l0/20/1792 d. 12/2/1865) was the daughter of Daniel I Dunn b. 6/7/1761 Henrico Co. Va and d. 3/25/1822 in Greene Co. TN and Rhoda Unknown b. 1759 d. 1821 who married 3/25/1872 in Albemarle Co. VA. Daniel's known children are Jane, Amelia (Millies) and Daniel II.
John I who was born 10/26/1792 in Horse Creek, Greene Co. TN died 3/10/1854 in Tuckaleechee Cove, Blount Co. TN and he and his wife are buried at Myers Cemetery, Townsend, Blount Co. TN. I have more on John and Jane's children.

I notice that you have John as being born in 1782 instead
of 1792 and if so then he was the twin of his sister Mary, which I cannot confirm or deny. Most of my information came
from Greene County sources like books.
