    The following is from the membership application of Kerry Chapman Gryczynsla:

    Oliver settled in West Greenwich, Rhode Island, and was for a time in Richmond, Rhode Island. He married Mary Munro 13 May 1736. They had eight children. One was Anna who married George Gardner, Jr. The sons were Oliver, Hezekiah, Nicholas Nd Gideon, and grandsons Joseph and Benjamin, all of Pownal. Oliver Myers, Sr., died 29 Aug 1769 and his widow, Mary came to Pownal and lived with her children. The early Myers families seem to have always lived near Pownal Center. One family owned the west part of the school lot where the late George Myers farm is located.

    Oliver married Mary Munro on 13 May 1736. Mary (daughter of Joseph Munro and Mary Bowerman) was born on 23 Oct 1715 in Bristol, Bristol Co., Rhode Island, USA; died in Nov 1800; was buried in Pownal, Bennington Co., Vermont, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 11.  Mary Munro was born on 23 Oct 1715 in Bristol, Bristol Co., Rhode Island, USA (daughter of Joseph Munro and Mary Bowerman); died in Nov 1800; was buried in Pownal, Bennington Co., Vermont, USA.

    Notes:

    Error alert: Some references say that Mary was the daughter of William Munro and Mary Lindsay. It appears that in 1715, two people named Mary Munro were born in Bristol, Rhode Island. If so, these two people get confused in different references. I don't know which version is correct. [Ed.]

    The following is from the membership application of Kerry Chapman Gryczynsla:

    In the soutwest corner of the Pownal Center Cemetery near the street is the grave of Mary Myers who died in November 1800 in her 86th year. All the Myers families of Pownal trace her.

    She was born 23 Oct 1715 in Bristol, Rhode Island, the daughter of Joseph and Mary (Bowerman) Munro. Her grandfather, Tristram Bowerman, was a ship builder in Bristol and among other vessels he constructed "the good sloop William" as well as the sloop "Dolphin."

    When Mary Munro played along the waterside in Bristol and doubtless in her grandfather's ship yard, Pownal and the State of Vermont were regions unheard of. She married Oliver Myers of Little Compton, a son of Nicholas "Mias" as he spelled his name.
