Great to hear from you! I'm not at home right now so have limited access but your from archibalds son john, I'm down the Edward line. Still in cumberland. I only have one wife for John, Catherine/Katherine who in her time did some needlework who - unrelated to this site was uncovered by another woman who collects old needlework and was writing a book, she said it was the best example she had seen and I have photos, I'll have to dig them out.
Until later, regds John

This "Gentleman" - Archibald Meyers is quite the mystery...
Im approaching this from the other end, Im a Meyers, Archibald is my 3rd G.Grandfather.
Ill copy some info notes on him below:-
Archibald meyers - 3rd great grandfather
Travel to aus via Mermaid 1854 claimed age 36
with Hugh Hart aged 34
Aus death index / 1841 & 1851 england census
indicate aged 40 (birth 1815)
Married aged 20 to Margaret Bulman, 10 children -
James, Elizabeth, Edward, Thomas, John, Archibald Jr,
Jacob, Hugh, George & Cathrine
Lived Wetheral Carlisle (house still stands)
Some interesting points here, He had a son called Hugh and ive very recently done the ancestry DNA and found many links to Australia ( inc south ) and New Zealand.
Im aware but cant name off hand that another Meyers also went down under and worked on the construction of the Sydney harbour Bridge, im prepared to share any and all information if its of use to anyone.
Frustrated regards,
John.

Did you make any headway with this Stoney?
Archibald Meyer(s) as it happens was my 3rd great grandfather, ive met the same brick wall at the moment that you have. Im also aware of the Heligoland connection and how it came about
Pretty interesting story too, its where the family crest came from im told.
Hopefully hear from you soon.
