Jane Flynt >> Thomas Myers >> Beheathland Myers >> Mary Claughton >> Darius Cralle >> Eliza Jane Cralle >> Laura Sisson >> Louise Bryant >> Ralph Dameron >> Mark DameronSoon after they were married Jane's father's estate was administered. She and Mathew received 7,615 pounds of tobacco and 44 shillings sterling silver as Jane's share of 1/5th of Thomas Flynt's estate.
Not much is known of the origins of Mathew Myars. According to the 1969 Bulletin of the Northumberland County Historical Society he was German. A 1707 deed in Northumberland County states that Mathew, of Lancaster County, purchased 100 acres in Matapony Neck, Northumberland. Mathew's estate was administered in Northumberland in 1717, the documents refer to his wife Jane as administrator of his estate.
On August 20th, 1719 Jane Myars petitioned the Northumberland County Court for Christian Penny, a "base born child" that she had brought up from an infant. The court ordered Christian Penny to serve Jane Myars until she arrive at the age of 18 years.
An entry in Northumberland County Court Order Book from March 1734 states that "Matthew Myars orphan of Matthew Myars..." is apprenticed to Matthew Kenner Junior until the age of 21 to learn the trade of a Ship Carpenter. He was possibly the second son of Jane and Mathew. His apprenticeship could indicate that had passed away before he was 18 years old. No further records are known for Jane.
