Sites, as well as her mother, Susannah Wysong were native Virginians. The death of her mother when Sarah was only five years old, made it necessary for her father, a man of sturdy character and high ideals, to place her and her sister in charge of a governess, a most excellent lady whose advanced methods and great merit had much to do with those habits of industry that characterized her whole life, as well as the formation of that beautiful character so fitly shown in her kind, sweet, motherly face. No one ever saw her in anger or idleness. No one ever heard her speak ill of another. While yet a young girl she united with the Christian Church and ever remained a consistent member. At the age of 22 years, or in 1834, while living with her father and sister on the old Walnut Creek farm near Lancaster, she married Nicholas D. Myers. The love and devotion here begun was to last for more than half a century and end only in death. To them were born seven children, six sons and one daughter, five of whom, four sons and the daughter, survive her. In 1841 she accompanied her husband and father to Missouri where they went to undertake the management of the latter's plantation, but the country proving very unhealthful to her they were compelled to return east and settled at Fort Wayne where her sister, Mrs. J.S. Story had already located. Remaining there until 1849 she joined her husband in Wabash where he had established a foundry and machine shop, where she has since resided. Her energy, her devotion to her children, her vigor of mind, her sweet disposition and kindness of heart were all matters of remark by those who met her. Her mental vigor she retained to the very last and her words, "I am all worn out - worn out," wafted her loving spirit to the great beyond and thus ended a very useful and beautiful life.
