Susannah Leedy was the eldest daughter of John Leedy and was the second white child born in Richland county. She was married to Henry Myers in 1828. They lived in Ohio until 1849 then moved overland to Tipton, Cedar county, Iowa. Her husband died Feb. 7, 1875 and she has since made her home with her daughters, Mrs. Mary Cattell and Mrs. Jennie Schlagle. Mrs. Myers suffered for years with cancer on her face and many times her life was depaired of but she seemed possessed of remarkable vitality and recovered when there seemed no hope. She died of great age and general paralysis. She was the mother of five boys and seven girls. Two boys died in infancy; Norman and John, and one daughter married to John Cary, died in Davenport, Iowa, May 10, 1899. The three sons living are Jacob and Samuel of Des Moines and Louis of Dodge, Nebraska. The daughters living are Mrs. Sarah Wirick, Bertram, Iowa, Mrs. Elizabeth Coleman and Mrs. Jennie Schlagle of Des Moines, Mrs. Martha Moon of Hubbard, Iowa, Mrs. Elvina Griffith of Eagle Grove, Iowa, and Mrs. Mary Cattell of Ames, Iowa. Since making her home with Mrs. Schlagle she gradually became both blind and deaf and has been a constant charge for twelve years. Her daughter gave time and thought and whole existence to caring for the dear old lady whom every body loved. She was never left alone day or night and everything was done that could be done to render her comfortable. Mrs. Myers was a member of the Methodist church from her youth and brought her children up to fear God and do the right. She was buried at Mt. Zion cemetery five miles southwest of Tipton, Cedar county, Iowa, by the side of her husband. She has 65 grandchildren and 94 great-grandchildren.
