- Note*: 1841; Factory Rd. & Main St., Mill Creek, Lennox & Addington Co., Ontario; "The present owners are descendants of Parker Smith Timmerman, Odessa’s first postmaster and the man who was responsible for naming the town after a British engagement in the Crimean War. Parker Timmerman married Mary Eleanor Booth, daughter of Benjamin and sister of the milling brothers. He operated a store on the main street and served as postmaster from 1841 to 1897. He also collected taxes for the school, distributed newspapers, acted as treasurer of Ernestown, wrote wills, and was active in church affairs. The Timmerman store is one of a pair of well-preserved stone buildings on opposite corners of Main and Factory Streets on the south side of Main. Local histories refer to a revolutionary scheme devised by Timmerman which proves that genius sometimes lies in discovering the obvious. The mail was carried by stage coach along the York-Kingston road in large bags which contained all the letters for the scattered towns and villages along the route. When the mail coach arrived at Timmerman’s post office, sometimes at night, he like his counterparts along the way had to go through the entire collection to find the local letters. He suggested that the mail be sorted once at the start and placed in small bags, one for each stop. The inspiration was adopted, speeding mail delivery to a point which has probably not been surpassed since. On the opposite corner from the scene of Timmerman’s success is a companion building in stone, erected in 1840 and long a commercial building. It is now the Royal Bank, skilfully restored with a minimum of advertisement about its current function so that the original lines and fine windows are not unduly obscured. It is an example of what can be accomplished when businessmen and local historians work together to preserve a heritage for present use." from Homesteads, by Margaret McBurneyt & Mary Byers, pg. 83 & 841

He is said to be a "merchant in Thurlow" so it appears he moved from Belleville to the River Trent at this time. Canniff in his 1869 book states that, "Up to 1808 the site of the village was a dense cedar swamp. Two years before A. H. Myers had removed from Belleville and erected a mill about a mile from the mouth of the river, first a saw mill, afterward a flouring mill." There is also a statement in PLBQ stating that in 1808 AH Meyers had a store in Trenton. No record in Thurlow has been found during this time when he is establishing himself as a merchant and getting married. It appears that Adam H Meyers moved to the River Trent from Thurlow in 1808 and setting up as a merchant and establishing the mill. He states in his 1818 petition that he "has erected two saw mills and a grist mill." From the 1808 purchase of the mill site it is clear that a mill already existed on the site.

- Residence: 1825; Seymour Twp., Meyersburgh, Northumberland Co., Upper Canada; "Dave Barry writes that AH Meyers "was the founder of the tiny Hamlet of Myersburgh [spelled Meyersburg in the 1878 Belden Atlas], below Campbellford in Seymour Township. I was raised on a farm just south of the Village of Hastings Ontario, and Adam H Meyers owned this property along with another 1000 acres or so along the Trent River, near Hastings – this sparking my interest in him. I believe Adam H Meyers of Trenton was a contestant for the coveted Mill Seat on the Trent River…the site of the Village of Hastings, that was awarded to the Honourable James Crooks in 1825. However, as a consolation, Adam H Meyers appears to have received Location Tickets for some 1200 acres of land on the Trent River at the site of Myersburgh, just nine days before the granting of this Mill Seat at Hastings. He already had a very major land and lumbering presence in the Hastings area at the time." from Adam Henry Meyeres of Murray Twp. on freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com2
