Christopher Moyer Sr was probably born in Spottsvania County, Virginia. His name and his wife Catherines arre founf many times in the Hebron m Lutheran Church records. His name was spelled Mayer, Moyer, and Meyers on the church rolls. The Easter Festival Rolls of the Hevron Church in 1777 show Christopher was designated "Sen" and directly under his bame was Christopher "Jr" and his wife Catherine.

Christopher Sr entered into several transactions in Orange County, Virginia, some of these transactions were with his father, George. At least two of these land sales between George and Christopher referred to one another as father and son. Both signed their name with an "X" on all of their land transactions. Christopher Jr also made several land sales during this time and signed his name with an "X". It is assumed that the first three generations of Myers in America were illiterate.

 

The Hebron Church record of the first Advent Sunday in 1795 showed Christopher to be in attendance. He was probably aobut 75 years old at the time. His son Christopher, Jr had already moved to Tennessee at this time.
