My name is Bruce Meyer.I am a son of Thomas Nelson Meyer and Ruth Dolores Meyer.My grandparents were Archibald Lee Garboden and Agnes Gertrude Devlin; Charles Meyer and Nellie Jones from the Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co,Pennslvania area.I am interested in receiving any information on the aforementioned surnames and how it relates to our family.For the most part the any information will be pertinent appeciated.According to an article I read months ago, the Garboden surname is a relatively recent development, first appearing in German records in mid 1700's.The period in America tends to focus 19th to date.For those in need of information I will help as much as I can.Some helpfl information follows.The Garbodens came to America in the 1830's.They settled in the Winston/Salem area of North Carolina.For some reason shortly before the Civil War about half of the Garbodens migrated to the Indianapolis, Indiana.The second great migration of the Garboden clan precluded the Great Depression.Two brothers relocated from Indiana to the Eugene/Salem area of Oregon and a brother and sister relocated to the Pittsburgh area of Western Pennsylvania.We have a group of family in the Boston, Massachusetts area now, also.
