"PROMINENT LOWELL BUSINESS MAN DIES"
George R. Myers Conducted Market in Merrimack Square Many Years
George R. Myers, a well known business man
of this city for many
years, died at his home,
43 Livingston Avenue, yesterday afternoon after
a long illness.
He came to this city from Boylston, N. S.
When he was
18 years of age, he was married.
Five years later he entered business
for himself
and operated a market in Merrimack Square for 27 years.
He
retired and later engaged in business again
when he purchased the Bryant
Carriage and Blacksmith shop in West Third Street,
which is still doing
business as the G. R. Myers Co.
In 1931 he re-married, taking Miss
Bertha Phinney for his wife,
who survives him. He was a member of
the
Calvary Baptist Church and was a member of
the old Paige Street Baptist
Church. Besides his wife
he leaves one sister, Miss Sadie Myers of
Sidney, N. S.
and several nieces and nephews."
