A list of his children in the files also is missing some known to be born to him, suggesting that they died before the will was probated, as well.
      The will is also filed in the City of Baltimore Register of Wills, Liber E.R.D. no. 158, folio 388.

      FAMILY HISTORY SKETCH: According to the family history compiled by Agnes Simon Riesett, "Lambert Myers was an engineer on the tug boat 'Elsie,' owned by the Old Bay Line. Lambert was short, fat, with a white beard and a weathered face--a Santa Claus look-alike."

      OTHER FAMILY CONNECTIONS:
      Lambert Meyer's aunt, Elisabeth Meyers, married Carl Ludwig Ellinghaus (born abt. 1800), the father of the Charles Louis Ellinghaus who brought Agnes Schütte (Lambert's sister-in-law) to Baltimore from Germany. Thus, Lambert was Charles Ellinghaus' first cousin. The Meyers, Ellinghauses, and Schüttes all lived in St. Michael's RC parish in Baltimore.
