Manasseh Shelly Moyer
M. S. Moyer, son of Samuel and Elizabeth (Shelly) Moyer was born in Springfield, Bucks Co. Penn. on Sept. 25, 1845. At the age of 17 he began teaching school, later he taught in Ohio, and then in Iowa, where ha met Anna M. Eymann with whom he united in marriage Apr. 19, 1874. At this time he was teacher in the Wadsworth (Ohio) College, the first Mennonite College in America. While here, their first son, Edwin Samuel, was born on Feb. 24, 1875, about a year later they moved to Bluffton, Ohio, where he also taught school. On Apr. 24, 1876, a son, Oscar, was born. He died at the age of about four months. In 1878 they moved to Morgan Co. Mo., arriving there in June, where he accepted the pastorate of the Bethel Menn. Church of that place. P. P. Lehman was also minister here, they dividing the work, and taking their turn at preaching on alternate Sundays. In July, 1880, a son was born, and died 3 weeks later. On Aug. 16, 1882, a girl, Selma Clarissa, was born. On Mar. l, 1885, a son John Frederic was born. On Sept. 14, 1886, a son, William Quintus, was born. On Nov. 26, 1890 Otto Jacob Conrad was born.
In March, 1901, the family moved to Deer Creek, Okla., where he accepted the pastorate of the D. C. Mennonite Church, which he filled until his death on Dec. 7, 1903, having preached twice on Sun. before passing away about 3 o'clock the next morning, thus dying in the harness as was his desire. He was buried in the Bayard Cemetary, Rev. Christ Krehbiel of Halstead Kans., and Samuel Musselman (a nephew) of Wayland, Iowa, officiated. Father was a successful teacher, having taught school in Penn., Ohio, Iowa, and Mo. He had the ability to explain things in such a way that it could be grasped by the children. This ability was one of the things that made his sermons interesting and helpful to all who had the privilege to hear him.
