From the book, "Myers and Fishburn Families", 1969 by Vera Fishburn Myers Weaver and Alvin L. Weaver

Many Mayer-Meyer names appear on the records in Wurtemburg, Germany. From some of the early history of that Province we have learned that one Melchoir Meyer (Myers), who was born 1495, was named Military Chief of the Free Imperial City of Ulm. Later mention of the Mayer-Meyer names indicates that many men of that name, or a spelling not too different, were military men. The services they gave must have been of some value for Emperor Maximilian granted the Mayer family it's "Coat of Arms" in 1570.
