The story of Dorothea Elizabeth Meyer Boner, Dorothea was the daughter of Salem’s Tavern Keepers, the musician who entertained President Washington on his Southern Tour in 1791, and a courageous young woman who defied tradition and followed her heart by marrying the man she loved in spite of all obstacles. Although the work is historical fiction, it has been described as a “warm story of faith, hope and love that is as accurate as it is compelling.” Moravian author Dana Myers is a 6th grade teacher, Girl Scout troop leader, business owner and amateur historian. She is currently working on her next project, “My Name is Jane,” the story of Jane Ross of the Cherokee people. Part of the proceeds from sales of this book here go to the Archives.
