Biographical History
Bailey was a lawyer and an autograph collector.
Theodorus Bailey Myers (1821-1888) was an American lawyer and autograph collector.
Theodorus Bailey Myers (1821-1888) was a lawyer and autograph collector. He was born in New York City, the son of Charlotte (Bailey) Myers and Mordecai Myers. Myers was educated at Columbia University; shortly afterwards, he began his career (1842). In that same year Myers married Catalina Juliana Mason; the couple had two children.
During the United States Civil War (1861-1865), Myers served with the Twelfth New York Militia. He also served in the position of quartermaster for the General staff, notably for General Wool. It was Myers's enthusiasm for American history and historical events that inspired him to collect historical autographs. Myers was ably assisted by another autograph collector, Dr. Thomas Addis Emmet. After Myers died in 1888, his wife donated the entire collection to the New York Public Library.
