== Early life and family ==
He was born in Germany on April 4, 1851,〔 the son of Jacob Mery.〔 His family emigrated to the United States in 1854, when he was three years old. The family made it as far west as Toledo, Ohio, where Jacob had begun to establish a residence, but died only three months after arriving, and his wife died a week later. The family with seven sons, and one daughter, with Michael as the youngest were orphaned.〔
In 1865 Mery went to Detroit, and learned to be a machinist.〔 After four years in Detroit, he traveled through the Mississippi Valley, including to Louisville, Kentucky, New Albany, Indiana.〔 He landed engineering jobs in New Orleans, and Rockport, Texas.〔
In the spring of 1870, he returned to St. Louis and worked constructing city water works.〔 From there he went to Cairo, Illinois, where he worked in an iron foundry. He also worked for a while as a machinist in Houston, Texas, and then returned to New Orleans, to enter the machine shops of the New Orleans and Jackson Railway.〔 This prompted a return to St. Louis in 1871.〔 He went to East St. Louis, Illinois to supervise the Ohio and Mississippi machine shop.〔 It was from there he emigrated to California.〔
