General Notes: Husband - William Miller

---

He was born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, came to North Beaver Township, Lawrence County, prior to 1801, where he lived until his death. He acquired 640 acres of land, a whole section. For many years he served as a justice of the peace and few people in North Beaver Township at that time had not heard of 'Squire Billy Miller. Many had benefited through his advice, not a few through his charity, while he was one of the heartiest promoters of township improvements and a founder of both school and church in his neighborhood. For years he was a leading member and ruling elder of the United Presbyterian Church, which was then located near Mt. Jackson and was known as Reverend Neal's congregation. Justice Miller was a tower of strength to this organization and was connected with it until the end of his life. He engaged in farming and raised live stock and also operated a grist-mill, all of these industries serving to add both to his fortune and his prominence in the community.
