General Notes: Husband - William Boston Miller

---

He was reared to manhood in North Beaver Township, Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, and enjoyed excellent school advantages. In addition to receiving instruction in the public schools of the township and in select schools at various points, he had academic training at Canfield, Ohio. Following the completion of his education, he taught school for a number of terms before settling down to an agricultural life. In his early years he was a very extensive dealer and shipper of cattle and sheep and also largely interested in stock raising. His farming operations were carried on after modern methods and his farm was one of the best equipped, in the matter of machinery, in Pulaski Township.
In August, 1862, Mr. Miller enlisted for service in the Civil War, becoming a member of Company I, One Hundred and Thirty-fourth Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry, under Capt. John W. Hague. He served for nine months, being attached to the Fifth Corps, Army of the Potomac. He participated in a number of engagements, and in the terrible battle of Fredericksburg he was wounded in the right arm, an injury which confined him to two hospitals, for a period of four months, entailing great suffering. He was discharged from the Philadelphia Hospital, March 29, 1863, by reason of surgeon's certificate of disability.
He identified with the Republican party. In 1876 he was elected sheriff of Lawrence County and assumed the duties of the office in the following year, serving through three years in that position. He filled numerous local offices both in North Beaver and in Pulaski Townships. In the former township he took all the degrees in the order of the Patrons of Husbandry, and he belonged to Enon Lodge, No. 916, Odd Fellows. He was a member of Hopewell Presbyterian Church at New Bedford.
