General Notes: Wife - Mary Magdalena Deshler
She was of English descent, a woman of gentle character and of culture, hailing from southeastern Pennsylvania. A singular romance of her marriage being, that, having won this fair maiden's heart, her husband brought her to his home in central Pennsylvania from the Banks of the Delaware on horseback, the method of travel then in vogue. She brought, among her household effects, the first piano known to have been in that community. This early instrument, during the lifetime of its owner, stood in the old Miller homestead. It was later the property of Mr. Deshler, a banker of Columbus, Ohio, a distant collateral relative, it having gone into that branch as an heirloom at Mrs. Miller's decease.
