General Notes: Husband - James Miller


He was born on the old home farm in Mt. Pleasant township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, where he grew to manhood, receiving his education in the primitive subscription schools of the period. After marriage they lived on the home farm, eight miles from Washington, which contained 257 acres of well-improved land, and had been in the possession of the family for many years. Mr. Miller erected a good residence, a tenant house, three comfortable barns and two sheep houses, all commodious and well-built. Politically he was a Democrat, served as supervisor, and nine years on the school board. He and his wife were members of the Chartiers Cross Roads United Presbyterian Church for over forty years.
