General Notes: Husband - H. J. Milliren


He was born in Beaver township, Jefferson County, Pennsylvania, and, except for the short residence in Ohio, he was reared in that county. On August 28, 1861, he enlisted in Company G, 105th P. V. I., "for three years or the war." He was mustered into service at Callarama Heights, near Washington, D. C., and, his regiment being assigned to the Army of the Potomac, Third Army Corps, he took part in some of the severest engagements of the war. In December, 1863, he veteranized in the same company and regiment, and on May 5, 1864, he was wounded in the right leg, where the bullet remained even years later; but he remained in service until the close of the war, being honorably discharged at Pittsburgh, July 11, 1865. Returning to Jefferson County, he engaged in lumbering and farming, and in 1867 went to Allegan county, Michigan, where in addition to these lines of business he operated a stave factory and shingle mill, but making a specialty of tight barrels. In 1891 he returned to his native state and located in Du Bois, where he worked for a time in a machine shop. In 1893 he was elected to the office of constable in the Second ward.
In politics, Mr. Milliren was a Republican of the stanchest kind. He was interested in the military organizations that sprang up after the war, and was a member of Enston Post, No. 229, G. A. R., at Du Bois, Pennsylvania, and the Union Veterans Legion, No. 46, of Brookville. He also belonged to a number of social orders\emdash the Ancient Order of United Workmen, the United Mechanics, the Home Protection Circle, and Hamilton Lodge, No. 315, I. O. O. F., at Hamilton, Michigan.
