General Notes: Husband - S. G. Miller
He attended school in the country, and began for himself when twenty years of age, with just 10 cents, with which he bought a handkerchief. He hired to Matthew McLean for $10 per month to labor on a farm. Ten years later he bought a farm in Wolf Creek Township, Mercer County, PA, where he remained for twenty-six years, and in connection with his farm labor ran a huxter wagon through the oil regions for three years.
He and his second wife came to Cool Spring Township in October, 1877, and bought sixty acres of good land. He was a Republican, and was assessor and collector four years. He and his wife were members of the First United Presbyterian Church of Mercer.
