  8. although this is so far unconfirmed other than the year matching Amelia's age given in her death cert. There is no birth obvious in the Kippen records to any James Millar or Miller (Also checked Perth, Kincardine, Stirling and Clackmannan records, to no avail)
    There is an entry for the chr. of an Emilia Miller d/o John Miller and Margaret Miller. It is sometimes suggested that this couple, the John and Margaret Miller who married Jan 15 1814 in Kippen are the right parents for Amelia/Emilia, but this doesn't fit either the naming pattern of James and Amelia's children or Amelia's father on her dth cert or grddtr Millie's note that Amelia's mother was a Miss Chrystal
