Person:Esther Miller (11)

From existing evidence, the author infers that Sarah MILLER was living in the household of Thomas SHORES (1735-1804) in the 1800 US Census, Maryland, Somerset Co., with her son, Thomas MILAR SHORES, under 10 years of age. Esther and Thomas MILAR were also beneficiaries in the will of Thomas SHORES in 1804. The author further infers that Joab SHORES was the father of Thomas MILAR SHORES and another son of Thomas SHORES (1735-1804), although he was apparently not in the household at the time of the 1800 US census, nor is he mentioned in Thomas SHORES' will. No record has been found of a marriage between Esther MILLER and Joab SHORES, and the reference in Thomas SHORES' will to Esther MILLER leads me to think there was no marriage.
