Research notes

  • We are unable to identify Miller's family.
  • Looking for a 1870 census record in Pennsylvania. Possibly South Middleton, Cumberland County, as the school listed his family address at admittance in 1875 as Mt. Holly Springs
  • also looking for 1880 in Nebraska
  • There are some who show father as Bartimeus Smith of Fulton County, Pa. but I have found no Civil war record for a Bartimeus, He did live 1828-1902 in Fulton County and owned land in Fulton county as of 1857 as Bartimeus Smith. But this conflicts with the Mt Holly Springs reference for Miller and the need for a Civil war vet father.
