J. W. MILLER

J.W. Miller, farmer; P.O. Troy; is the eldest son of John V. and Rebecca Miller; was born April 22, 1838. Miss Sarah A. Shoemaker, of Dayton, became his wife in 1865; their children were born in the following order: William A., Sept. 20, 1875; and Jeannette R., March 17, 1878; they are a most interesting family of children. Mrs. Miller is a native of Pennsylvania, and was raised in a city, but, as a farmer’s wife, she can scarcely have an equal; Mr. Miller proposes to move to Kansas in the spring of 1881, and engage with his brothers in the stock business; Miami County will thus lose one of her best men, who can illy be spared; they are both influential members of the M.E. Church, and here will their loss be felt. Mr. Miller sold his elegant farm last year and intends investing a large part of his money in lands in Kansas. He carries with him the kindest wishes of every family in Monroe Township.
