    Notes:

    John was born to Jacob and Margaret Miller from Hesse, Germany in Falkner's Swamp north of Philadelphia. He was christened at the Tulpehocken Lutheran Church in Berks County on November 23, 1733. His family moved to Linville Creek in the Shenandoah Valley about 1750, nearly the same time the Lincolns and Boones also moved there from Berks County. John then married Barbara Mauzy of Fauquier County about 1765. They moved their family to Indian Creek near Greenville in what was then Botetourt County, Virginia, probably after his father Jacob had died in 1772 and maybe with Valentine Cook of Linville Creek in 1773. John helped build Cook's Fort 1/4 mile west of Greenville, where some of their 10 children were born. This Fort was used to muster the Botetourt County Militia for the Point Pleasant Battle in 1774 and was a refuge from the Indians whenever they attacked. Their farm grew to 983 acres in what became Monroe County in 1799 and their Miller-Pence Farm and Miller-Halstead Cemetery were added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.

    Oren Frederick Morton's 1916 book "A History of Monroe County" says John once thought he could see a plumed head from a distance as he heard a turkey gobbling noise. Thinking an Indian was trying to lure him from his house, he went out the back door with his rifle, took a circuit of nearly a mile, then came up behind the still gobbling Indian and shot and scalped him. Morton also said Panther Hollow on Indian Creek was named when John heard a piece of bark fall from a tree and looked up to see a panther ready to spring, so he quickly fired and killed it.

    In 1777, John served in the Revolutionary War with Captain John Preston in the Montgomery County Militia and is #A208591 in the DAR Register, which has his birthdate as ca1735. In 1780, he also served as a Greenbrier County juror after it was formed in 1777. John was then buried as J. M. in the Miller-Halstead Cemetery, when he died in 1826 at the age of 93.


    Died:
    Probably on Indian Creek where he settled and lived, near the later village of Greenville.

    John married Barbara Mauzy about 1765. Barbara was born in 1744 in Warrenton, Fauquier Co, VA; died on 15 Nov 1819 in Greenville, Monroe Co, VA; was buried in Miller-Halstead Cemetery, Monroe Co, WV. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    Below is an excerpt from Part I, Chapter One, Genealogy of Jacob Miller and his Descendants (With Some Brief History Thereto), by Everett W. Miller, 1953. Note that local records were destroyed by fire, and existing records came from other sources, including records in Washington, D.C.
    — Note that this work is a compilation of records, recollections and other previous works.

    "According to Government records obtained by Sigfus Olafson, Jacob Miller was born in Germany in the year 1702 and came to America with his parents in 1715. They settled about 30 miles from the Port of Philadelphia, at a place known as Faulkner's Swamp. Here Jacob, the boy, lived to manhood and at the age of 23 married a German girl of the same name, who either came over with them, or at a later date; more probably at a later date, since she was from another part of Germany and spoke a different dialect. One spoke High German, being from the Highlands, while the other spoke Low German, being from the Lowlands.

    "Philadelphia being the port to which most of the early emigrants came, the nearby territory soon became thickly populated. Consequently, they spread outward into the less settled parts of the surrounding country-Westward into the Pennsylvania Territory; South and Southwestward into the Virginia Territory.

    "JACOB MILLER and family went south westward along the southern fringe of the Allegheny Mountains and found their way into the Shenandoah Valley, making their home in the fertile valley of (now) Rockingham County, near the present town of Harrisonburg, where he reared his family."
