I wonder what the connection with the Millers was?
|
I'm guessing she's Roberts mother, the Malsters wife? Deaths Dec 1872 (>99%) MILLER Elizabeth 84 Worksop 7b 21 the age is a bit off?

Hi Everyone, You guys and dolls never cease to amaze me. Whilst I have been away working you have still been compiling stuff. Your appetites are ravenous for information. Once your on the trail, like a dog with a bone, you don't let go. Ref your last Lindsey. Elizabeth Hogg [from the 1st marriage] born 1829 Worksop who assumed the Miller name is possibly the one whose age seems a bit off? I owe you all beers for this huge amount of info you have given me, so if you ever get to England let me know. I am going to do an overlander next year from UK to Oz on the tour bus so I hope then to visit the places the Millers and McEwens lived at. Thank you all again. James

Hi Linsey, Correction to my last. Elizabeth Miller died Dec 1872 Worksop [7b 21] age 84. 1871 census states she is living on the income of houses and land when she was living at 14 Bridge Place, Worksop, Notts. James

Hi Mel75, Thank you for your input. I have taken my email address off as you requested, I didn't know it was not allowed. I will add the info you sent to my GR tree. Thanks again. James

Hi everyone, I have come across an article of the 73 Regt soldiers from UK who stayed in Australia at their own request. There is a Daniel and John McEwan and a John Miller plus a James , Michael and 3 Thomas Millers. Do you think this is possibly the missing piece of the jigsaw, where John McEwan met up with John Miller and they formed close ties? James
