JACOB MILLER
Jacob Miller, whose death was noted in these columns last week, was born April 11, 1801 in Mifflin County. While he was quite young his parents moved to the farm in Trough Creek valley, on which C.W. Steele now lives. He bought the tract of land on which he died about 1832. He cleared the ground, raised the buildings and for nearly 60 years it was the dearest spot on earth to him.
About 1828 he was married to Rachel Dell of Hare's valley, who died December 12, 1849, aged 40 years, 6 months and 10 days. To this union, thirteen children-5 sons and 8 daughters- were born. They are George, Henry and David, and Mrs. Mattie Stever of this [], Mrs George Beaty of Shirley township, and Mrs Ann Miller, of Blair county.
About 1851 he was again married to Elizabeth Taylor. To this union three sons and three daughters were born, of whom two sons and one daughter survive. They are Gideon, Abram and Miss Judith, all of this vicinity.
Mr. Miller was a man of remarkable [] endurance. His record as a hunter has never been surpassed in this []. Up to within the past few months nothing delighted him more than to start with his gun on a hunt, and his home was always an hospitable place. The immediate cause of his death was a stroke which he received the previous Monday, from which time he was unconscious. The remains were interred in the family burying ground on the farm, Friday morning, the services being conducted by Rev. L. Smith.
