Surnames: Miller, Ross Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/UW.2ADE/686.2.2 Message Board Post: Mendocino Beacon Mendocino, Mendocino Co., CA Saturday, August 29, 1896 DEATH OF D. W. MILLER. After a lingering illness Mr. D. W. Miller died at the home of his father-in-law, Rev. John S. Ross, at Caspar, on last Sunday, Aug. 26, 1896. The funeral took place last tuesday afternoon from the Baptist church by Rev. Whitesides. The body was interred in the Caspar cemetery. The extensive friendship and universal esteem enjoyed by the deceased was manifested by the large number congregated at the funeral, the cortege of vehicles extending for nearly a mile on the route to the cemetery. D. W. Miller was born in St. Clair Co., Ill., June 7th, 1861. When 6 years of age the family removed to Missouri. Early in life he thirsted for an education. Newly settled localities did not afford the best advantages to secure this and he struggled hard to accomplish his purpose. He made sufficient progress, so that at the age of 19 we find him teaching school at intervals in order to obtain means to pursue his studies. He attended several terms at Sedalia University and graduated from the State Normal School at Warrensburg in the class of '87. Soon afterward he accepted a position in the high school, Nevada, Mo., as vice-principal, which he filled with credit to himself and to the satisfaction of the Board of Education. He came to California in 1888. In December of that year he came to Fort Bragg, where he spent some months there until he began teaching at Caspar in March, 1889, where he taught two years. Sept. 4th, 1890, he married Lizzie Ross, eldest daughter of Rev. J. ! S. Ross, so well known on this coast. At Fort Bragg he then taught as substitute for Prof. Surface while he was an invalid, and when that gentleman went East Mr. Miller became his successor as principal. He held this position for three years, when he resigned owing to symptoms of failing health. He did some office work as notary public and insurance agent afterwards. In September, 1895 he made a trip to Alaska to inspect a mining claim. Returning home from San Francisco, he contracted a cold which indicated the first symptoms of the disease which proved fatal. In November, 1895, he and his wife went to Alaska intending to remain for a time in the interest of the California share holders of the Alaska Willoughby Gold Mining Co. At Juneau, before reaching their destination, he was taken very ill with lung fever. He partially recovered and they spent four months in Alaska, returning home in March, 1896. After his return he was anxious and satisfied to remain at home, thinking that any possible benefit he might receive in another climate would be counteracted by the exertion of travel and the absence of the comforts of home. He joined the Baptist church in early life, and lived and died a consistent Christian. His father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Alex Miller, who visited him, as also do two sisters, all of Lewis, Mo., and all, especially his sorrowing widow, have the heartfelt sympathy of the community in their sad bereavement.

Surnames: Miller, Ross Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/UW.2ADE/686.2.1 Message Board Post: Mendocino Beacon Mendocino, Mendocino Co., CA Saturday, January 29, 1944 TALENTED WOMAN DIES AFTER LONG ILLNESS ELIZABETH ROSS-MILLER 76; PASSES AWAY AT CLEONE The passing of Elizabeth Ross Miller, whose death occurred Thursday at the family home at Cleone, removes one whose unusual talents made her a much sought after speaker and lecturer up to the time of her serious illness some twenty years ago. A daughter of that famed early day minister, Rev. J. S. Ross, who was known, respected and loved by people of every grade and calling, she as a very young woman had established a wide acquaintance through association with her father, and in later years she gained for herself a Statewide reputation through her temperance work. Born 76 years ago January 11th in Thurso, Canada, she came with her parents when but a year old to California, and her girlhood days were spent at the old Ross home at Caspar. She returned to Canada after completing her schooling here and spent two years at Woodstock Academy. Returning to this coast at the end of that period, she sometime later was united in marriage to D. W. Miller, a school principal, and with him settled at Fort Bragg where he was principal of the elementary schools for some time. When the Nome gold discovery was made, her husband decided to go north, and she accompanied him. His health failed in the rigorous Alaska climate and they returned to this coast where he passed away after a long illness. Since that time Mrs. Miller has made her home most of the time at the Ross ranch at Cleone but up to the time of her last illness she was much occupied with church work in coast communities and in State-wide temperance work. Always a frail body, she was ill for some time after her husband's death, and only by resolution and fortitude did she overcome this illness, and for many years thereafter was able to give of her time and talents for the welfare of others. She is survived by three brothers, William H. Ross, John S. Ross and Robert R. Ross, and one sister, Anna H. Ross. To these is extended the sympathy of many friends.
