I am sure that is the one we seek as the age is about right to be listed as 'cousin' in the 1843 will of Capt. John Miller's [b. 1759-d. 1843 Somerset] And again in Major Gen'l James Miller, older brother of Capt. John [b. 1757-d-1810] - [Both older brothers to our direct line Jane Duncan Miller + Pierce [Axminster/New Park-Devon Co] That could very well a son in the 1851 census - age about right. As to the wills: The Elizabeth we have as a sister to the parents - [our 1st James Miller/m to Jane Duncan /London was married to William Shipley Royal Soc. Of Agricultural/now Arts [Capt John d. Brislington/Somerset] is listed as 'nephew' in Society of Arts articles which began this hunt. I am going to send for the will of Anne as listed as 'wife' / Ruled out Helena/aka Elinor as she shown as 'Widow; at her death in 1810 [according to both wills he named in he was alive in 1843] We are basically hoping to find his parents. [for starters - VBG] That could very well a son in the 1851 census - age about right. [b. ca. 1797] But you have definitely given me several solid leads w/place of birth as Dorking] [If this George a brother of our 1st James as cousin to Capt. John, no doubt b. London area] Leaving your response in place for this reply - as others may pick up on the combined information - I can't thank you enough as the mystery deepened when this George Miller named in two wills - [Capt John and Maj. Gen. James] Mimi **************************************************************************** Hi Mimi According to one of my books on Farnham, George Miller was resident at Castle Hill House in 1836 which is quite a prestigious address - and co-incides with the directory entry you have found. This George Miller played a part in local affairs and is mentioned as a town rate payer when he signed an application for a meeting about street lighting for the town in August 1830, in 1836 he was elected Chairman of the (then) new board 'for superintendence of the Highways of the Parish', and he is mentioned again when in 1837 he was a signatory witness to a contract with the directors of the Farnham Gas Company. I don't have ready access to further information about any of these three documents but Surrey History Centre may have. Can you be a little more specific as to what you are hoping to find. For example, have you looked at census and parish records? Have you looked for George's Will? TNA's documents online site lists three wills for surname Miller in Farnham, Surrey, each available to download at £3.50 - but obviously there can be no advance guarantee they will be found to be connected with George: Will of Elizabeth Hooks Miller, Spinster of Farnham , Surrey 26 January 1853 PROB 11/2165 Will of Ann Miller, Wife of Farnham , Surrey 28 April 1838 PROB 11/1894 Will of Helena otherwise Elinor Miller, Widow of Farnham , Surrey 16 January 1810 PROB 11/1507 1851 census index has a George Miller at Farnham aged 66 years born Dorking - but is he yours?
