Hi Margaret, There won't be a Quincy newspaper that has a more complete obituary. I don't know where the town was from in Missouri where he died. Did you check Missouri newspapers? A newspaper local to where he died might contain more information. Also, I'm not too familiar with the Druids, Odd Fellows or IOMA. Perhaps those organizations had records that still exist. Have you checked that avenue? Perhaps someone on this list might know? Good luck searching!

Hi Margaret, That obituary is available in the Quincy Newspaper Archive, accessed via the Quincy Public Library's website. It was published in the Quincy Daily Whig, 8 January 1885. It appears on page 8, about half way down column 3. This obituary is not very long, but it does have some great detail in it. It tells where he died, his age, where he was born and it also implies that he was a member of the Odd Fellows, Druids and IOMA. Some great clues for further research! http://archive.quincylibrary.org/Archive/skins/QPL/navigator.asp?BP=OK&AW=10 88802815968 If you have any trouble accessing it, let me know. Happy Hunting!

Miller, died on 10 May 1881 in Adams Co. IL. He is buried at the Meints Cemetery, Adams County, Illinois. The Meints Cemetery records indicate he was born 14 Feb 1814. His wife, Gesche (Flessner) Miller, b. 10 Nov 1817, d. 23 July 1879, is buried in the same plot according to Meints Cemetery records. Due to the differences in his wives' age, 1814 vs 1817, and the fact that there is not any mention of "Flessner" in the birth/baptism records, I believe Gesche Flessner Miller is his second wife and they were married sometime after the July 31, 1851 birth of his last child, whose mother was Geesche Dircks, b. 1814. I am still looking for confirmation of this theory via a marriage license or obituary giving more information about Gesche Flessner and Gerd Focken Miller. Thanks to everyone who provided clues about this family prior to locating the LDS microfilm records. Any information about Gesche Dircks Meints Mueller would be greatly appreciated.
