Hello, I read recently that MILLERD & MILLARD were actually forms of the same name, "MILLER". I hope some kind person out there in the beautiful midwest can help me...(or anywhere); Is anyone on the list related to the Fulton County MILLARDS? Levi MILLERD, is on the 1840 Fulton Co, IL Census, Putman Twp. Then, on the 1840 Census; there is a Levi MILLARD in Canton, IL,(age 65, born in R.I) And, more importantly, another Levi MILLER in Putman Twp. I am trying to find out if there is any connection with my 3rd grt grndfather, Marquis, (later called Marcus) D. MILLER, who lived most of his life in Smithfield, IL; and the MILLARDS. Also, I am looking for anyone related to his 10 children. His wife was Susannah WACHTAL, WAUGHTEL, daughter of Henry WACHTAL, Sr. I believe there were 3 different lines of MILLERS in the Smithfield area- I am trying to write a book about this family---the problem is, I can't find his parents in New York state. I have most information on Marquis since he arrived in IL. ~~~~~~~~~~~~Are Any of These Names Familiar?~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Children of Marquis D. MILLER & Susanna WACHTAL MILLER~~~~~~~~~ George W.
