Frank Miller born 1853 in NY married Laura Hoag in Centralia, Il, Clinton Co. Il on Jul 8 1884. They had two children. Dwight and Myrtle. I think Dwight married someone name Mary. They lived somewhere around Chicago I think.They too had two children. I believe Mary died and he remarried. Might give someone some clues. Laura Hoag Miller was my gr Aunt.
