I am looking for parents of John H. Miller and a connection between John H. Miller and Mary Ann Miller. I have: Isabella Yocum b: 23 Aug. 1814, m: John H. Miller b: 12 Oct.1809, they had a daughter Amanda Elizabeth Miller b: 2 Jan. 1840 in Selinsgrove, Pa., d: 18 Sept. 1904 in Ottawa Co. Ohio, m: Jacob B. Stetler b: 10 Jan. 1835,Pa, d: 28 July 1900 in Ottawa Co., Ohio. My grandmother Jennie Julia Stetler wrote names in a diary she kept. These names and dates are: Mary Ann Miller born: 7 April 1816 regards, Cheryl
The 1820 Ohio census shows an Adam Funk in Muskingam County, Ohio. Subsequent marriage records in the same county show a Joseph Funk marrying a Sarah Miller in 1822 and another Joseph Funk marrying an Elizabeth Richardson later in the same decade. 1830 census records show two Joseph Funks in Muskingam County. 1840 census records show one in Pickaway County and one in Hocking County, Ohio. The one in Pickaway County is still there in 1850 and has various people named Richardson in the same household. The Hocking County Joseph Funk appears to be a widower in the 1840 census and he himself is dead by 1850. One of his children Mary Funk(my 2nd great grandmother) is in the household of a John Rose and Sarah Funk Rose in that 1850 census. Sarah Funk Rose would be the correct age to be one of Mary's older sisters and shares the first name of Sarah Miller Funk. Can anyone confirm or share more info about this Sarah Miller/Joseph Funk union or about the parentage of either individual? Thanks, Mike Beckley at msb@core.com
