    1. [MILLER-L] Harrisburg & York, PA, Miller
    2. We have hit an extremely thick brick wall. My husband's father, Robert Edward Miller, was born in Harrisburg, PA, on December 4, 1900, and died in 1983, in Norwich, CT. In the 1970s, he verbally told me that his father's name was Robert Hansen/Hanson Miller and that he was from Harrisburg. His mother was Margaret Kirkpatrick, and she was from the Albany, NY, area. They died when he was young. There were no siblings (as far as we know). When he enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1922, he listed his residence as being in York, PA. The next of kin was an uncle, Robert J. Freysinger (Frysinger/Friesinger), who also lived in York. We have his military records (Marines and Navy) and Social Security application, but have not been able to find any birth record or locate him in census records. Also, we can find no records of Robert Hansen and Margaret Miller. We cannot get passed 1900 or prove his parentage. If anyone on the list recognizes any of the names, we would appreciate a response. If you have any suggestions, they would also be welcome.
