I'd like to meet my grandfather's brother, John F. Miller, who was in the harness business for 52 years. He was born in LaPort, Indiana in 1875. The family moved to Missouri when he was young and he lived in Rothville and Marceline before marrying a Mary GEARYin about 1902. They had one daughter, Lucille, born in 1903. John Miller was a business man and harness dealer in Kirksville from 1912 to 1947, the year he passed away. He had a huge harness shop at 212 N. Elson Street, I have a wonderful photo of the interior of the shop. I would love to visit and ask him about his business and why he chose to stay in Missouri when most of his family immigrated to Alberta, Canada in 1905, after his mother died. Of his 10 siblings, 5 of his brothers and 2 of his sisters, along with their father, moved to the Blackfalds area of Central Alberta. What made him stay in Missouri? Did his widow, Mary, stay in Kirksville and when did she die? His daughter married in about 1929, to a Dr. Casimir Bisson and moved to Skowhegan, Maine. I've inquired to the Adair Co. Library earlier, and they kindly sent me John Miller's obituary, but I've found nothing else on this family other than the 1910, 1920, and 1930 census. In his obituary it states that he was also a member of the Masonic Lodge and was a past master of the A. F. & A. M. No. 105. It states that his nephew, also named John Miller, purchased his business only a few months before his death. I've not been able to find anything about their only grandson, John Edward Bisson, born in 1933. He could still be living. Any help or suggestions to find out more would be gratefully appreciated. Happy Thanksgiving. Judy Blackfalds, Alberta, Canada
