I've never been able to pin him down as to which Miller's he belongs to, so if you find out, I would love to know. I knew the Bolick's came originally from Catawba County (Lincoln) (Abner's father Abraham) and there's a David Miller b 1794 in Lincoln County, whose parents were John Frederick Miller and Christina Bolch, so I've always believed he ties in with that family somehow. I'm tied into the Bolick's via both of my parents Compounding the records problem is there is another David Miller, also born in 1820 in Ashe County who is related to my Millers there (David Miller and Elizabeth Norris) and I don't have any records indicating either sets of Millers were related to each other. Don't know if you saw John Hawkin's story about the Trinity Lutheran Church Cemetary where Marcus is buried http://www.newstopic.net/articles/2007/08/17/columnists/31hawkins.txt One of our Bolick cousins (Sandy Bolick from Tennessee) has provided a good deal of information. She's a descendant of Marcus's as well - don't know if you know her, but she regularly posts on the Caldwell board. I'll be happy to exchange data off-line if you are interested. r/Jon ----- Original Message ----- From: <Edew31@wmconnect.com> To: <ncwataug@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, January 21, 2008 12:39 PM Subject: Re: [NCWATAUG] David A.
