    3. I'm sending this querry to both lists, since the marriages occurred in what was then Adams County; however, the Millers in whom I am interested appear to have lived in Byrd township, which later became Brown County. I looked at early Miller marriages in Adams County, where my ggg grandparents, James Miller and Salley Sherry were married. Their son John married a Nancy Murphy. A Miller cousin reports that James Miller's sister Susan married a John Murphy, but I have not found this marriage license information myself. Does anyone know about Miller and Murphy connections in Adams/Brown Cos? I also noticed a coincidental marriage of Elizabeth Miller, widow, to a James Williams, who was in Byrd township about when James and Sarah were there. Is anyone studying Byrd township Millers? If you are studying Sherrys (descendants of Daniel B Sherry and Nancy Devore), I have more information. Sharon Mills The following marriages were found in Marriage book 1 (only the marriages performed in Byrd township designated the township): David Miller and Catherine STUDDYBAKER c 1799 Elizabeth Miller and James Horn c 1803 Benjamin Painter and Catherine Miller c 1805 Elizabeth Miller (widow) and James Williams this one in Byrd Twp by Joseph Newman, JP Westley Hathaway and Jane Miller c 1807 John Gilliland and Polly Miller c 1807 Robert Miller and Elizabeth Worstett c 1811 James Miller and Salley Sherry Oct 15 1809 by Berry Sutton Sr, JP in Byrd Twp, recorded Nov 11 1809
