My research on my grandfather family line leads me to Jeremiah Miller married to Elizabeth Derry or London Derry Ireland my deceased mother always told me we were of Scotch Irish descent but I do not know when the Scottish immigrated to Ireland but it must have been when the English and Scotish Presbyterians immigrated to Ireland, the ancestor that immigrated to Carlisle Pennsylvania area of the US around 1740 was Robert Miller or possibly known as Matthew Miller or Robert Matthew Miller who was married to Jane Elizabeth Smith he had a brother Phillip and another brother whose name I have not yet uncovered Robert Miller's Eldest son John Miller was a major in the Revolutionary War and married his wife Ann McClintock in a Presbyterian Church in the Carlisle or Sherman Valley Cumberland County Pennsylvania area Ann McClintock was daughter of Joseph McClintock and Elizabeth Torrence Joseph was son of William McClintock Elizabeth was daughter of Hugh Torrence and sister to Adam, Elanor and George Robert Miller's eldest son John was a major in the Revolutionary war , John emigrated with his brother Robert to Bourbon County Kentucky - Robert was killed by indians on the boat trip on the Ohio river this is as much as I know about the Scotch - Irish ancestry of my family to date any links or additional information would be greatly appreciated
