Just to chime in on this subject, I was born and raised in Millersburg, which is just on the other side of the River in Dauphin co. My grandparents used to take me across the ferry in the summer and go thru millerstown to go to our hunting camp. I believe that Millerstown was founded by a brother of Daniel Miller who founded Millersburg. Though I don't know for sure.
