---- "I not only have a Mr. ? Bockus who married into our Miller line, but we have some Corey's that also married into the Miller line. Wouldn't this be funny if this Ada E. Corey was related to my great great grandmother Catherine Corey?" Sandy Williams Reply: Where I live in Stanbridge East, the surnames Bockus,Corey and Miller are quite common, and have indeed intermarried.
