    3. Brenda, I'm interested in the Millers of Chester County, SC. I fear I'm dealing with a widow in that I can't find parents of my gr gr grandmother Susannah Miller, who married Frincis E. Reedy. They are enumerated in the 1850 census of Chester Co. There are Miller families all around them, but I can't find evidence to properly link them.
