Hey Sandy...I just checked the 1880 Census for Eliza Anthony Miller, and she is listed in the following household: James H. Miller, 50, KY, KY, KY Sarah A, 16, daughter, --- Louella, 12, KY, KY, TN Rebecca, 10, KY, KY, TN Nancy A., 8, KY, KY, TN Eliza Anthony, 6, KY, KY, TN Henry, 4, KY, KY, TN Jo Browder, 1, --- 249-259 District 6, New Roe It looks like her mother may have passed shortly after the birthof Jo Browder. This census shows Eliza at the age of 6, however, her date of birth was 1871. This is what my Granny had listed in her bible. Plus this is what is shown on her tombstone at Hickory Hill. I hope this helps. Let me know if this connects in your Millers! That would be nice. As for Mattie Carter, I am sorry, but I don't have information in my tree on her. ----- Original Message ----- From: "jsmince" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, February 10, 2003 7:14 PM Subject: Re: [TNMACON] Surnames - CARTER > Lisa, > > Hello, I am related to the Millers of Allen Co.,Ky. but I don't have this > Eliza A.
