Posted on: Hampshire County, WV Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/WV/Hampshire/1407 Surname: Miller, Bageant, Heironimus, Krizer ------------------------- The 1880 Muskingum County, OH, census lists W.A. Miller, his wife Mary, his daughter Bertha, and Dora, his sister. This sister (sic), Dora, is 12 years old. All listed in this household were born in either VA or WV. The head of household is my great grandfather, known to me as Amos Miller. His wife is Mary Elizabeth (Sirbaugh) Miller. Bertha is my grandmother, Bertha Estella (Miller) Stickley. Dora Miller, born in 1868 in WV, is listed as a girl. Is Dora really a boy? The Miller family, genealogical records reveal, have/has used the name Dora as a boy's name. For example, Dora Stephen Miller, and Dora Elmer Eaton. There are others. What does the 1870 Hampshire County, WV, census show? Dora Miller's father is Stephen Miller. Dora's mother is Sarah Ann (Heironimus) Miller; she is Stephen's second wife and was the widow of John W. Bageant when she married for the second time. Stephen was a widower when they married in 1852. So, is there anyone out there in cyberspace who knows the answer to the question? Does Amos have a younger brother or sister?
