According to Arthur Miller's will recently exhibited on this List a will written 25 July 1750 he bequeathed to "Humphrey Younger; Nehemiah Younger, son of Humphrey and Ann". It appears Ann was Ann Miller and daughter of Arthur Miller. The first evidence of Mary as Humphrey's wife is 27 Nov 1753 when Humphrey sold his land to John Kennard. By 1759 Humphrey and Mary were living in Frederick County MD. Source: Maryland Patent Index, Frederick County MD; Cert 316 for 1/2 acre [BC&GS #12 & 13, pps. 477 & 489 respectively] From these records, I conclude that Ann was the first wife of Humphrey (Jr.) who was deceased by the writing of her father's will. That leads me to believe that Humphrey remarried sometime between 1750 and 1753.
