ELIJAH MILLER
A family named Miller came here from Zanesville, Ohio, in the early days and settled in the southeast part of the county. The father was serving in the home guards when the Price Raid went through and Mr. Miller was killed on the Osage river, three rifle balls through his body showing how fierce had been his encounter. He left a large family. A son Elijah Miller lived at Prescott and married Nancy Kinder, both born in Zanesville, Ohio. Of their children Phebe married H. M. Grigsby, William married Lina Hill, John married Emma Sellers, Ida married Earl Horn, Maggie married Louis Torrey, Albert E. married Bertha Torrey, Ode married Florence Bowers. Henry and Frank, brothers to Elijah Miller, served in the Sixth Kansas.
