JOSEPH A. MILLER, grocer; P. O. Millersburg; was born Feb. 19, 1831; he
is the youngest son of Alexander Miller, who was the youngest child of
Major John Miller, the founder of Millersburg; Alexander was the father
of the following children: John, died in the South in his young manhood;
Wm. McClelland, James McClure, Mary McClure, died in young womanhood;
Robert A., Joseph A., Ann, also died in young womanhood; Martha Harris,
now a Mrs. Judge Wm. H. Savage, residing at Shackelford, Texas, and
America J., now a Mrs. Alexander Butler.  Our subject, in his youth,
received all the advantages of education of his day, attending the
Transylvania University two years, and one year at the Kentucky Military
Institute.  In the Fall of 1861 he enlisted in the 9th Ky. Cavalry, under
Gen. Morgan, serving until the surrender.  He was very enthusiastic in
the Southern cause, and took upon himself the perilous duty of furnishing
supplies and clothing for their troops, until a reward of $500 was
offered for his body dead or alive; at the time they made the search for
him he enlisted in the service, and for a feat of bravery upon the field,
in rescuing a fallen comrade, he received a furlough home.  He was
married Dec. 14, 1871 to Miss Sally M. Best, of Mason County (see hist.
of Dr. Best).  They have no children, are members of the M.E. Church
South, and he one of the town trustees, and a prominent merchant of
the village, and a highly esteemed gentleman.  His father was born in
1796, and died at 74 years of age; he was twice married, the second
time to Ann C. Pelham, an aunt of Major Pelham's, who was distinguished
in military circles.
