DAVID MILLER was born in Nelson Co. Ky., July 13, 1793.  His father, 
Jacob Miller, was a native of Pennsylvania, and, it is believed, was of 
German extraction.  He emigrated to Kentucky, in 1785, and settled in 
Nelson county.  All his family were Baptists, as are most of his 
numerous posterity.  The subject of this sketch professed religion and 
united with Otter Creek (now Rolling Fork) church, in what is now LaRue 
[sic] county, in 1809.  He was licensed to preach, in November, 1835.  He was 
now in his 43rd year, and the development of his gifts was so slow, that 
he was not ordained till August, 1838, at which time he was solemnly set 
apart to the full work of the ministry, by Johnson Graham, D. S. Colgan, 
Horatio Chandler and John Miller.  He was soon called to the care of the 
Middle Creek church, in LaRue [sic] county, and Good Hope church, in Taylor 
county.  To the former he preached 20 years, in which time 71 converts 
were baptized into its fellowship; the latter he served 19 years, and 
baptized for its membership over 100 converts.  He preached to several 
other churches, during briefer periods.  Of him G. H. Hicks, one of his 
co-laborers says:  "Brother Miller possessed only ordinary talents, but 
was blessed with extraordinary zeal and deep-toned piety.  He was 
generally foremost in contributions to benevolent objects.  He was an 
indefatigable laborer in the cause of his Master."  After suffering 
severely with dyspepsia, nearly twenty yers, and from dropsy, about 
three years, he died of a violent attack of pneumonia, March 20, 1872.  
His faithful wife, with whom he had lived nearly 56 years followed him 
to his final rest, the 7th of May, of the same year.
