BLUFORD JACKSON MILLER was born January 15, 1819, in Warren County.  His
father, Adam Miller, was a native of Virginia, of Wythe County, and came
to Kentucky when a young man.  He married Miss Elizabeth Runner, whose
parents were Virginians by birth, and later residents of Warren County,
Kyk.  Adam Miller was a farmer by occupation, and died in 1847.  His
family consisted of nine children, three of whom are yet living:  Thomas,
Margaret and Bluford J.  Jacob Miller, the grandfather of Buford J., as of
Dutch descent, and born in Virginia.  He was a farmer and spent the later
years of his life in Warren County, Ky.  Bluford J. Miller passed the
first years of his life on the farm where he was born, and in the old log
schoolhouse on Ray's Branch learned the rudiments of the three R's; byond
that his education is self-acquired and practical.  He is a self-made man,
started in life without pecuniary aid; managed his business successfully,
and is now the proprietor of a fine farm of 300 acres of valuable land,
one-third of which is under cultivation and well improved.  He attributes
much of his success in life to the help and encouragement of his wife,
Catherine, to whom he was united in marriage December 28, 1848.  She is a
daughter of Samuel and Margaret Chastine, of Logan County, Ky. Mr. and
Mrs. Miller are blessed in their union by the birth of eight sons and four
daughters, ten of whom are living:  Mary E., Robert G., Frank J., Elihu,
Samuel A., Virginia, Elijah N., Thomas H., Joeseph E. and Ella J., all of
whom are members of the Methodist Episcopal Church, of which the parents
are life-long members.  Mr. Miller is a Master Mason in Elijah Upton
Lodge, No. 373.  Politically he is a Democrat.
