MILLER FAMILY

1.    Ephraim Miller, born say 1710, was taxable in his own household in Norfolk County, Virginia, from 1731 to 1734, and a "free negro" taxable in the household of James Wilson, Sr., in the district from Deep Creek to the Bridge in 1736 [Wingo, Norfolk County Tithables 1730-50, 24, 83, 127, 175]. He may have been related to the Miller family of Maryland and Delaware. His widow may have been Elizabeth Miller, a "free Negro" who was taxable in Currituck County, North Carolina, with her daughter Johanah in 1755. They may have been the ancestors of

i. Isaac, born say 1732, a "free Negro" taxable in Currituck County in 1755. He apparently joined the Tuscarora Indian reservation in Bertie County before 12 July 1766 when he signed as one of the chief men in their lease of 8,000 acres of Tuscarora Indian land [DB L:56]. He did not sign the next lease of 1777, so he was probably one of the 155 members of the tribe who went north with them to New York State. (The remainder left in 1802).

ii. Johannah, born say 1738, taxable in her mother's Currituck County household in 1755.

iii. Judia, a taxable in Samuel Willoughby's household on the southside of Tanner's Creek in Norfolk County in 1780 [Wingo, Norfolk County Tithables 1768-80, 272].

iv. Hannah, mother of Ezekiel Miller (born about 1789) who registered as a free Negro in Norfolk County on 11 May 1810: twenty one years of age of a Yellowish complexion ... with long hair ... Born free [Register of Free Negros & Mulattos, no.3].

v. Jacob L., head of a Stokes County, North Carolina household of 1 "other free" in 1800 [NC:514].

vi. Polley, head of a Richmond City household of 1 "other free" in 1810 [VA:347].

vii. Nelly "(free)" head of a Charleston, St. Phillips & Michaels Parish household of 1 "other free" and a slave in 1790.
