Daughter - Mary Ann (Hoy) Miller

Born - 1844

Husband - William H. Miller

WILLIAM H. MILLER resides in Spring township, Centre county, and
comes of a family whose history has been long and honorably interwoven
with that of Pennsylvania.  His paternal grandfather, a tanner by
trade, removed from Berks county to Centre county, and for many years
was a well-known citizen here.  The father of our subject, Henry
Miller, was born in 1817, and died in 1881, at the age of sixty-four. 
He married Miss Catherine Meiss, and they had a family of five
children, the subject of this sketch being the eldest; the second child
died in infancy, and the others are Sarah J., John A. and Anna E.
  No event of special importance occurred during the boyhood and youth
of our subject, who was reared on the home farm and early became
familiar with its duties.  He assisted in the labors of the fields
through the summer months, and in the winter season attended the public
schools, where he acquired a good practical English

education that has been supplemented by reading, experience and
observation.  He married Miss Mary Ann Hoy, a daughter of John and
Susan (Hoy) Hoy.  Her father, who was born in 1804, departed this life
in 1864 at the age of sixty years, and his wife, whose birth occurred
in 1811, was called to the home beyond in 1858.  By trade he was a
miller, and followed that occupation for many years.  In early manhood
he came to Centre county, and resided in Jacksonville, Walker township. 
To Mr. and Mrs. Miller were born four children, only two of whom are
now living: Sarah E., the eldest, is the wife of Charles H. Garis, and
has four children; Catherine E. is the wife of Charles E. Wetzel, to
whom were born twin girls, one of whom died in infancy; Margaret M.
sustained injuries in a railroad accident which resulted in her death
when twenty-three years of age.  She was on her way to Bellefonte to
receive instructions preparatory to entering the Church and taking the
communion, when struck by a passenger train.  For three days she
suffered most intensely, but bore her pain with heroic fortitude.  At
length death came to her release, and on November 15, 1893, her young
life was ended.  The fourth child of the family was a son, who
throughout his short life was a cripple.  He passed away in his
fifteenth year, and the loss of these children has proved the greatest
affliction that has ever come to the parents, but they live in the
certainty of a happy reunion beyond the grave.
  Farming has been the life work of Mr. Miller, and his affairs are
ably conducted, so that success has come to him in return for his
diligence, close application and perseverance.  He exercises his right
of franchise in support of the Republican party, but has neither sought
nor desired political preferment.  He and his wife are members of the
Reformed Church, and are most consistent Christian people, ever ready
to defend the weak against the strong and aid the needy or distressed.
