Benjamin was born about 1860. He is the son of Stephen Miller and Luenza Martin. There are two family stories that have been passed down over the years. One being that Lissie, Stephen Miller’s second wife was mean some how to Stephen Miller’s first two sons Benjamin and William. As a result, Benjamin and William left home. This was passed down from both the Benjamin and William side of the families. The other story was that Benjamin and William were to get either money or land when their father Stephen Miller died. Lissie Miller’s second husband, Romulus Benj, put an end to Benjamin and William getting anything from Stephen Miller’s estate. So Benjamin and William left home.
After leaving home Benjamin Miller ended up around Vernon in Washington County, Florida. On December 24, 1881 Benjamin Miller married Eliza Anderson. Eliza Anderson was the daughter of Willis Anderson and Elizabeth Simmons of Washington County, Florida. This information is on the 1880 US Census from Washington County, Florida. Willis Anderson and Elizabeth Simmons were both born in Alabama according to the above listed census. [1]
Buried in Pleasant Grove United Methodist Church Cemetery, Hinsons Crossroads, Washington Co., Florida
