I am aware that a profile in FamilySearch appears to give the parents of the subject of this profile. After careful consideration of the possibility, I suspect that the FamilySearch ID refers to a composite person made up of the person in this profile combined with a person born in Pennsylvania to a couple named Drake K. and Abigail Ann (Howe) Miller. To date, I find no conclusive proof of the lineage of the person in this profile. Aside from the aforementioned FamilySource ID, the only reference to her birth in Pennsylvania seems to be within copies of "The Name and Family of Fairchild" by Timothy Marsh Fairchild, wherein he states "I believe she was from Pennsylvania". If concrete sources are found, please advise me so I can add several generation to this line. Thank you.

Please note that in citing the 1851 and 1861 census, there are two jpg references. The first has the name and coordinates including line number. The second is a continuation of the line referenced by the first jpg and omits the name of the individual. Just look at the first one, note the line number and follow along the appropriate line in the second jpg.
