Biography

Milton's birth year, about 1842, is shown by his Draft Registration for the Civil War. ^[1]

Milton Anderson married Sarah C. Ferguson in Brown County, Illinois on 23 October 1873. ^[2]

Death Record: 1 Aug 1937, Hidalgo Co., Texas. NOTE: Death certificate says his father was William Anderson. However, Milton's wife is listed as Sarah and he was born in KY. The death certificate for his son J. R. Anderson definitely shows it to be the correct Milton because James R. Anderson's parents are listed as Milton Anderson and Sarah Ferguson. ^{[3] [4]}
