Research Notes

There is no mention of Millie Wester's parents, nor has there been any discussion of her being related to the Hardy Wester mentioned above. See the Wester family on FamilySearch.

Some family researchers indicate that Millie may not be the mother of his 3 older children and possibly married 1st in Virginia. There are no marriage documents available to verify this information.
