Biography

Blacksmith, Farmer, Died of TB,

John was the firstborn child of, Jacob Warren Miller and Isabella Almorine Dicken. He was born exactly ten months after his parents wed. They named their son after their fathers: John R. Dicken and Clinton William Miller.

On 28 April 1897, John married a woman named Etta Haney from Cannon, Grayson, Texas. Their marriage was short-lived. On the 1900 census, John was once again single and living with his parents and siblings in Cannon.[1]

On the 1910 census, John is married to Bloomer Dunn, and the census taker made a note that this was John's second marriage, and Bloomer's first. A Miller family photo that was taken in the late 1890s shows John standing behind a woman who might have been Etta. On the right, is John's parents, Jacob and Bell. The photograph can be found in the images section.

John married Bloomer Victory Dunn on, 8 September 1901, in, Grayson County, Texas, USA.[2]

John passed away on, 17 January 1915, from tuberculosis. He was buried at Cannon Cemetery (Cannon, Grayson County, Texas).

His father (Jacob), daughter (Maudie), and wife (Bloomer) are now buried beside him. His mother (Isabella "Bell" is buried behind him), as well as his sister (Ester).
