Biography
From 20th century history of Butler and Butler County, Pa., and representative citizens McKee, James
Peter Miller, the grandfather, was a hardware merchant in France, his native land, and was a well-to-do citizen. The freedom of American life and its institutions appealed strongly to him, and in 1847 he emigrated to the United States, passing through Louisiana and later locating at Pittsburg, Penna., moving from there to Lancaster Township, Butler County, where he located on a farm on Yellow Creek. He and his wife [Catherine] were parents of four children, namely : Fred ; Peter; Catherine, who was the wife of Hartman Bendarm (Bendrim), both now deceased; and Catherine (Caroline), wife of Michael Flinner [1]
