If you are interested in Frances Miller and Thomas Hodges, they had 11 children. LOTS of descendants. Thought you might like to know that the Muellers/Mullers have been traced to Henrich Mueller b. ca. 1612 in Gerichtasschoffe, Germany. I'll be happy to share information. connie

Frederick Miller of Maury County, Tn.
By Clovis E. Miller
Frederick, son of John Frederick and Anna Maria (Arnd) Miller, was probably born about 1751 near the line separating Patrick and Henry Counties in Virginia.
His name appeared on a list of tithables (taxable individuals) for Halifax County, Virginia during the period 1782-1809. On April 12, 1787, Frederick married Mary
Frances Carter of Halifax County. They were the parents of at least ten children, who were:
Anderson, Vincent, Richard, Frances, Patsey, Giney 'Jane', John F., Elizabeth, Ewell and Charlotte Miller. On June 26, 1790, a deed was recorded in Halifax County (DB14/636) for 200 acres of land on Birch Creek which Frederick Miller purchased from James Fears. On April 22, 1805, another deed was recorded (DB21/25) whereby Frederick Miller & c. sold 100 acres of land to Spencer Carter. [His wife's brother]
The Halifax County list of tithables for the period 1805-1809 show Frederick Miller's household with two tithables, indicating a son born prior to 1789. Available census records show the oldest son, listed above, to have been Anderson Miller, born about 1792, so there may have been one additional son in Frederick Miller's household.
The 200 acres on Birch Creek appear to have been sold to a William James on September 27, 1813 (DB24/374, 467) just prior to the family's departure for Maury County, Tennessee where Frederick's elder brother, Harman Miller, had already taken up residence. In a letter to Don Brown of Toledo, Ohio, Jane A. Miller, a descendant of Frederick, stated that she had found reference to him in Maury County, Tennessee Court Records, as early as August 1814. We also know from court records that Frederick Miller was a buyer at the estate sale of one O.P. Nicholson on October 28, 1815 in Maury County. Frederick Miller first appeared on the Maury County tax rolls in 1816, and died intestate, on his farm there in the Fall of 1827.
Anderson Miller, the oldest known son of Frederick and Mary Frances (Carter) Miller, was born about 1792 in Virginia (per, the 1850 Maury County, Tennessee Census). Though we do not presently have a marriage record for him, we know from that same census that his wife's name was Holley (b. ca. 1784 in Virginia). Selina J. Miller, born about 1826, is listed in the Anderson Miller household during the 1850 census and was probably a daughter. If so, then Anderson and Holley were married by 1824. There was a Bill of Sale recorded in Halifax County, Virginia on January 22, 1820, whereby an Anderson P. Miller bought slaves from a George A.
Wyllie (DB29/118). It is not known if this was Frederick Miller's son or not since Anderson Miller also appeared on the 1820 Maury County Census with two males and two females under 10 years of age.
Vincent Miller was married to his cousin Mildred, daughter of John Miller, and granddaughter of Harman Miller, Sr. of Maury County, Tennessee on July 14, 1828. They were the parents of at least three children, including: Alfred C.
(b. ca. 1829), Nancy Jane (b. ca. 1835) and William Rufus
Miller (b.ca. 1836). Vincent (Vinson) Miller appeared as a single individual in the 1820 Maury County Census at age 26-45 years. He apparently died about 1848 as his Last Will and Testament is recorded in W.B. B, p. 25 (1848). From this document we have learned the names of the previously named children. The Will of John Miller (1848), also names his daughter, Mildred Miller, as the wife of Vincent Miller. In that document her father left Mildred .... eighty acres of land off of my Campbell tract ... also the following negores Henry, Beck, and her child Harvey and fifty dollars ... (See Wills of Vincent and John Miller in Documents File).
Richard Miller
was born on March 7, 1799 in Halifax County, Virginia and
accompanied his parents to Maury County Tennessee about 1814. He was married in
Maury County to
Mary Polly
Alexander
(b. ca. 1802) on January 17, 1823. According to
Jane A. Miller of Memphis, Tennessee, they were the parents of seven children. Of these,
Thomas Miller
(1833-1913) is the only one who is known. He was born in Calloway
County, Kentucky.
John F. Miller
was born about 1808, probably in Halifax County, Virginia. He was
married to
Hannah Williams
in Maury County, Tennessee (Bond date: Oct. 9, 1826).
They were the parents of 11 children who were:
J.H., Jeremiah T., Martha E., Mary C.,
Susan, Amanda, N.E., John A., RebeccaT., Sarah A.
and Frances G. Miller.
Ewell Miller was the youngest son of Frederick and Mary Frances (Carter) Miller. Born about 1811, probably in Halifax County, Virginia. Married in Maury County, Tennessee on Oct. 17, 1834, to Mary W. Sladen (b. ca. 1820). They were the parents of Joseph T., William B. and Coleman Miller.
Frances Miller, was obviously an elder daughter of Frederick and Mary (Carter)Miller, for she was married to Thomas Hodges in Halifax County, Virginia and apparently lived in Caswell County, NC later, not accompany her parents to Maury County, Tennessee. On Sept. 22, 1829, Frances and Thomas Hodges gave William Miller (her brother?) of Maury County, Tennessee, Power of Attorney to secure their part of the estate of Frederick Miller (Halifax County DB37/354).
Of the other daughters of Frederick and Mary Frances (Carter) Miller, even less information is known. Patsey (
Martha) was married to James Higgs and possibly lived in
Alabama.
Gincey(Jane) was married to Evan S. Polk.
Elizabeth was the wife of Joseph Leymaster
and Charlotte was married to William Sherrod on Oct. 14, 1816, in Maury County, Tennessee.

Name:
Ancestor of Connie Spring, her son, Phil Carter & Stephanie Pletcher

Died:
I suspect she died before he went to Tennessee. His Will in Tennessee names wife, Esther.

Notes:

Halifax County, which extends to the North Carolina border, was a tobacco growing region, as it still is today. It is in the middle of Southside Virginia, in the Piedmont Pleateau of rolling hills leading to the Blue Ridge Mountains, and today it appears that this land, in the southwest corner of the county, is in the area that forms something of a
triangle between secondary state Highways #691 and #659 (the River Road), very near the present community of Paces and possibly nine or so miles southwest of the county seat, also called Halifax. On a larger scale this area is south of U. S. #360 and north of U. S. #58. The tiny town of Turbeville, once called Bloomsburg, is about four miles southeast from where Tobys Creek flows into the Dan River. Danville, in adjacent Pittsylvania County is about 25 miles southwest from this point.
