Individual Details

Rachel Miller

(12 Apr 1819 - 29 Feb 1892)



Ancestry atDNA shows two supposedly matches (less than 20cM) to descendants of Rachel. However, when the lineage is examined- the matches are through a stepchild of Rachel's descendant, making such a match impossible.

The Indiana Marriage database has a marriage for Rachel Miller to James M. Hamilton, 31 Aug 1843. But that must be a different Rachel Miller. When John Miller's pension for his son Israel's Civil War service was suspended, testimony indicated his sister Rachel Larimore's pension was also called into question.

16 Jan 1840. Marion Co, IN. Allen Larimor married Rachel Miller. Her father was Wm. Miller.

In 1889, Allen W. Larrimore gave deposition for John Miller - he must been Rachel's husband.
