Silas Miller married Mary Larimore, 21 Jun 1846, Hamilton Co IN

I believe that Mary remarried after the death of Silas - and Baird may have had children from a former marriage as well.

This child is obviously not a daughter of this Silas [she's practically the same age], but no other men of that name are known to be living in Boone Co. Strange. The marker appears to be quite old but I'm not sure as old as 1839. The stone is pictured on FindAGrave.
