MRS. MARGARET MILLER
Margaret Miller, widow of Emson Miller, late of Schley County, Georgia, was 
born on the Cumberland River, near nashville, tenn., on the 4th day of March, 
1796.  She was a daughter of William Harden, who died near Nashville, in 
1797.  Her mother moved and settled in Columbia county, Georgia, in 1808.  In 
1812 she married William Binion, with whom she lived until 1824--raising to be 
grown, from her last marriage, two children.  In 1833 she attached herself to 
the Primitive Baptist church at Piney Grove, in Columbia county.  In 1834 she 
married Emson Miller, then of Monroe county, where she went; and in 1836 moved 
to Marion county, and put in her letter at Philippi Church, where she kept her 
membership until the forming of Prosperity church, in Taylor county, about 
1852, where she remained until about 1862; having lost her second husband on 
the 27th of December, 1861.  She then moved her membership to Talbot county.  
She raised two children by her second marriage--all of whom preceded her to 
the grave, except one son, John H., who was with her when she breathed her 
last on the 2nd of December.1882.  Her age was 86 years, 7 months and 28 
days.  All who knew her, doubt not but she is now at rest with the children of 
God.  The above written by Brother Miller, of his dear mother, who was a 
Baptist beloved by all the brotherhood of this section.
