Miller was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, March 2nd, 1867: In 1881 she moved with her family to Mandan, North Dakota, where she graduated from high school, and where, on November 27, 1900, she was married to I. E. Peterson. Mr. and Mrs. Peterson moved to Devil's Lake, North Dakota in 1905, coming to Payette with their son Everett, in 1909. Mrs. Peterson was a woman who soon made her presence felt in the community where she made her home. She was a member of the Presbyterian Church, of the P. E. O. and of the Order of the Eastern Star, as well as of the Portia Club. An accomplished musician, she conducted a very successful, and , to her pupils, most profitable music class, until ill health forced her to relinquish it. She was a prominent social leader, forming many close friendships, and what is rare of any in her position, making no enemies. Besides her grief stricken husband, Mrs. Peterson is survived by one son Everett. When about three years ago, Mrs. Peterson's condition first became serious, her husband took her to the Mayo Brothers Hospital, for treatment. She returned apparently much improved in health, but has since then been to Rochester twice. It was at the Mayo Hospital that she passed away on January 14, 1926. Mrs. Peterson is survived by her grief stricken husband, one son, Everett, who is in his senior year at Berkeley College, California, and one brother, Mr. Miller of Mandan, North Dakota. It is in those mourner that our sympathies go out with heart felt sorrow. Funeral services were conducted by the Rev. Thomas Ashworth at St. James Church on Tuesday afternoon and interment was made in Riverside cemetery.
