THOMAS W. MILLER was born December 3, 1811, in Madison County Ky., and is a 
son of Daniel Miller and Susana Miller, nee Woods.  These parents removed from 
Virginia to Kentucky near the close of the last century, the former being a 
native of Albemarle County, where he was born in 1764, and the latter a native 
of Nelson County, Va. They settled on a farm eight miles from Richmond, Ky., 
where their lives were passed. Daniel Miller was a Jeffersonian Democrat. He 
was long known as Maj. Miller, a title derived from his official commission as 
a major of Kentucky militia. He served three terms in the Kentucky 
Legislature, from Madison County, and died in that county in 1841. They had 
ten children: Mary, Robert, John (who was killed at the battle of Richmond, 
Ky.), James, Elizabeth, Susan (Hume), Margaret (Shackelford), Malinda 
(Shackelford), Thomas W. and Christopher Miller. Thomas W. Miller, of 
Stanford, is the only surviving member of this family. He was married in 
Madison County, in 1841, to Miss Mary J. Hocker, a daughter of Col. Nicholas 
Hocker, and they were residents of Madison County until 1864, when they 
removed to Lincoln County. They reared but one child, S. Malinda, the wife of 
J. S. Owsley, of Lincoln County.
