**********************************************************************

Fred F. Miller, well known pharmacist of Warrensburg, was born in 
Illinois in November, 1864.  His father, Dr. John G. Miller, was born
in Pennsylvania.  He came to Johnson County in 1867 and located in
Warrensburg and opened a drug store at 126 North Holden street.  Dr.
John G. Miller was united in marriage with Louisa J. Allred and to
this union were born the following children: Mrs. Lizzie Mitchell,
deceased; Fred F., the subject of this review; Matie, a graduate of
the Warrensburg State Normal School, is a teacher in the government
service in Porto Rico; Ivory, in the employ of the Kansas City 
"Journal", Kansas City, Mo.; Mrs. Mary Beck, Kansas City, Mo.; John
G., Jr., who is associated with Fred F. in the drug business; and Mrs.
Daisy Reed, Kansas City, Missouri.  Dr. John G. Miller continued in
the drug business until 1878, when his son, Fred F., bought him out
and continued the business, the store now being located at 313 North
Holden street.  The death of Louisa J. (Allred) Miller occurred in
July, 1916.  Mrs. Miller was a native of Illinois.  Dr. Miller now
makes his home with his son, Fred F.  Each day he makes a visit to
the store of his son.  Fred F. Miller attended the Warrensburg State
Normal School and the Kansas City Business College.  After completing
school he purchased the drug store from his father with whom he was
associated in the drug business for some time.  Mr. Miller has seen 
the time when the principal business portion of Warrensburg was cov-
ered with timber.  He has watched Warrensburg grow from a village into
a city and he has always cheerfully given the heartiest support to
every worthy enterprise which has for its object the ultimate good of
the community.  Mr. Miller has a well kept store and he carries a 
clean, up to date line of drugs.  He enjoys a large patronage of well
pleased customers.  In 1896, Fred F. Miller and Emma Volk, of Warrens-
burg, were united in marriage.  To this union was born one son, Frank-
lin G., who was born in 1906.  Emma (Volk) Miller died in 1913 and was 
laid to rest in the Warrensburg cemetery.  Fred F. Miller and son now
make their home with Dr. Miller.
