LEVI D. MILLER, farmer and merchant, Bonneauville, was born in December, 1861, 
in Carroll County, Md., son of Louis and Elizabeth (Hann) Miller, who were 
parents of two children:  Mrs. Mary E. Sherman and Levi D.  Louis Miller was a 
native of Maryland, a farmer by occupation, and died at Two Taverns, Adams Co., 
Penn., aged forty-nine years.  Our subject, who was educated in the schools of 
his native county, worked on a farm until the spring of 1883, when he embarked 
in a mercantile career, becoming a partner with Jacob Sherman, a merchant of Two 
Taverns, Penn.  They kept a general store for a year and a half, when the 
partnership was dissolved, and Mr. Miller removed to Bonneauville, this county, 
where he engaged in the same business on his own account, and has been very 
successful.  He was married here to Miss M. Ella, daughter of Michael Fiscel, a 
representative citizen of Mountjoy Township, this county.  One child has been 
born to this union-M. Edna.  Mr. and Mrs. Miller are members of the Lutheran 
Church.
