REUBEN MILLER farmer, P.O. Bedminster, is a grandson of 
Jacob Miller, who was a resident of Tinicum township.  He 
died there about twenty years ago, aged 73.  His wife was 
Barbara Huffman, who died in 1872, aged 75.  Their son, 
William, was father of Reuben, and was born on the place 
where his father died, February 17, 1818, and is now living 
in Bedminster.  His wife was Anna Maria Welder, who was born 
August 20, 1820, and died at the place named.  Their 
children were:  Henry, Sarah, and Sylvester, deceased; 
Barbara Ann, wife of Reuben Fluck, of this township; Mary 
Amanda, wife of Abraham Leatherman, also of this township; 
Leanna, wife of Joseph Keller, in Philadelphia; William W., 
in Doylestown township; Jordan, on the homestead; Emma J., 
wife of Abraham Wisler, of Rockhill; Minerva, wife of Henry 
Keeler, in Hilltown; and Reuben, who was born October 25, 
1848.  He lived on the home place until 1884, when he bought 
and removed to the farm where he now lives.  September 19, 
1874, he was married to Amanda, daughter of Joseph and Mary 
Hockman, of this township.  She was born February 6, 1854.  
To their union four children have been born: Harvey, who 
died in infancy; Estella, Mary, Amanda, and Jonas Warren.  
Mr. Miller is a member of the Keller Reformed church, and 
his wife of the Second Deep Run Mennonite church, and he is 
regarded by his neighbors as a man of probity and sterling 
character.
