AMBROSE MILLER, son of George and Susan Miller of Lower Windsor Township, was 
born February 19, 1860, and passed his boyhood on the farm, attending school 
during the winters.  From the age of eighteen years until his majority, he served 
an apprenticeship at blacksmithing with Henry S. Heindle of Hellam Township.  In 
1881, he came to the village and worked for a year for James Ray, whom he then 
bought out, and is now receiving an encouraging patronage in custom work.
