Many of the above family members are buried at Enon Baptist Church between Pickens and Easley. Martha Ann Miller Epperson (on the OPD list) is a daughter of Ernest Lovridge Miller, and I am a grandaughter of George Henry Alexander Miller through his son, Cody Morris Miller, II. As an added note, Morris Monroe Miller bought a leather-bound book and gave it to Keowee Baptist Church for their records. This book is now in the Furman University Archives, Greenville, SC. I will be happy to share any of the info that I have on the above family and preceding generations. Godspeed... Dolores Miller Pringle Myrtle Beach, SC
