Christian Miller died
12 Jan 1796. His wife's name was Mary.
The land where the Miller farm was located is southeast from
Neersville, Loudoun Co, VA. The stone farm house, facing the
AT & T Road on the southside, was said to have been built
by one of Christian Miller's sons in 1793. Above the gable there
is an inscription that reads "1793". The Miller Burying
Ground is near the house.
A photograph of the Miller Burying Ground has the following message
written on the back of it:

Burying Ground near Hillsboro, Va., Loudoun Co., showing the

Miller with no dates remaining. Picture taken Oct. 15, 1932 by

of themselves and of every other person except Mary Miller right
of dowery during her natural life. She being the widow of Christian
Miller deceased it being free from all other titles, charges,
and incumbrences whatsoever..."
