I have done a lot of research on Millard, but have yet to find his parents. I suspect that he was without parents early on. In 1860, when only 11 years old, he was working for Joseph W. H. Costler. Mr. Costler's sister, Sarah E. Costler/Sherrill, was the wife of Judge Joseph D. Sherrill. Millard married Laura Jane Sherrill, the daughter of Judge Sherrill.
Millard was an attorney at law. Just before he became ill, he was promoted to a judgeship. He was 65 years of age when he died, and was a judge only a very short amount of time. What he died from is unknown.
From the obituary, he would have been 4 years old, when moving to Griffin. Spalding County, itself, was made up from parts of three other counties and actually became a county in 1852.
If you have any information on this family, please contact me. Millard's wife, Laura Jane Sherrill was my GGGrandfather's daughter.
