John is the first born child of Jacob and Isabel Miller. He was born exactly ten months after his parents were married.

John moved with his family to Cannon, Texas from Kentucky at the age of 10-years-old. He finished school at the tenth grade and became a blacksmith like his father. This is written on the 1900 Census. Shortly after, John married 17-yr-old, Bloomer Dunn on September 8, 1901 (See copy of marriage index in gallery.); they had 7 children. Rumor is that John died of an illness. To my knowledge, there is no death certificate or it burned during the fire at the Sherman Courthouse.

--John and Bloomer possibly met at church in, Cannon, Texas or, Sunday night at the Cannon General Store. The store was a regular meeting place for young couples.

--Update. John's obituary has been found. He died after 11 days of battling tuberculosis. Judging from the article, he was at a hospital. Possibly, St. Vincent's in Sherman.
