Freny was the sixth child of eleven children born to Christian G. Yoder and Barbara Y. Beiler. She married John "Hannes" Miller, Jr. in 1774 in Somerset, Pennsylvania. They had eleven children:

Yost
Daniel
David
Catherine Miller Hochstetler
Jacob
John III
Elizabeth
Isaac
Emanuel
Solomon
Elias


The last two children died single. The children who raised families all married into families with Amish-Mennonite names, nine in all. Four married Yoders, three married Troyer's, one married a Hochstetler, two married Beachy's, and one married a Gnagey. Some of course, were second or even third marriages. It was unusual that all of them moved to Ohio and stayed with the Amish-Mennonite Church. Hannes Jr., and Freny had ninety-seven grandchildren who raised families. When John Miller Jr. died, his farm was sold to Abraham Miller, son of his brother Peter. There are no remaining stones marking the graves of Hannes, Jr., and wife Freny, but it is almost certain that they are buried there, according to family custom.
