MARGARET MILLER

  Mrs. Margaret (Doerfler) Miller, widow of the late Henry W. Miller, died of 
cancer at the home of her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. William Ball, in 
Cincinnati, Ohio, on Friday, Jan. 2, at the age of 77 years, 8 months and 12 
days.
  Having been born in Nurnberg, Germany, April 21, 1853, she came to this 
country in her early years and after her marriage to Henry W. Miller of 
Johnsburg, Somerset County, Pa., she and her husband resided on a farm in 
Northampton Township near Johnsburg until the death of Mr. Miller about 16 years 
ago, after which she made her home with her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and 
Mrs. William Ball in Cincinnati.
  Funeral services were conducted at the funeral home of Mack Johnson in 
Cincinnati, by her pastor, Rev. Littman of the Lutheran Church, of which she was 
a faithful member all her life.
  As a wife and mother, neighbor and friend, she was all that one could wish and 
very highly respected by all who knew her.  Her body was placed in a crypt in 
the funeral home of Mack Johnson in Cincinnati, to remain till late spring or 
early summer, when it will be moved to its final resting place in the cemetery 
at Johnsburg, Pa.
  She is survived by the following children: Henry and George Miller, of 
Findlay, Ohio; Mrs. Frank Protzman and John Miller, of Pittsburgh; Mrs. William 
Ball and Miss Rose Miller, of Cincinnati; Miss Anna Miller, of Windber, and 
Martin Miller, of Somerset; also by 16 grandchildren and three great-
grandchildren.  Her husband and one son preceded her to the grave.
