Samuel H. Miller, a prominent and successful agriculturist of Bedford township, was born at Miller's Station, Harrison county, Ohio. November 16, 1851, his parents being Harrison and Mary (Wheeler) Miller. The grandfather, who was of Dutch extraction and a farmer by occupation, came from Pennsylvania and passed away when his son Harrison was seventeen years of age. The latter's birth occurred in Harrison county, Ohio, in 1818, and in early life he learned the cabinetmaker's trade at Steubenville, working at that occupation for a few years. Subsequently he was employed at the carpenter's trade and, in connection with his work as a contractor and builder, carried on farming, meeting with a gratifying and well merited measure of prosperity in his undertakings. His demise occurred in 1904 and his remains were interred in the West Bedford cemetery. Miller's Station. Harrison county, was named in his honor. ...
