    Thomas Miller would have been 12 years of age when William Miller and Mary Burns left Dumbarton to settle in Lanark Co.

    On 23 March 1833 he married Elizabeth Mason at Lanark. Elizabeth was the 2nd daughter of Robert Mason and Helen Gourlie who settled in 1820 on C2 L9 Lanark twp. Robert Mason was the first school master in Lanark Village, a weaver by trade and a strict Presbyterian
    .
    Their first child, William, may have been born at Lanark, as he is recorded as being baptised at St. Andrew's, Lanark.

    Thomas and Elizabeth moved to Bathurst, with his brother, and settled on L9 Con 3 where their family grew to number ten. This property was purchased from John Munro, the eldest son of Peter Munro. and was later known as the Alex Stewart farm, front part of West half of ?b?Lot 6 C 3 Bathurst ?/b?(approximately 50 acres). The deed from John Gray is dated 3 November 1854, registered 17 Dec 1855 to John Munro, and sold 22 September 1860 to Thomas Miller for $1200, double the price John Munro paid in 1854. This property adjoined the 63 acre farm on which Peter Munro Sr. lived after moving from Dalhousie Twp.


    Elizabeth died on 27 January 1850 after giving birth to twin sons. Andrew Burns Miller was raised by his uncle George Miller. John Mason Miller was raised by his aunt Janet (Mrs. Robert Boyle) and went to Australia with them in the 1860's.
    Many members of this family went west and settled in North Dakota and Minnesota USA. My heartfelt thanks go to Clarice Bachman, wife of William Miller Stefon, of Chehalis, Washington for her tremendous effort in collecting data on this branch of the family and for the five days we spent proof reading and correcting printouts.

    Chapter 23
    WEST ALBANY TOWNSHIP
    Pages 777-787

    From the book about Wabasha Co. Minnesota
    "HISTORY OF WABASHA COUNTY"
    Compiled by Dr. L. H. Bunnell
    Published Chicago by H. H. Hill, Publishers, 1884
    Republished Currently by Higginson Books

    In the spring of 1857, Lawrence Tracy, of Irish nativity, who had previously settled in what is now Oakwood, moved to West Albany. In the same year came Sylvester and William Applegarth, of Canada; Henry Schmuser, of Holstien; Wm. Funk, and some others. In 1858 began the establishment of the Scotch settlement in the northeastern part of the township. In this year came George and William Wilson, William Duffus, Henry Glashen, Geo. And William Perry, Charles Forest, Alexander Thoirs, William Sterling, David Munro, and William Corry; these have since been followed by many others from Scotland and Racine county, Wisconsin, some also from Canada. Many of these came here poor, but all are now successful farmers, and the Scotch settlement will be found a Christian, hospitable community where peace and prosperity reigns.

    Thus we see the early establishment of three nationalities in this township, German, Irish and Scotch, and to these three the population still mainly belongs, but very few being of American descent.

    ?/u?William Miller?/b? (1762) arrived Brig George Canning 1821, Dumbartonshire and located on W L15 Con 1 Lanark Township after first drawing Lot 24 Con 2. He was accompanied by his wife and William Miller (1786)'s siblings. He later moved to Bathurst.

    ?b?William Miller?/b? arrived on Brig Prompt, 1820 located in Dalhousie, Whitelee. Son of William 1762.?u??b?

    ?u??i?William Miller & Family in Wisconsin from Charles McFadden?/u??/i?
    William V. Moore , Wisconsin Probate. A kerfuffle over his estate. ?b?Mary Miller?/b?, his wife, refused administration on his estate. ?b?Jane Ebbot?/b? petitioned for re-payment of loans totaling over $1000 - in 1885 - dating back to 1855. The notes were in her name then: ?b?Jane M. Wilson?/b?. She says that she is the sister of William's wife, Mary Miller. A great grandson petitioned in 1948 because his grandfather had been named in the will "Miller W. Moore" and his name was really "William M. Moore" There is diagram of the homestead there too.

    I do not have the diagram. I think Robert Urquhart's 4 great grand daughter may as a guess.

    Then, Mary Miller Moore died in 1898 and her parents were named as ?b?William Miller and Margaret Burns?/b?.

    So, now we know that William Miller 1786 went to the United States in 1836, was in Racine in 1844, that he had, at least, children?b? Margaret Mary, Jane, and John ?/b?with him. Jane married one husband Joseph Wilson along the way, and Mary married William V. Moore either Dec. 25 1844 or Jan. 31st 1845 - both records exist. Unfortunately, nothing further about the whereabouts of William and Margaret after the 1850 census of Wisconsin. William Miller 1786 & Mary Margaret Burns your 4 great grandparents either died before 1860 or moved on.

    Notice Diane that there is a darn gone David Miller listed as well!

    ?/b??i?JR Ernest Miller 18 May 1993?/u??/i?
    Wm. Miller & Mary or Margaret Burns were married at Kilmarnock Scotland on 13 June 1807.
    The baptismal records of their children in Scotland use one of those two christian names but never the two at one time. We have not checked her birth records to verify which is correct or whether it should be Mary Margaret Burns. It is rumoured that she is a sister of Robbie Burns the poet but never verified.
    In 1821, William Miller took his family to Greenock where they embarked for Canada settling in Lanark twp on Con 1 Lot 15 opposite his brother Andrew who had drawn a similar lot in Dalhousie twp.
    Burial records have never been located but the 1834 report on the condition of the 1820-21 Scottish settlers to Lanark and Dalhousie twps states that widow Miller is alone on L15 C1 Lanark and that the rest of the family has moved to Bathurst twp. In his diaries Robert Mason recorded that Mrs. William Miller died 13 Dec 1839. As three of his daughters were married to Miller husbands we have assumed that this was Mary Margaret Burns.
    To make a positive identification more difficult there were no less than four William Millers in Dalhousie and Lanark twps in 1834. A William Miller left L14 C2 Dalhousie in 1839 and moved to Hammond, St. Lawrence Co., New York State. Efforts to identify this man have failed to date.
    Janet, Margaret Ann & Mary, daughters of William and Mary Margaret Miller have not been identified in our research although earlier family history had indicated possible marriages to a Brownlee and a Robinson.

    ?u??i?Carol Bennett: The Lanark Society Settlers, 1991.?/u??/i?
    pg. 105 reflects the confusion of William Millers at the time. She has Andrew Miller as a son rather than a brother. Again on pg 106 there is confusion of generations.
    One of the William Millers was a member of the ?b?Glasgow Canadian Society. ?/b?Signatures of James, Andrew and William are posted on page 103. Walter Black was head of this emigration society. This group arrived in 1821 on the ship George Canning.?b?

    ?b?notes from William [6] for reference?/b?
    As part of the ?i?Glasgow Sr. Wrights was ?/i?Andrew Blair (4 people). As part of the ?i?Lanarkshire Society?/i? James Gilmour (6 persons), William Miller (1 person) and William Gilmour (1 person) sailed on Earl of Buckinghamshire, Johnston Master, departing Greenock on 29 Apr 1821 to sail to Quebec.
    Among the 1821 arrivals is Robert Mason on Lanark C2 Lot 9W, Alexander Brownlee on Dalhousie C12 L11W, and John Miller on Lanark C2 L22W.?b?
    ?/b?on the same ship, Cannnington as part of the ?i?Cambuslang Society?/i?, there was a John Miller (4 people) and a William Gourley (5 people).

    I find that one of the William Millers from Scotland, was a bachelor, and had arrived on the Commerce on June 1820 and was not located until 22 March 1821 on Lanark C7 L12W. Furthermore I discover that he was not sent out by Government but was received by authority of Commander, 22 January, 1821. A Hugh Miller, 1821 settled in Ramsay Township C10 L18 on 25 Jul 1821. He was of interest, not as a Miller but as an ancestor of Beatrice Miller Duncan who married into my husband's Duncan family.

    Another document was In this report we find that William Miller, 1820,?b? ?/b?purchased?b? ?/b?Lanark C2 Lot 13W from Wm. Brown who now owns a tavern in Perth and that William Miller is located on Dalhousie C2 Lot 14E. It seems there is a 'Brown' connection yet to be discovered in the family. A grandson of William and Elizabeth has ?i?Brown?/i? as a second name on a marriage record. It is also noted that John Blair sold Dalhousie C5 L6W to William Miller. At this point I go back to the record of births and baptism I have already gathered. I know that William Miller and Elizabeth Gilmour, are the parents of Robert, b. 3 Nov 1784, William, b. 19 Sep 1786, John, born 7 Jun 1789, and Jean b. 3 Aug 1791, all in Dumbarton, Dumbartonshire, Scotland.

    This contradicts Peter Munro document:
    Peter (age 52, a weaver) and Mary Munro and family traveled to Canada from Argyleshire Scotland in 1820 on either the ship '?b?Brook?/b?' (7 families, Transatlantic Society) departed 9 July 1820, arriving 21 Au 1820, Dougal Cowan, Master or the '?b?Prompt?/b?' (370 people, 33 families were members of Lesmahago Society), departed 4 July 1820, arriving at Quebec 4 Sep 1820, Joseph Nairn, Master.

    Traveled to Canada with Dobbie family, later the families were to intermarry.

    Residence:
    Settled on Dalhousie C1 L10. Moved to Bathurst in 1835.

    The land is described as rough and stony, and not suitable for extensive agriculture. Inspected by the author about 1934, he notes very little improvements have been made to it. Practically all the tillable land has been broken and is in crop by the present owner, but the greater portion of the acreage is still in its original state. He continues, "A good road runs along the northwest boundary of the lot from the village of Watson's Corners, which is not more than two miles away. The concession road, however, on which the farm faces has never been opened up for traffic, although there is abundant evidence to show that this road has been used to some extent in the early days. The right-of-way is now overgrown with trees and shrubbery and is altogether impassable."

    Peter Munro applied for a patent, 4 Apr 1838, as a member of the Lanark Society Settlers of 1820, for Dalhousie Twp Con 1 E1/2 Lot10. His patent had not arrived with those of the other settlers. The patent was granted 1 June 1938. On 8 July 1840 he sold the property to James MacMillan, 100 acres for ?50, who in turn passed it on to a son and daughter who later conveyed it to Charles McArthur. The property changed hands three times before being acquired by Charles Caldwell (owner in 1934).?i?
    ?/i?
    Fire raged through this part of Lanark in 1870, and in 1934 only foundations of the buildings were evident. A spring, located on the SE corner of the lot, about 25 yards from the NE boundary, close to the division road between the townships of Dalhousie and Lanark was known as the Munro spring (1934). The traveled road runs along the NW side of the farm.


    Land & Property:
    20 Jan 1835, he purchased the rear part of the W1/2 of ?b?L6 C3 Bathurst ?/b?from John McNie for ?65. It was?b? ?/b?situated about ten or eleven miles west of Perth (63 acres adjacent to front part of West half of ?b?C3?/b? ?b?L6 Bathurst ?/b?owned by son John in 1850's). The deed was registered 9 July 1845. Peter, his son, was a resident on this property.

    Peter Munro lived on this property for the rest of his life and when he died this property transferred to his youngest son Roderick, who in turn left the property to his grand-niece Mary Jane Munro.
    Peter Munro's will was witnessed by Andrew Miller and James Patterson.


    Census:

    Peter is located in Bathurst C3 L6W, he arrived from Scotland in 1820, Presbyterian, 3 born in Scotland 5 born in Canada.
