His wife was Anna Catharina Fiedler (1740-1803), who is buried at Nazareth Lutheran church. Although Hermannus is not listed in the cemetery records book, we suspect that he was buried there also, based on an entry in the Moravian records regarding his funeral. His will, dated June 3, 1816 and probated March term 1818, names his son Harmon Miller and his wife, who remain on his land, and a total of fourteen grandchildren, identified as children of Harmon Miller and Godfrey Miller respectively.<P> <HR> <H4>Second Generation</H4> Children of Hermannus Miller and Anna Catharina Fiedler<BR> Harmon Miller (1777-1813) m. <A HREF="shouse.html">Salome Schauss</A> (1780-1866)<BR> Godfrey or Gottfried Miller, probably the one who m. 1) Catharine Hempelman in 1796 and 2) <A HREF="helsabk.html">Susannah Helsabeck</A> in 1803, widow of <A HREF="meyer.html">Philip Jacob Meyer</A><P> <HR> <H4>Third Generation</H4> Children of Harmon Miller and Salome Schauss<BR> Heinrich Miller (1803-1863) m.
