Revolutionary War patriot and son of 1st Lieutenant & Adjutant, Elijah Miller, and Ann (Fisher) Miller. He died in camp of disease at age 16 - as did his brother, John. The two brothers died on the same day, and both served in the same regiment with their father who, just four months earlier, was wounded at Hell Gate (NY) and died soon after in the days leading up to the Battle of Brooklyn.
