Jeanette J. Miller was born on Oct 2, 1800 in Chester County South Carolina, . Her parents were Robert Josiah Miller and Jannet White. She married James Henry II on Jun 12,1822 in Chester, South Carolina.
Jeanette Miller was born in North Carolina October 1800. Instead of migrating on to Alabama as his other brothers had done, James returned to Ireland for his mother and sister. We assume that his father had died by this time.
Jeanette's father, Robert Miller, was born in Ayrshire County Scotland in 1751. He was well educated and of brilliant mind. Having come to America just before the American Revolution, he lost his leg in the Battle of 1781—Just before Cornwallis surrendered.
Jeanette, James' wife, was tall, brown-haired, quiet and deliberative. She was well liked, though more retiring than her husband. All of the older people with whom I have talked had one thing in common to say of her: -She was such a good woman!' Her life was characterized by her sincere and rigid Presbyterian faith.
Mrs. C. C. Dulaney of Bryan, Annie Young, was with great- grandmother Henry, Jeanette Miller, the afternoon before she died.
Jeanette, then eighty-one years of age, had been spinning during the afternoon while Annie, her fifteen-year-old grand-daughter, helped her. James had been dead six years. About five o'clock the old woman spoke of being cold and Annie helped her put away her spinning. She was put to bed and that night, as she slept, she passed away.
James Henry and Jeanette Miller have left a marvelous heritage for their descendants. Although not given qualities to rise to brilliance for fame, they have inherited a happy disposition and unshakable principles.
