James married Nancy Elizabeth Tolley 29 Feb 1904 in Raleigh, WV. His tombstone and many records show a birth date of 1880, but he is listed in the 1880 Census with the age of 1 year. The Census was taken on the 14th of June, 1880, so if he was born in 1880, he could not have been on it. Also, his younger brother, Lewis M. Milam is on the same Census with the age of 1/12, or one month old.

He and his wife "Nannie Milam" raised 13 children. They were justly famous for their family reunions.
