How the Millers came to be in Australia we still haven't discovered!!!
Maybe they swam???
This is definitely one of my brick walls!
From detective work thus far I believe that George & his brother Thomas arrived via Tasmania as Thomas resided, married and had children there. After his wife's death he moved to Bingara, NSW to live near his brother George.

| NOTES | |
| 1 | Geo R Miller registered birth of Charles; previous issue: 3 others, living. |
| 2 | An A. O. Hayles registered the birth of Frederick and stated that the previous issue were: 5 girls and 5 boys. I believe that A. O. Hayles did us a favour here and supports the theory that this particular George Robert is the same father as the first lot. If you add in the girl Mary in Tasmania and include Mary Ann Brown and you have 10 children. i.e. Jane, Mary, Caroline, Elizabeth & Mary (from Mary Ann Brown nee Jones) you get five girls. Thomas, George R, Henry, Charles & William make up the five boys. Whoever this Hayles person was probably had no idea that Mary Ann was not the mother of all the kids.... Food for thought.... |
| 3 | Geo R Miller registered birth of David; previous issue: Henry 8, Charles 6, William 4, Frederick dec'd. |
| 4 | The range in years for Williams birth is because the Clerk at Rookwood Asylum where he died states that he was 62 in 1924. But on David's birth cert in 1863, George (father) stated that he was 4 in March that year, which would make his birth year 1858/1859. |
| 5 | Mary Ann Miller born 6 Feb 1839, Launceston, Tas. Parents Mary Ann & George Robert Miller...we must bare in mind that George's brother Thomas lived in Tas. |
| MISCELLANEOUS NOTES |
| MARRIAGE #1 OR NOT? George Robert Miller married Mary Anne LYNCH 30/1/1837 (M1837/1826-21), both free, witnessed by Margaret Lynch, Joseph Henry Winchester. Mary Ann Miller died 20/2/1849 (D1849/323-117), aged 27, arrived Marq. Wellington. Occ. Innkeeper. |
| MARRIAGE #2 OR NOT? George Robert Miller married Harriet COOPER 25/6/1849 (V1849/735-79), listed as a Bachelor. Witnesses were Thomas Miller (his brother) of Hobart Town & William Wade of Maitland. Harriet Miller died 4/5/1851 - at the White Conduit House Inn, aged 19 yrs + 4 months, Wife of George Miller. (D/notice in Maitland Mercury 7-5-1851). The witness here, I believe is Thomas Tringham Miller, George Robert's brother who was married in Tasmania in 1845 to Mary Ann Usher (M1567-7) at Hobart Town. On Thomas' death certificate in 1893, Marion Horne (Mary Ann nee Brown) stated that Thomas had been in the colony of NSW for 20 years. She also mistakenly said that his father was her step father George Robert Miller.

Mary Ann Miller formerly BROWN nee JONES died 1897 (D1897-3). Informant: Henry Miller, son.

* If I was a child to any of the above I would have been confused regarding my mothers maiden name!! No doubt it was no different then, although why Henry and Charles put Singleton is beyond me, especially when Mary Jones was still alive, unless George played up with yet another Mary Ann??
*** In 1849 when Mary Ann Lynch died, George would have found it hard raising 5 or 6 children on his own so would have promptly remarried, then his 2nd wife Harriet died 2 years later. He probably persevered with the

1. Aunt Miller died 4 Aug 1886 at 12.04am. No idea who this is.
2. George Robert Miller born 13th May 1815 (2 years out s/be 1813).
3. Thomas Miller born 11 June 1811.
4. Saw Mrs M A Miller 13 March 1895, Wednesday 9pm train, West end of Tamworth.
5. Elizabeth King born 4 Feb 1847.
Before this information presented itself I was leaning towards several different George & Mary's but now I am narrowed down to the possibility of 2 myself.
Bare in mind that Evelyn is the daughter of Elizabeth & Reuben King.
In all of the above instances the'Robert' is the key I believe. I also believe that George may have done his
WHAT DO YOU THINK????? THREE GEORGE'S????
