Looking for Joe MILLER (b. 1879) New York, Oklahoma, Texas, Locomotive Fireman
Looking for information regarding my great grandfather Joe MILLER b. abt 1879 in New York. He married Pearl Amanda SIMMONS in Cashion, Kingfisher County, Oklahoma in May 1909. They had two children Jessie Pauline MILLER and Alice Charlotte MILLER in Texas. Joe worked for the railroad and was a member of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Brakemen around 1914 working near Witchita Falls, Texas. He left the family around 1914/1915. His father may have come from Germany and his mother from France. He has at least one sister, but I don't know her name. I would like to know what happened to him after he left his family. If any of this information sounds like someone from your family, I would like to correspond with you.
