Orphan’s Court proceedings of Newcastle County, DE (975.11P2):
Index:
p. 23: MILLER: 22 May 1746. James Miller to court as administrator of estate of Robert Morrison, taylor, dec’d.
p. 139: MILLER: 20 Feb 1760. Petition of Mary Blackburn (sister and co-heir with Abraham Miller, Robert Miller and the children of James Miller, dec’d) of Samuel Miller of Newcastle Hd, yeoman, dec’d, who died intestate; she receives 1/5 of the estate.
Newcastle Land Records:
Newcastle Hd, Samuel Miller, son of Donald Miller deceased, named in a land deal dated 21 Feb. 1749.
So if you combine these records, it looks like there is an Abraham Miller, son of Samuel Miller, son of Donald Miller, with Abraham's siblings being Mary, Robert and James.
More puzzle pieces!

More Miller's To Sort Out!

My love of genealogy started when I was a child. I remember spending hours looking through my parents' bottom dresser drawer filled with old family photos. Dad would come in and sit down on the floor with me. He would tell me of the people and places, stories of his childhood in New Braunfels, Texas, and memories of his parents and grandparents. I felt so close to these people, and this naturally flowed into a love of genealogy in later years. Thanks Dad!
