This Bible I have was my grandmother's of the family,
she married Maise on Feb 14, 1906.
Contributed Jul 2006 by Marva Pringle
"These records tell the story of Nancy Stroope and her 3 husbands, John Pirkey, Abel Miller, and Hugh Stephenson, and all their descendants. The reader will see how the Millers and Scribers married back and forth. I do not have the original records, but was fortunate enough to copy them back in the '60s. I don't know who has them now. It is believed that Nancy Stroope Pirkey married Abel Miller in Tenn., and then the family went into Ouachita/Union Parishes. Some of these marriages are to be found in Ouachita Parish. I have no direct Miller line, but my Grandmother, Gussie TUBBS, whose mother was Belle HARDY, was raised by Benj. Henry Miller, Sr. and his wife Mary Elizabeth "Molly" Hardy. Molly was a sister to Belle Hardy. All of these people followed sawmill work and sort floated around Ouachita Parish Union Parish, Caldwell Parish, and even over the Ark. line into Ashley Co. I'll be happy to share any other data I have on these families." --Jan Parsons Armstrong

"To my knowledge I have no

love to hear from someone who can use this information. After these letters,

June 30th, 1849
My dear and long lost sister,
Tell Wesley that I am glad that he thought
enough of me to write to me one more. we are all well except Mr. Miller and
Thos. Mrs. Pettet departed this life the 13 May. Petet took the children off to
Ark to his parents immediately. I received a letter a few days ago from Minerva
D. Madden she said her sister Sina was dead and her sister Sarah was in the last
stages of consumption. She had a babe in Feb last and Minerva had to keep it and
Martha Madden had ran away with John Brice and got married. I suppose you have
heard long since of the death of James mother. Eddings is our preacher this
year. I saw Eliz the other day she said to tell the girls to write to Mary Ann.
Her and Collier get along badly. remember me to Brother Friend. Tell him Mr.
Miller has written to him often and he never received a line from him. Brother
Hughes brother in Lawlines on the Walker place and Hughes and his mother lives
with them. I suppose the old lady is at least eighty three years old.
Your
own faithful sister,
Nancy W. Miller

Sept 13,
1849
Dear Sister,
We are alive Mr. Miller and Thos had more or less fever
all the summer and Mr. Miller is weakly. Thos health is improving. Wm is quite
unwell at this time. It is likely Bro Friend wishes to know how the new comers
fared. As regards health they had a good deal of sickness. they were all from
Alabama except one or two families that came from Ga. now Sarah Tarkington is
deal I beleive I told you of Sinias death they say that Sarah died triumphantly.
Ben Lewis located last year and settle in Farmersville for the pirpuse of
educating their children. They are all well. sister L has a boy running about
and calls him George Lawrence. Brother Eddings is our circuit preacher this
year. Last winter he bought the old Britt Plantation. a short time since he went
up to Claiborne and married Minerva McLeroy they went on home the other day and
John Burnham was with them. He called on us and said that Tatum Wafers wife
departed this life on the 24 Aug after three or four week severe illness he did
not say what her disease was. he says Wm. P. Robinson lost a grown daughter
latterly. Doct Ridgway had a sister that lived with him Doct Ridgway James Wafer
and her was engaged to be married and james had asked for her and she died also.
Sept 26. Although we have but two children I find more to do than I can do I
done up Thomas trunk and bedding and sent him off ten miles from home to study
medicine with a physician. Thos education did not gp to suit me I had rather
much rather he would have stayed at college long and he would of been willing if
his Pa had of been as persistent as me but he found that his pa could be
persuaded my family with the exception of Wm consists of Owenses Mary John and
Wm Owens the son of old James Owens he was in all the Mexican War he went from
the military institution in Kentucky in the on holding office of a cadet and
from some act during the war was promoted to 1st lt. and after the war he went
on a Man or War I believe I told you Jame Owens had run off. Mary is called the
handsomest young lady in all the country especially as far as figure is
concerned. the Alabamans some of them that are religious respectable and wealthy
and one brother Jameses old acquainances have come and offered themselves to
Mary and if could of been pleased I should of and her uncle was more than
willing. Little Bill as old Mrs. Clady used to call him says he is very glad
that she is so careless about getting married. Louisiana and Louisa must write
to me. Mary Ann Scriber corresponds with me from Bastrop where she is going to
school. a horse trampt on Elizas foot last May and she has scarcely walked ever
since. from all accounts Eliza and Colier lives a miserable life. You no Mrs.
Cillam Eliza Troy married Burl Jones she had a son the same age of my Wm all the
living child she had he died very suddenly not long since and she lies very low
with chronic diareer George Caldwell the Steam Boat Capt died from disipation on
18th and now my dear sister, Nancy W. Miller PS I have received a letter from
Margaret Wafer she says her father has been verry sick and has got well but weak
and he is going to Taxes for his health and is going to take his son Thos with
him. Mr. Miller went out to Farmersville yesterday he went with Mr. Bartlette as
a family meeting for Mr. B. to administer of Capt Caldwells estate. He took
dinner with sister Lewis they were all well. She said when I wrote to remember
her to you NWM
