1. WILLIAM1 MILLER was born 1786 in GA, and died May 1853 in Chambers Co, AL. He married ARGANT ?. She was born 1788 in GA, and died Aft. 1870 in Chambers Co, AL. Notes for WILLIAM MILLER: From census records we learn that William Miller was born in GA in 1786/1787. In 1830 he was in Hancock County, GA with wife and five daughters. In 1850 he was in Chambers County, AL with wife Margaret and granddaughter, Ann. In 1860 and 1870 wife, Argant, is a widow in Chambers Co, AL. Will probated in Chambers Co, AL In 1837 William purchased 80.3 acres from BLM from the Montgomery Land
Office. From Salem Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery - Chambers Co, AL In 1850 William owns 12 slaves - 7 females and 5 males - ages 12 - 63. He wills a total of five females to his four living daughters. That leaves two females and the five males to wife, Argant. Notes for ARGANT ?: The 1850 census for Chambers Co, AL lists the wife of William Miller as Margaret. In his will of 1853 he names her as Argant. The 1860 and 1870 census records of Chambers Co lists her as Argant. 1860 slave schedule. Argant Miller owned 6 slaves - Four females and two males. Her husband left her two females and five males. In 1870 Argant is age 84. She is living with a black family - Mittie Patterson age 30, Cynthia 7, Cellia 5, Sallie 3, Ella 2, Alice 2/12. Mittie b. GA. All children b. AL. Have not found Argant's parents or maiden name. The census records list her as being born in Georgia. In 1830 she is with her husband and five daughters in Hancock Co, GA. (Speculation - William and Argant named a daughter Argant Bass and daughter, Amanda Spights named a son Bass. Could maiden name for Argant (Margaret) be Bass?). There are several Bass' in Hancock Co, GA. but can not verify. Children of WILLIAM MILLER and ARGANT ? are:
Generation No. 2 2. MARY EMILY2 MILLER (WILLIAM1) was born Abt. 1810, and died Abt. 1836 in Hancock Co, GA. She married JAMES H. VEAL Feb 24, 1831 in Hancock Co, GA, son of NATHAN VEAL and SARAH THOMASON. He was born Abt. 1805 in Hancock Co, GA, and died Oct 1, 1892 in Hancock Co, GA. Notes for JAMES H. VEAL: After Mary Emily died, James Veal married Martha McClellen and had one
daughter, Elizabeth. He than married Martha Underwood by whom he had six more
daughters - Sarah, Martha, Josephine, Louisa, Virginia, and Georgia.. On his death in 1892 his land was divided between his six daughters by Martha Underwood. On file is a hand drawn plat that says 'Plat of lands of the estate of James H Veal, late of said county (Hancock Co, GA) situated in 11th district-containing four hundred and ten 9/10 acres and a division of this land surveyed for division on Aug 1 & 2, 1893' by S E Pearson. In this plat it is divided between: Josephine Veal, Sarah C Veal, Martha M Meadows, Louisa J Wood, Virginia C Veal and Georgia A Yarbrough. Bordering property division of Louisa J Wood is Isaac M Wood and J M Harrison. Bordering Josephine Veal is James Underwood and Myles Underwood. Bordering the other property is J M Harrison, James M Archer, William Stanley and looks like Pierce Peeler. Louisa may have gone by the nickname of 'LOU' Children have been verified by census records. Children of MARY MILLER and JAMES VEAL are: i. ARGANT MARY ELIZABETH3 VEAL, b.
