Spouse:
Russell Vernon MILLER was born on 23 April 1912 in Jackson County, West Virginia[2] and died 5 June 2000 in Jackson County, West Virginia. He was the son of Grovener C. Miller (Born: 4 November 1869 in Jackson County, West Virginia; Died: 22 October 1950 in Wood County, West Virginia) and Mary Blanche PORTER (Born: About 1874 in Ohio; Died: 23 June 1950 in Jackson County, West Virginia).

Erma Fae (ODELL) MILLER was my grandmother's sister, she was the one who gave my mother her first name of Marcella. The story I was told was that my grandparents had the middle names picked out for both of their children, but not the first names. When asked for suggestions, Erma said Marcella and my grandmother used that name as my mother's first name. My grandparents always called their children by their middle names and did not use their first names except in legal documents.
My mother, M. PICKRELL used to play around with her cousin, Phyllis MILLER, who was Erma's daughter. One day, they were playing at her Aunt Lennie (WILCOX) LEEPER's house, they saw her wild rose bushes and decided to pick roses. Little did they know that the bushes were infested with poison ivy and they both had a reaction to it. My mom's eyes swelled shut and Phyllis was highly allergic to it and had a really bad case of it. My mother got blamed for the incident by Erma.
Their daughter, Phyllis Jo MILLER, was killed along with five other individuals in a car accident on 12 September 1960 in Jackson County, West Virginia. She was only about 13 years old at the time of her death.
