Hi Dan: I am not sure if your Jacob is in my family, but the Jacob Miller runs through my line. I am taking a Genealogy course this September that is focused on the Millers of Pittsburgh, so I will probably be researching all Millers in Pittsburgh to 1790 and will be trying to eliminate ones that aren't in my family, so I may be getting info on yours, even if he isn't related. I am primarily looking at Augustus Miller, born 1837, married to Mary Anna Hermann, born about 1843. On the 1850 census, the Hermanns are in Ross Township; in 1860 in McClure Township, (which was originally part of Ross); 1n 1880, they are in Allegheny City. My Hermanns owned a brickyard and many of the Millers and Hermanns worked there. Does any of this sound familiar? I have a Jacob born in 1863 who is the son of August. Keep in touch. Sandy
