HENRY D. MILLER.
Henry D. Miller, who is engaged in general farming, was born May 25, 1869, on the farm in Lykens township, Crawford county, upon which he now resides. He is a son of Christian Miller, deceased. He attended the common schools in his youth and also assisted in the cultivation of the fields upon the old homestead, thus early becoming familiar with farm work in its various branches. When eighteen years of age he took charge of the old homestead, practical experience having well qualified him for the work. Since that time he has managed the farm, and its well cultivated fields and neat appearance indicate his careful supervision. He is an industrious, progressive farmer, and he annually harvests good crops. He now owns one hundred and seventeen acres of the old home place in Lykens township and is therefore numbered among the substantial young farmers of the community.
On the 28th of November, 1895, Mr. Miller was united in marriage to Miss Ida Margraff, a daughter of Charles and Leah (Miller) Margraff, and they now have one child, Donna Blanche, who is a most interesting member of the household. Mr. Miller is well known in Crawford county and his fellow citizens of Lykens township have honored him with office. He served as assessor in 1894 and 1895, and in his political affiliations he is a Democrat. His religious faith is indicated by his membership in the Reformed church,, and he holds social relations with the Knights of Pythias lodge of Lykens. He is a charter member of the organization and has filled all of its offices. A wide-awake and progressive farmer, he well deserves mention in the history of his native county.
