The reunion was held at the home ranch on Elk River 15 miles northwest of Howard on August 20th.   This was the first time in twenty years that the family has all been at home at one time.

John A. Miller and his wife Elizabeth have five sons and six daughters all living, whose names and addresses are:

Giles H. Miller and Hobart R. Miller, Clovis, New Mexico; Mrs. Mabel Hollander, Hamilton, Kansas; Mrs. Bessie Rauch, Beaumont, Kansas, Mrs. Mary Hawkins, Sacramento, California; Mrs. Emma Johston, Enid, Oklahoma; George E. Miller and Alta Norman, Wasco, California; Buford J. Miller, Cropsey, Illinois; Chester A. Miller and Miss Nondus Miller, Piedmont, Kansas.

Mr. and Mrs. Miller are pioneers of Elk County, having come to Kansas in their childhood.  Shortly after their marriage they homesteaded the ranch where they resided until 1920, when they moved to Piedmont.  All the children except the oldest son were born on the homestead.
