Stephen Miller was born in about 1750 in North or South Carolina. He married Mary C. Bishop. They had five children. Descendants and relatives lived mainly in Kentucky and Ohio.
North Carolina contributed more of her sons to the Confederate cause than any other state. The 37th North Carolina, made up of men from the western part of the state, served in famous battles like Chancellorsville and Gettysburg as well as in lesser known engagements like Hanover Courthouse and New Bern. This is the account of the unit's four years' service, told largely in the soldiers' own words. Drawn from letters, diaries, and postwar articles and interviews, this history of the 37th North Carolina follows the unit from its organization in November 1861 until its surrender at Appomattox. The book includes photographs of the key players in the 37th's story as well as maps illustrating the unit's position at several engagements. Appendices include a complete roster of the unit and a listing of individuals buried in large sites such as prison cemeteries. A bibliography and index are also included.
Miller was the 16th of 18 children in a poor family. He served in World War II with the legendary unit made famous in HBO's "The Pacific." Once home, he worked in the coal mines and toiled in darkness for 37 years. This book is the epic story of a young man's journey from the most notorious battles of World War II to the most dangerous occupation in America.
Research on the Cox family genealogy was begun by Rev. Simeon O. Coxe (1877-1955). Verl F. Weight (one of the many descendants of the Cox family) and Mrs. Charles W. Cox (Willie Miller) further researched, compiled and published the information into the first edition in mimeographed copies in 1962. When time took its toll on these copies and years of work began to fade away, Mary Carol Cox volunteered to retype and publish As A Tree Grows into a paperback book.
Talton Woodie married Elizabeth Loggins in South Carolina and moved to ". . . what is now Ashe Co., North Carolina, some time before the 1800's."
