Edith (Younkin) Miller
(1880-1920)

Susan "Edith" (Younkin) Miller was born on April 10, 1880, at South Milford Twp., Somerset County, PA, the daughter of William "Shedrick’" and Caroline (Cupp) Younkin.

Edith married George A. Miller (1875-1941). He was five years older than his bride.

The Millers had one son, Harry W. Miller.

George was a “well known” locomotive engineer with the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad.

Sadly, Edith died at the family home in Rockwood in November 1920, "following a long and painful illness," reported a local newspaper. She was only 40 years of age.

As a widower, George lived at 531 Broadway in Rockwood. He later married Elizabeth Liston ( ? - ? ). After retiring from the B&O, George died at age 65 on April 6, 1941. He was buried in the Rockwood IOOF Cemetery.

Son Harry settled in Unity, near Pittsburgh. His fate is unknown.
