Walter Miller, whose untimely death brought sorrow to his devoted family and deep regret to a wide circle of friends and acquaintances in Enniskillen township, Lambton County, was one of the enterprising and prosperous farmers of that section. He was born Oct. 6, 1832, near Glasgow, in Rosburghshire, Scotland, son of John and Mary (Archibald) Miller, also natives of Scotland.
...
Walter Miller was educated in Scotland and came to Canada in his youth. He married Miss Margaret Kirkland, who was born in 1835 in Scotland, and they settled in Haldimand County, near Hamilton, for a short time before coming to Enniskillen, Mr. Miller at that time being engaged in the milling business. In 1854 he settled on a farm beside his father's farm, and from that time until his death he was engaged in agriculture...
