It is said that John Miller, was the ancestor ofthe Miller family in East New Jersey, and that his sons William, Andrew, Enoch, John, and Aaron, and daughter Hannah, came to New Jersey from Long island, then called " Nassau Island."
There is the record of a deed in the Clerk's Office in Newark, N. J. from John Stanbrough and John Norris, of Southampton, in the county of Suffolk, in the Island of Nassau, Province of New York, to William Miller, of Elizabethtown, N. J. for a hundred acre lot of land No. 55, dated August 30th, 1727. This was the second lot north west of the village of Westfield, and whereon Alderman William Miller lived and died. The next year, May 2d, 1728, William Miller purchased of his brother, Andrew Miller, of Smithtown, Nassau Island, the next lot north west of the above. Therefore it would seem that John Miller, the father, lived on Long Island, and not in Westfield.
