![]() | Miller Family and Homestead, Fire Place Neck Road, Brookhaven, NY Perhaps taken around 1900. Second from the far right is Ellen Carman Miller. The quality of the photograph makes it impossible to identify others with certainty, although it has been suggested that the man to the far right with a hat is George Miller, and that the woman behind Ellen Carman is perhaps Margaret Hanna, a family servant who is buried with the Millers in the nearby family cemetery. The people to the left have not been identified. | |

Headstones | ![]() | #080.12 N. Clinton Miller ... while there is an entry in the Homan Private Cemetery inventory manuscript at the Brookhaven Town historian's office with the birth and death dates recorded, it is suspicious that he should have been interred there at that late date. Others have placed ? marks on the manuscript by his name. Contemporary newspaper accounts of his death indicate that he was interred at the Oaklawn Cemetery (#21), Brookhaven Hamlet, NY. |

Directly behind the "Miller" plot monument is that of N. Clinton Miller. Frederick, Sr., Nathaniel Clinton and George Miller were brothers, and sons of Nathaniel Miller, Jr. Dr. Nathaniel Miller, Nathaniel Jr.'s father, settled in Brookhaven hamlet (then Fire Place) about 1813 and established a large farm that stretched across Fire Place Neck from Beaver Dam creek on the west to Little Neck Run on the east. These earlier generations and other members of the Miller family are interred at the Miller family cemetery on the former farm. Plot: 021/022. N. Miller & N. Clinton Miller |
