This may be helpful to you. Our family descends from Wiley R. Gandy, brother of Thomas H. Gandy. Thomas was married to Melita Jones and had daughters Martha C., Elizabeth J., Mary Ann and Nancy P. before he married Permelia.Elizabeth J. married John J. Miller and gave birth to John T. Miller. She evidently died at his birth.
