Herwin Miller's mother was actually Ottilie Pommerantz, John C Miller's second wife.They were married in 1882 in Huron County.Ottilie was the sister of my great-grandfather.She died around 1890.John and Ottilie had four known children: Edith b. 1883; Benjamin, b. 1885; Bertha b. 1886; and Herwin b. 1889.Ottilie was also known as Tillie Windisch because she used her step-father's surname.Her parents were Julius and Johanna Pommerantz of Pommern, Germany.Julius died in Germany and Johanna immigrated with her three children, including Ottilie, to Huron County in 1871.She remarried Adolph Windisch in 1872.
