Thank you both for your help.I had found the 1900 census record where the Miller name is not present.Records are only as good as the people who record them, aren't they?!As for the birth cert for Grandma Lillian: my mother-in-law remembered having to go to the courthouse in Havre when she was younger with affidavits from friends and relatives about Lillian so she could get a birth certificate.Apparently there had been a fire that destroyed hers & her siblings' originals.I don't know who ended up with that document, but I'm sure it's lost forever.Hopefully, the courthouse should still have a copy.Grandma Lillian also ended up in Oregon.She is buried there.My husban & I are still searching through docs left behind when his parents passed away, so I'm holding out hope of at least finding her death cert.I will be following all your wonderful advice. Again, thank you both for all your help.It is very much appreciated!
