Mrs. Nancy Miller, one of the oldest residents of the county, died at her home on the plank road in Southport Saturday. She was the daughter of John Weir, one of the earliest pioneers of this section, who came there from New Jersey about 1785 and purchased a large tract of land of the government. Mrs. Miller was born in 1808 on the same farm where she died, this being part of the original purchase of her father.
Sarah Waier b. 1766, sister to John, m. c. 1780 Wilkes Jenkins and she d. 5 Sept 1797.
Nancy Waier b. 4 Dec 1761, sister to John, m. 8 Sept 1780 John Winkler.
I fell across this while searching for the family of my Alfred C. Weir b. 1819 m. 1844 d. 1889 Rushford, Allegany County, NY. Don't know as this is my family but they are interesting.
Good luck,
Karen
