Notes - From the Descendants of John Christopher Miller and Hannah Franciska Stratman:
"Catherine was baptized on March 3, 1856 at St. Thomas Lutheran Church in Fairfield County, Ohio. She and Curtis went to housekeeping on a farm southwest of Clearport, Ohio. They moved from Ohio to Catlin, Illinois, in February of 1883 with their family consisting of six children at that time, a sizable amount of furniture and quite a lot of stock. One of her brothers, David, went with them to care for the stock during the trip. For some years, Catherine and Curtis lived south of Catlin and then they purchased a large home and farm on the north side of town. Curtis is a brother to Mary Elizabeth, who married Catherine's brother, George Martens. To this union, ten children were born: Perry, Jennie, Russell, Ellen, Clay, Ethel, Harry, Maude, Lena and Carrie."
