MILITIA IN AUGUSTA COUNTY, 1742, by Lyman Draper:
Col. James Patton's Company, Wm. Beverly, Lieutenant; Beverly qualified as county lieutenant of Orange County and also of Augusta, at Orange court, November 3, 1741,

The Lincoln County, Kentucky home of Elizabeth Miller Isbell's brother Abraham Miller Sr. is still standing today at 3475 Kentucky Highway 300, Stanford, Kentucky. The house was said to have been built c1785, or 1785-1815 by Abraham Miller. Abraham Miller died by 1786, and it was afterward the home of Abraham Miller Jr., who "was a lieutenant in the War of 1812 and who died in 1834." It was likely Abraham Jr. who built the house. Some say Abraham Miller Jr. (1773-1827) married Sarah Givens and is the Abraham Miller at Find A Grave Memorial# 41962157.
