Millers of Bridport Dorset England.

 Smiley

Hi interested to hear from anyone with links to the Miller surname in Bridport Dorset.

My Gx2 Grandad was a George Miller born in Bridport Dorset, He moved to Swansea in S.Wales UK, and married a Catherine Thomas, where he remained until his death. His father was also a George Miller Mother?,

It was said that these Miller's were hauliers of Portland Stone.

I can give more details of the Miller's in the Swansea area not so much on the Dorset region. If you are interested you will find a link to my personal website within my profile

Hi Jen,

I have no Millers in my tree, but if you are looking for data, as well as contacts, have you tried
http://www.dorset-opc.com  yet ? / already ?

I entered "miller bridport" and "search for all words" and found 125 hits.
Maybe some of yours', too ?

Good luck,
Bob

I have infact used this site (and it is excellent) but not for my Millers, I have used it for my Cann's (also in this region).
Thanks for that I will do a Miller search in a mo!
