Have you looked on the Caithness community website -they have a family history page with a section for/ by /on Millers
http://www.caithness.org/history/familyhistory/materimiller/index.htm

OR there's Scotlands People, its a pay to view but well worth a visit. Scottish records are much better than English ones particularly  pre 1837.
Theres always GENUKI of course.

I have a Miller connection

The ScotlandsPeople index of births lists a Joseph Miller born 1916 Wick, Caithness. If this is the correct one his birth certificate should give the names of his parents.
