Fond du Lac, WI, H S Miller dies at age 70 (Based on information from
family trees shown on Ancestry.com. No other records have been found
to support this.)
Most examples of H S Miller’s photography work found, were from the
period when he was working with Cyrus Chadbourne, between about 1874
and 1884.

Unfortunately, this is not Henry S Miller
but W R Miller of Minneapolis
