Samuel Miller was described as having had black hair and blue eyes, and came with his parents to Rockbridge when he was ten years old. Like his father Henry, Samuel served in the Revolutionary War, and him and his wife Margaret lived on his father's homestead in Rockbridge.  In their later years the old home passed into the hands of their son Samuel II, and wife, Janetta Wilson, who cared for his parents until their death.  Their house was always open to the numerous relatives who came from Timber Ridge, Kerr's Creek, Collierstown, and other parts of the county, to visit "Uncle Sam" and "Aunt Peggy."
