In 1850 Census of Tensas County, Ebenezer Miller is listed as 50 years old,
occupation planter. No wife or children
are listed--instead his household consisted of James R. Wilson, overseer, and
Wilson's wife and two children.Zilpah McGinty to Susan Miller, 18 June 1843: "The friends and relations are
all very well in this section at present,
mothers health has been very good for two or three months past, much better
than it was during the winter. Phillip

child died. Since the child could not be
more than 15 in 1850, it is not Benjamin R. Miller, who was listed as married
and with a one year old child in that
census.The Concordia Intelligencer (Vidalia) contained a notice that a James Ballard
died at the residence of Ebenezer
Miller, in Waterproof, La. on July 11, 1847 (article in Lousisana Genealogical
