In 1913 Elethea Ann (Barton) Miller (1855-1934), widow of Thomas D. Miller (1842-1886), made application for her husband's military pension. Though Mr. Miller had fought for the Confederacy while serving in a Mississippi cavalry unit, his wife was entitled to his pension from the state she was then living.
Elethea Miller made her home in Duckett, Howard County, Arkansas according to the pension record. In 1932 she supplemented her pension request, indicating a current address of Mena, Arkansas.

BTW, Thomas Miller's middle name was given on his son's birth certificate. I've seen it spelled phonetically, but will use this spelling until I find a better source.
