Notes
- The first record I found for this person was the 1910 census, when he is living with his own household, next door to his widowed father George H Miller and his older single brother Tom. The name of the head of household looks like Jeane, which I cannot make sense of as a man's name.
1910 Federal Census, Arkansas County, Arkansas, 11 May, Northern Prairie Township, District 12, page 11B, Hse/Fam #208
Miller, Jeane Head M W 22 Married 5 yrs AR MS AL Farmer Rents

George, with son Tom in his hsouehold are living next door to Jeane.

This information led to the 1920 census, in which George has been wrongly transcribed and indexed as George W instead of George H.

A genealogy found at this point with the extra clues I had, clarifies the name. Jean's full name was Eugene, but his nickname was spelled Jean, rather than the common form for a male name, Gene. In the 1910 census, his name is entered as Jeane.

In Jean's WWII draft registration his wife is called Sallie M Miller. With her lising as May in 1910, this tells us her full name was Sarah May, despite the genealogy above naming her Mary.

Her name in the 1940 census again uses her nickname, enumerating her as Sallie May. I have still not found her maiden name as of May 2013.
