Early and family life

Miller was born at Apple Grove in Meigs County, Ohio. Around 1850, his family moved to Millwood, Virginia in Jackson County, in what later became West Virginia, and he received a private education suitable for his class, since Virginia had no public schools at the time. He graduated from the Ohio University at Athens.

He was a member of the West Virginia House of Delegates in 1890 and 1891.

in 1892, his bid to become a judge of the State Supreme Court failed. However, three years later Miller won election to the Fifty-fourth and Fifty-fifth Congresses (March 4, 1895 – March 3, 1899),[2] he was not a candidate for renomination in 1898. He returned to the practice of law and also farmed.
