Miller, Holden T., was born in the town of Byron, N. Y., February 1, 1841, a son of Wheaton S. and Emmarett
(Southworth) Miller. His father was one of the prominent business men of Western New York and a leading man in
his town. Although never admitted to the bar, he had acquired a large practical knowledge of the law, and was accustomed
to the management of important legal matters. He was a remarkable man, was very widely known and universally respected.
He died in 1865. Holden T. Miller was educated in the public schools and Genesee Wesleyan Seminary at Lima. He
engaged in the mercantile and produce business for twenty-one years, and February 15, 1879, came to Batavia and
entered the Bank of Batavia as cashier, which position he still holds. In 1865 he married Cecelia G., daughter
of Jacob Wiggins; they have one son, Wheaton S. Miller. Mr. Miller was supervisor of Byron four years, from 1868
to 1871. He enjoys the well-earner reputation of being one of the best business men of the county, and his advice
has often been sought by his neighbors and by investors. He has always been a Republican and has been very influential
in the party.
