Biography
Lewis Miller was born in Rensselaer County, New York, on June 11, 1787, the son of Josiah Miller and Paulina Titus, and the brother of Elijah Miller, whose daughter Frances married William H. Seward. He was a farmer by occupation.

In 1833, Miller was living in Clinton, Michigan, but wrote to his niece that he was planning to move further west. He moved to Moscow, Michigan, that year, where he was the first postmaster.

He was a delegate to the state's constitutional convention in 1835, and was elected as a Democrat to the Michigan House of Representatives that fall, where he served one term.

He died on February 14, 1856.
