Looking for information on Ellis Challis Miller b. circa 1840 in Norfolk, England, son of Robert Miller and Lettia Mary Challis. Moved to Fort MacLeadd in late 1870's? m. Carrie Wright of Dundas, Ontario, 1882. Considerable information concerning his sister Helen Louise Miller (Mrs Armiger Ibbot Hubbard) of Norfolk and Ancaster, Ontario. Ellis Miller rumoured to be member of North-West Mounted Police.

If anyone is interested in Fort Macleod, I have a photo c. 1890 of their log house.

Hello,

And thank you for the information. I have a terrific photo of their log house in Fort MacLeod, but am not sure how to post that.

These are the correct people, and Carre's maiden name is Wright, from Dundas Ontario.

According to a previous post, Ellis was one of the first NW Mounted Police.

Thank you for posting this.
