Family information includes books published on Jacob Miller and Anne Marie Theigen family. They settled in Southwest Louisiana after they sailed from Maryland on the English schooner La Bretana and held hostage at the fort of La Bahia del Espiritu Santo. They later made their way to Louisiana in 1769. New editions of these books are available beginning 2/14/11.
Books on the Pierotti or Pierrottie families will be found here. Constantino "August Constant" Pierotti emigrated to Eunice, La. from Italy where he married Stephanie Martel in 1866 after he served in the Civil War. The 2011 version of this book is now available.
The three family and the three photo books on Jacob Miller families of southwest Louisiana includes thousands of Miller descendants. This purchase may be a financial burden for some families. I have therefore provided family books that provide a family with all their immediate family information and the ancestry information of that family member is also included. For example the Jacob Miller, Jr. book includes all of Jacob Miller, Jr.'s descendants that I have accumulated. Moreover, family information of his mother and father and copies of any documents, sketches and photos pertaining to the family is included in this book, the Jacob Miller, Jr book. Books arranged in a similar manner include the "Gus" Miller book and the Pierre Valcour Miller book. Therefore if you are interested in your family line only and your family ancestry includes Jacob Miller, Jr., Gus Miller or Pierre Valcour Miller, you may purchase these books for your family history. These can be purchased at www.lulu.com by searching for the book name or the author's name, i.e. Murphy Miller.
