The first name appears to be a given name of "Hannier", but some sources use "Hannah". The obituary of son George W. Miles refers to her as "Myra Luke Miles". The obituary for a probably daughter Lottie (see that memorial link) refers to the mother as "Maria", so the middle name is, at best, uncertain. Will just use "M" for the middle name initial on this memorial as a result.

The DOB and DOD come from an Ancestry family tree - will assume that the dates are correct, but any clarification would be appreciated. It is possible, in reviewing cemetery transcriptions, that the DOD was not engraved on the headstone.

There were at least four children, probably more: John M. Miles, Lotta Miles, George W. Miles, and Albert Miles.

A Purdom cemetery listing has the following listed as being buried next to George and Hannier, but no DOB or DOD is provided. The name of "Dotto" may be for the daughter "Lotta", but not certain: Ida M., Freddie, Otto, Dotto.

Note: there is a Lottie Lulu Miles Kreiss buried in Purdom Cemetery who may well be the one daughter mentioned above. It could be that an earlier child had a similar first name, died, and Lottie was given her name in that memory. May never know for sure.
