I wonder what the connection with the Millers was?

I'm guessing she's Roberts mother, the Malsters wife?
Deaths Dec 1872 (>99%)
MILLER Elizabeth 84 Worksop 7b 21 the age is a bit off?

Hi Everyone,
You guys and dolls never cease to amaze me. Whilst I have been away working you have still been compiling stuff. Your appetites are ravenous for information. Once your on the trail, like a dog with a bone, you don't let go. Ref your last Lindsey. Elizabeth Hogg [from the 1st marriage] born 1829 Worksop who assumed the Miller name is possibly the one whose age seems a bit off? I owe you all beers for this huge amount of info you have given me, so if you ever get to England let me know. I am going to do an overlander next year from UK to Oz on the tour bus so I hope then to visit the places the Millers and McEwens lived at. Thank you all again.

Hi Linsey,
Correction to my last.
Elizabeth Miller died Dec 1872 Worksop [7b 21] age 84. 1871 census states she is living on the income of houses and land when she was living at 14 Bridge Place, Worksop, Notts.

Hi everyone,
I have come across an article of the 73 Regt soldiers from UK who stayed in Australia at their own request. There is a Daniel and John McEwan and a John Miller plus a James , Michael and 3 Thomas Millers. Do you think this is possibly the missing piece of the jigsaw, where John McEwan met up with John Miller and they formed close ties?
