Photo History
CAPTION:
Taken in Gilman c 1920
Ida was born April 12, 1906 to Joseph and Beata (SIMONS) MILLER.
Her parents: Joseph and Beata (SIMONS) MILLER were married
October 5, 1902
in Eagle County. Beata died in 1910. When the 1910
census was taken on April 29, Beata was missing from the
family. Ida and older sister Anna were living with their
father. Shortly after Beata's death, Joseph took his
daughters to an Aunt to raise them, as he couldn't take care of
them and make
a living also. The Aunt decided she couldn't take care of
the girls either, so put them in an orphanage. Joseph was
eventually able to get them back and brought them home to Gilman.
