Chester Lee Stiles and Hannah Milburn
In my last post I gave a brief outline of Thomas Daily's family. In that outline I also mentioned his great-grandson, Lee Stiles. Lee grew up in the Mishawaka, Indiana area and stayed there for his whole life. At one point in early 20's he made a trip to Pike's Peak with a friend, which would have been in the early 1860's. Eventually he married a young lady from the area named Hannah Milburn. The two of them had two daughters, one who stayed in the area all her life, and one who moved on to Texas and continued her life there. I have posted here a picture of both Lee and Hannah.

The writer in me is seeing a story in Hannah's face; so striking!
