The Samuel Miller papers were received by the Marine Corps Museum
in 1967 and are particularly useful in documenting the Marine Corps
participation in the Florida Indian Wars in 1836 -37. The
collection is largely composed of Miller's official correspondence
during the 1836-37 Indian campaigns but it also includes an
interesting, if somewhat miscellaneous, selection of personal and
official material from such documents as an apparently unique
Muster Roll of the Marine detachment at the Battle of Bladensburg
1814, to the correspondence relating to his participation in an
abortive duel.
