Samuel Christy-Miller
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Samuel Christy-Miller, originally Samuel Christy and from 1862 by royal licence actually Samuel Christie Miller [1] (1810–1889) was an English businessman and politician.
Life
He was the second son of Thomas Christy of Essex, eldest son of Miller Christy, and Rebecca Hawlings.[1][2] He became a partner in the hat-making firm Christy & Co.[3]
Christy was related, though distantly, to William Henry Miller, who died in 1848. He inherited indirectly from Miller an estate, and a noted library, in 1852.[3][4] At that point he changed surname to Christy-Miller. Miller had been Member of Parliament for Newcastle under Lyme, and Christy-Miller also stood successfully for that constituency.[5]
